I always come back to walling Kino. I AM a Kino fanatic, after all. Pictures of young Kino are quite rare -- in fact, the only two I really know of are the two DVD covers for the Japanese release of disc 2, which contains the episode relating to that story. I'm rather fond of young Kino, as she shows a youthful exuberance that her mature, older self seems to have lost. Since I already walled the original DVD 2 cover, it was only natural that I would eventually wall the rerelease DVD 2 cover, which I scanned from the second visual novel. The premise was simple -- young Kino leaning out of her window in her family's inn. I basically extended the building by adding a third window (the original image had 2) and redid the wall and then used some recycled stock sky for, well, the sky. At first I had extended the building across the entire image, but the repetitive windows were quite boring. Besides, the blue is a nice contrast to the stucco wall's yellows, and it also allows for icon space on both the left and right. I added some extra brightness to the coloring on Kino to bring her out of the rest of the image. Add in my stock Kino logo, and my stock Kino canvas texture, and there you go.
