As an animation, Bakemonogatari has a simple, clean art style. But the guest illustrations for the series are anything but simple! So, it's great to see that °Tens took on a more complex illustration and made it his own with vector gradients so fine at points it more resembles painting that vectoring. Do have a look at this beautiful wallpaper!
Ha ha ha now I'n super anoying on the next level next ima grunt a strain for 15 whole minutes! until veins pop out and my my hair glows yellow like i was a part of some nuclear fall out
yes, this is a painting, and its a night scene XD. I dont know, the title "nocturne" just popped up in my head because I used to play piano until a couple months ago and I remember one of the composers had some nocturnes.
you would think I would get a little smarter after I did my kenshin wall and half the people couldnt even see what was in the wall because it was so dark. I have a feeling that this is going to have the same problem. Oh joy.
well ive been working on this for a couple months now, but its been an on and off thing. I originally started on this for the paint-o-rama let there be light contest. I was just thinking about letting it rot away in my computer but I felt that it would be a waste since I spent so much time on it. so since this wall took so long to make, I want to avoid a huge summary and I'll see if I can get a really short list of stuff I did
-took me a week to vector and paint this (im slow)
-painted sky, ocean, mountains, water, fog..blah blah
-added texture from DA!

yea, cheza cant fly i think. But there was a scene where she got into the water after they got out of that scary forest or cave or what ever it was (i watched WR a while ago) to bathe in moonlight, and I liked the pose in the scan so I just combined the scenes. I really love wolves so I wish I couldve added a wolf in there.
Id say cheza is about the only female character in an anime that has a relationship with a bishie i like that i approve of. (if that made sense) I actually like cheza a lot XD
wellz enjoy. untextured version available upon request (ye, if many people want to see it i might just add a link. im a bit lazy right now tho)

It's showing up now, sometimes you just need patience. It's a beautiful painting starrliteangel. You did a great job getting the nocturne feel to the wall.
I was wondering when you'd finish that wall :) It looks really good, and all the things that you painted are really, really awesome. The clouds and the mountains are really well done, and the vector looks great too ^^ I don't know how many times I used the word really, but I'll use it one more time XD
Really awesome work. And a really long wallpaper description you got there o_o At any rate, I'm glad to see that you finally finished the wall. +Fav
I really like it! It has a nice atmostphere, and the background seems to kinda zoom into the distance, I guess just because of the lines of perspective. I really can't think of anything wrong with it, it is just a really soft wallpaper. Thanks so much for sharing!
Like the background, love the atmosphere xDDD
really like how you make this wall! its dark *love the darkness* and the things below cheza! 333

Wow...It must have been hard doing the bg...The clouds and the mountain bits, and I believe you did a reflection on the ice or water surface? Not bad...but I think you should have just gone full white..added some snow flakes in the process...cause really..thats how wolf's rain went most of the time...trudging through snow..But, thats just my opinion. Its still good in its own way. Wish you the best in future walls Starlite.

The background is nice, the nightly scenery looks good, though maybe it'd look better with a bit more white. The character is looking good, she fits to the background well. Nice wallpaper.
Beautiful
great atmosphere
the bg is just stunning
i love the peaceful and mysterious mood
just nocturne there is barely readable, but thats not too important
