Made this air gear wall at the request of a friend. just to be clear, akito and agito (the two depicted) are male and they are two personalities within the same body.
i vectored them from a black and white manga scan (chapter 63, i think) that i got from my friend. i then colored and shaded according to my imagination, so the placement of shadows probably isn't right. xD; i deliberately changed the colors of their clothes so they'd fit the color scheme better. lastly, there are some lighting effects (can't tell without a before-and-after comparison). before you kill me, yes, i know there are jaggies. >__<
for the gears (all different, vectored by me), i was thinking about time and the AT mechanism (AT aka those "roller blades", lol). akito/agito being carefree happens once in a blue moon, so the stopped gears = frozen time = opportunity to see this rare instant. (use your imagination! :x) the disintegration of the gears (which was lots of fun to do) add that touch of danger/turmoil/whatever to an otherwise happy scene. the debris also show that demise is befalling them/this moment --> happiness is ephemeral. get it? .__. the clock stuff from the texture (credit goes to DA!) is there because of the whole time thing, but that holds no dominance, seeing as clocks are more of a sano (another character) thing.
the incomplete main text should say "our fragile coexistence". the others say "can this last forever?", "our dreams, our hopes", and "In the wake of our footsteps floats the dust of destruction." what else...oh, 4:3 and 5:4 versions are just crops of the widescreen original. i prefer the original.
note to dan: thanks again for helping me find out the color of their AT. note to saku: i've got my idea for making the scenic version, but it'll take forever since this is a request wall and my friend likes it, i'm submitting.
Its a pretty cool wallie!
Vector looks good!
I just think their pants doens't look harmonic =/
Another kind of blue/gray on their pants would be great!
the backgorund is simple but very cool
congratulations and keep working!
I like the gears design and the colours/texture in the wall. :)
I also like the disintegrating effect on the ends of the gears & wirey things.
Nice colour choices as well.
Just nice job overall. XD
Its freaking cool.
the textures you added to the characters make them look painted instead of vectored
nice colour scheme too.
hmmm... i gues it would jave looked nice if you would have just faded the bands away instead of disintegrating them (or like i would say... mouse munching them...lol)
neway nice work :)

Awesome work =D
I like the vector and the lighting effects are nice and huh!? what jaggies?
My favorite part would be the gears and I like how you seem to integrate the text with them. Maybe a bit more brown (like the color of their slacks) in the gears would be nice, other than that tiny bit, I don't have any complain whatsoever. Gotta fave this ^_^
Wow, what a cool wall !! by the way, could you please make another layout with Akito/Agito style like this? The background is up to you (and if you don't mind, in a darker way please), but please make it in size between 1280x768 and 1920x1080 please~~ I will be appreciate it if you do. Thanks !! ^^
Love the texture and the color palette, the disintegrating gears in different hues and sizes are done so well, I get a happy feel form this well though you explained it otherwise, i like every aspect of it so I'll just fave it and be on my way~
Awesome wall right there. Ag/kito looks great in the wall in that flyingish position. I like the vector and the coloring of it as well as the hooks. Ums, other than that, I like the simple background and the gears/cogs in the background, all in different shades of blue. I like blue ^^. I like this one, ima favorite it ^^.
Fwwoo!
its request, so i understand :3
always like the scenic walls, but i enjoy these abstract type walls, especially since im abstract-impaired. and abstract requires creativity which this just so happens to reek of it :D lol!
i still think it looks like bungee chords >xDD

I tried doing the same crumbling effect on another wall way back when...and now I appreciate how hard it is to make it look 'right'. Major props on getting the gears to 'crumble' properly. Also, me loves the color of the bg :3
Vector is awesome, your wall is awesome as usual, blah blah :) Nice work. Now, back to that midterm i'm studying for...
I love the crop of this wallpaper! :D You did an amazing job with the background, the blue colors blend so well together and the brush working is very fitting and unique. keep up the great work!
I like what you've done with this. My only complaint would be that the lighting is quite dull and I would like to see some contrast in the colors. I won't fav since I've got higher expectations from you.
