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 =.=;
i was out for 5 months ... omg
well i've gotten sick of vectoring , vectoring pictures that already looks cool... like almost all the scans in the scan gallery and other stuffs... im just tired of copying ... well this one is probably the last time i make a picture with a ready lineart which is not made by me ... anyway i started this at least 4 months ago than got lazy , than started again , and suddenly the psd was 4 months old haha time goes fast! this is the manga page which was colored , i used another manga page for the snake's head but i cant find it ...
ps cs2 than cs3 was used ...
oh yes ... anyone who has ever seen that stock texture in the background and know who made it please tell me! thanks =)
also : the writer of those nice black kanjis is the famous woodblock artist Katsushika Hokusai (scanned them from a book xD )
the red ones are random (and its not blood! or it doesnt meant to be blood ... they are just red , wrote with red ink maybe) anyway dunno what all kanji mean but probably nothing =)
you can crop it if you want 5:4 or 4:3 version , sorry there is no other version
hope you like it =)
see ya
okay since everyone said the wood sucks i uploaded it without it , also removed the red kanjis cuz they didnt looked cool without the wood ... WOODLESS
What an awesome looking wallpaper. There's nothing wrong with taking a break from vectoring once in a while and I know how you feel. Vectored, or not, this wall is a very cool piece of work. Excellent work.
WOW!!WOW!!WOW!! thats really awesome wall!i wanted to make one like this b4 .. the idea is perfect ..i love your work with the scan how you made it like sumthin printed in paper or so !..
keep up the great work!

Godly painting skills *_* Sasuke is scary xD I like the wood, it doesn't suck; it's just that it would look better if it were less pixelly and of a darker tone. I love the random kanji, but what's with the "3" above the snake's head? xD
So I'm fairly certain that this is one of the HAWTEST wallpapers I've seen on here! Everything in this one works for me! I think that the whole motif of the paper sits well with the show in general, and that this is probably the Best Paper I've ever seen... Did I mention that this thing rocks? Great use of grunge-ish elements around the edges, and the ink pen style image is just freaking awesome! Anyways If yuo couldn't tell, I think this paper rocks pretty hard... Hope to see lots more good things in the future!!

Wow... I'm totally speechless. I not a fan of Naruto but I gotta love this. The kanji writings are great and the woody texture on the background looks really realistic.
A masterpiece indeed.
This looks very good. Sasuke's image fits in perfectly with the fading blood-stained paper theme. Though most of the outer rims of the paper were done well, I do have to indicate that several parts appear more pixelated than ripped.
Oh you're back at walling! =D
I was waiting for you to make a new one, and it's nice to see you come back with yet another great wall. I love the painted look . < 3
Interesting wallpaper.I love the very back background of the wallpaper.Then the paper effect also looks great.Your colour choice is amazing and the red colour matches the wallpaper and gives a Japanese effect.I love the title and the things you have done with the scan and behind it making the wallpaper amazing.This wallpaper is a fave.Keep up the good work

This is the best wall I've seen on here in quite a while.
There's no particular flashy part that makes me feel the need to comment specifically on it, but you've just done a completely awesome job of putting this all together.

the way of it feels dark without too dark colors in it, that's what I feel. Love it +
I am not especially fan of naruto but I must admit that I admire very much your wallpaper ^^
Simply incredible
