Not too much for me to say about this wallpaper that hasn't already been said: Dalarty has provided a descriptive walk through all the way from the concept idea, to its execution and ultimately its fruition. And you can really see how that careful planning paid off. But it just goes to show, good ideas take time---and a whole lot of patience!
This is in tribute of Mushishi episode 2 AND because i have no entry yet for the CL and FW contest (Lacus and starr are gonna beat me up..).
For people who haven't watched it yet, it's about a girl who was afftected in the eyes by a mushi. because of that, the sight of light hurts her and she decided to isolate herself from the light. yes, and she even blindfolded herself to make sure there's no light that will come to her eyes.
in the wall, it's just a "simplistic" interpretation of her room: boxes, dolls and teacups in the dark. her thoughts about her condition were just reflected by the words at the floor. the window (white frame), well, it is what she sees from her "second eyelid" when her eyes are closed - the mushis that have formed into a bright light surrounding her. they look like sparklies from afar, but up close they look like.. plankton? O.o i just want to show that she hasn't been isolated from all forms of light.
what i hated to do: the main image of the wall! my gosh, i'm telling it now, THERE'S NO SCAN OF THAT ANYWHERE! the body was vectored from Tomoyo from CCS, but the face was something I just vectored in by myself. so if I find other walls with this image, i'm gonna beat them up. ~yada
what i loved to do: NOTHING (except the fact that my credits and siggy on the wall are posted vertically). i'm obviously uninspired so this junk came out. it's just for the sake of the contest. yet, i hope the people understand what i'm trying to prove. watch the episode and you'll get what i mean. ~yada
This is actually pretty cool; i like the idea of the box (and b/w outside of it.) - totally how it was in that episode of the show, and i think you represented it beautifully. the vector is passable. i usually like text on my walls, but the text bothers me here.
great job. +fav for mushishi and that wonderful box.
Very nicely done Blue!!
I love the way it all looks together, and the idea is GEAT!
Also, love the whole composition, and he box. Fav for me, its looking Spiffy!! ^^
When i see this wallpaper for first time i never think this got an image in the background, but i was wrong. The vector is good and the scene is strange but creative. Is an interesting wallpaper.
O__________o I LOVE IT. I love how it fits completely into the Mushishi mood, I love the dark, I love the highlight with the yellow. This wall is absolutely awesome.
Very nicely love. I love the contrast you created using the two colors. It really emphasizes the contents of the box and creates a fresh atmosphere.
Keep going; you did a great job!
Really cool idea. I understand what you wanted to tell with this wall and I think it was successful. But still too grey for me (but its just personal). I love that it tells a bit story and it has a nice mood. The yellowish part is great it gives some life to the wall. Keep up the good work! (And I love the shadows in the background.)
Mushishi the one anime that nothing happens and it doesn't have s script to follow but it's still good. Love the wall too the box filled with "the light behind the eyelinds" is nice.
