This wallpaper gives us a perfect example of how a simple manga scan can be turned into a beautiful vector. Not only did danalm trace the lineart, but he also added amazing details and a simple, yet wonderful background. Furthermore, the wallpaper shows us how the monochromatic style can make your work look really interesting.
Great, now im going psycho... it may be possible ive been spending a few hours searching for a scan that i think i saw but truly never existed... it was all in my head =.=;
Just for the love of the Death Note anime, manga and movie. I got the image of the apple from the Death Note Movie Wallpaper from. Writing death note itself took a long time. So yup. Really simple wallpaper. Please give credit if used.

This is way too simple and wont be approved, have you tried possibly adding ryuk in? add yes the apple needs re-extracted, i recommend getting an apple from an actual death note scan also.

Well...... I think it´s very simple. About the text, I like it, it´s very good. The apple looks very reall. The background...mmmhh...Maybe you can add something to it like some effects or what ever you want. It´s too dark. If you do that, this wallpaper will be very cool!

I like the concept a lot, and i'm a really big fan of deathnote. the apple does need to be re-extracted theres some grey around the border thats very noticable and it is a little plain. just as a suggestion maybe you could drop the text down to the bottom half about midway through the lower plane. and then in the top insted of having the entire image of ryuk maybe just his hand reaching out like it was about to catch something and try to make the apple look like it was being thrown from the other side. movement in an arc with a trail, in the direction of ryuk's hand. just a thought
For the first page inside a book this looks good. For a background… not so much.
Yes the font is nice, yes the apple is an important/common symbol in the series.
But, honestly, what are you trying to say with this piece?
I have no feelings towards this either way. When I look at it I do not feel moved or really any emotion at all. It more or less seems to be an advertisement.
I do like the use of a real apple, though the lighting has its problems, and it would be great if you could incorporate it into the final piece.
I think the best thing would be to ask yourself what you want this piece to say when you are finished or what you want the audience to feel and start from there.
Well, I don’t think there’s much more I can say at this time without more to look at. So good luck and have fun.

I find it very simple. nothing more.
as what people said, the apple needs more work.
the bg is all black with nothing on it, put something on it!
the text, hmm, who is speaking, "i am justice" the notebook? >_<
try working on that too. and finally goodluck on the wall making.
I think ill spare you the "simple" comment since its been said in every comment, a great wallpaper can totally be made from this, just needs more elements to get it there... theres not much to critique on so ill give out some ideas that might help:
- the title is ryuk's apple so maybe put an image of him somewhere, i'm thinking a enlarged picture of ryuk's face in the background
- possibly a font change "i am justice" doesn't match "death note"
- a much larger and less realistic image of the apple
hope that helps... good luck! 0_o
Well..
U can add ryuk in the background and may be blend it in so that the image looks more like an impression. you can use a bitten apple as shown in the series so that it reinforces your title!
The idea is really good though!

Re-extracting would be easy enough to do too. :D
