While there are a few, stray building angles and shadows, you find that your eye forgives the minor details and instead focuses on the overall scene that is larger than life, with lights trailing off into infinity.

What does the really long title mean?
"Koko wa Samurai no Kuni da" basically means "This is Samurai country/land" (and it also happens to be the name of my favorite song on the OST). I fell in love with this anime/manga ever since the preview in my Monthly Shonen Jump in Janurary 2006. I'm not going to go into the detail about what it means in relation to the wall, but I can say "GO WATCH GINTAMA!1!"
Anywho, this wall is completely vectored! Even my ugly rocks (which were done from scratch 'cause my internet wasn't working so I couldn't get any new stock). You can get the .PNG of the vector here @ EDD. The background swords are duplicates of Gintoki's sword 'cause I'm waaaay to lazy to vector new ones.
Original scan.
To be honest, the background is rather empty. I couldn't think of anything that would make it seem fuller without making it too cluttered and whatnot. So any suggestions would be appreciated.
Oh, and rain never falls down, it falls on an angle, so I'm not changing the rain!
Oh yeah:
Time: 10+ hours altogether
Layers: 46
Texture from DA! and cloud stock from Mayang.
Umm... I think there was more to say, but I can't remember :\
More resolutions available @ EDD as well as a Rain tutorial =D
EDIT: Made the rocks less strong and lowered the opacity of the rain on the rocks.

Nice Work
well done Chloe-chan
Congrats, really O.O
Sorry for my bad English... ^^
Great wallpaper! It's nice to see a serious Gintama wallpaper. And great job on the vectoring, too. I really like this one, good work.
Check out my new wall: ...LET ME TAKE YOU OUT... [NitroPlus]
Vector of Swords and Dark Background are Very Good. Thanks for Your Work.
So if the bg was really complicated it would take away from the charas. So yesh, I like it better this way XD.
I think the major thing thats bothering me in this wall is the lighting. I cannot figure out for the life of me what kind of lighting this is. Are they in the moon? Just the lighting on the characters looks very odd. Its really hard to explain...I think its the fact that the skies are covered in low hanging clouds with certain areas letting light through, but while the sky gets really dark above the characters, theyre really bright. well, not bright, but they obviously have some source of lighting. I think theyre just a little too light compared to the bg..I would just suggest making them a bit darker? I dont know.... =()
