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!
Not thinking of the extent of movie fluff. I'm thinking to the extent of a common place thug. It is more the concept of preventing criminal stupidity from causing more proublems.
Well, since the original did not go over too well with the fans, I'm taking it down and submitting this alternate version of the wall that I did. After a bit of advice from friends and fellow wallers, I'm hoping that this version of the wall goes over better than the last few attempts, especially since I poured so much time into redoing the background, taking new ideas, and trying new techniques. Let's see what happens, eh? :D
I've gotten many varied opinions on this wall. Some liked the original idea, some liked my new idea, others hated everything about it! But, that's what criticism is, and I'm glad that some people can be honest about it. And I do agree with many people, I didn't have anything going on in the left side of the wall (which was nice for me, since that's where all of my icons and such are). But! I decided to cook up another version of the wall to see how it went, and now I present it to you, members of AP, for you, the viewers, are one of the biggest reasons I do this. That, and it's fantastic practice :D
Enjoy! And please feel free to voice your opinions and suggestions, I'm a big fan of critiquing.
You shouldnt use the same picture twice in one wp. It doesnt look good.
your placement of the pictures is not good since you have this large pic on the side and then just one small pic on the left. multiple focal points ruin a canvas. i dont like the dirty texture that is used.
Left side seems too empty, maybe you should implement a text or something, and plus you should consider shifting Haruhi a bit to the left, so her body doesn't collide with the edge of the wall.
Apart from those things, the wall is adequately good. Nice work. ^^
Well, you know I'm not a big fan of dark walls, so I'm not gonna complain about that. I am going to agree with °haruhis2kyon that the left side is a bit open and that Haruhi needs to be moved over a bit. Otherwise, I think this is a fine wall. ^_^
Well, at least you removed the ghost Haruhis. I like this version better, though you could have done something about the emptyness, I guess it's good for a desktop full of icons.
This wall gives some funny feeling, I keep getting the idea the wall's eating her. o.o
Nice job overal =)
It's Nice Wallpaper.
Haruhi Suzumiya is Gloomy in This Wallpaper.
Dark Background with Dim Focus and Her Eyesight Watching Far Far away Express Sorrow Atmosphere.
However, I Know Suprising Scene Afther This. This is Calm before Hurricane.
Thanks for Your Good Work.
I like it!
The darker colours of the background seem to really suit the expression on her face.
She looks shocked to me.
I like the way there's plenty of space of Desktop icons!
Favourite!
When I saw this picture first, I thought she is very lonly person. You expressed her melancholy well. The black background and her face expression are harmonized wonderful! I like that atmosphere expressing like solitude, loneliless or a little sorrow.
Very nice work, purple, my favorite color. I really like the way you inhanced the character. The back ground isn't as magical as the character seems, but that has no bearing on the quality of the wal in general. I made my fav, and I also would like to post on Artist-Realality, do you mind?
Thank-you for your work. Very impressive.
She looks so.. melancholic. ^___^
I do have to say that I like this one. I have too much clutter on my desktop, so it's a good thing that there's a bit more space on the left side!
I actually really like how simple it is and that she's placed to the side - my only concrit would be that it looks a bit like the left side is eating away her arm.

Credit to ash-hikari for the vector of Haruhi!
(Well it seems like -some- people like it at least, so I'll leave it up then :P)
