After months of work, chanelqueen17 has created a gorgeous scene of Alice and Oz from Pandora Hearts, using scans that didn't even feature both characters together. Even after spending so much time on matching the details of the characters to their new looks, chanelqueen17 didn't stop there and went all out on the background too! This wallpaper definitely needs to be seen!
After a long period of absence from anything artistic I decided to excuse myself from work and studies and try out some completely new techniques and styles (for me). I managed to complete two out the three wallpapers I had in mind. Today I will submit these two and by the end of June I will upload the last one for the summer (or maybe this year).
Submission a.
The specific wall is a vectored one with some extremely sharp features as I was thinking of creating a dramatic scene (something like the end of the world where everything is falling apart). Black, red, grey 50% - 80% and white is the color scheme. Plus, I have added some details where I thought necessary (birds and dead trees)
Scenario:
There’s a creature hiding under the veil of the night, a boy you wish you would never meet…
The shadows of the night,
are unleashed again.
Where their greed begins
the end is near.
A morbid hunger for blood,
lies in their cold black eyes
They've come to take our lives away
One by one they died.
A massacre that took all night
They had no chance, it was no fight
You can't kill what has been killed before,
They died...
With shadows on its tale.
He stepped Through the portal,
locked the door and ate the key.
With his life they took their way to freedom,
and be became the final keeper of the key
…he is the “gatekeeper” of the door that separates heaven from hell.

Ps1. You should definitely point out all the things that “disgust” you in my wallpaper. It’s great to hear/ read your comments, so as to know what should I improve exactly. You guys provide the best possible advice. Consider yourselves as my art teachers^^
Ps2. …Specially dedicated to Danielle cause she loves Dogs (I mean the manga XD)! An amazing person, who has ispired me and helped me out quite some times when I thought of giving up on any kind of art. Danielle we should definitely talk about our collab T_T
I also like Dogs.
Next one for me ok?
lol.
well Why are you doing this to us?now I must Buy another 24 monitor to have both of your work s , for desktops. magnificent. once again. (I hate you for this.) (not)
WOW! Two in a day?! And so damn good? How could you do this thing? (actually i read your description hahahahah!) I think you somehow manage to let us feel what you are feeling with your wallpaper. It's like living the scene myself. I have no idea how could someone do this but you are by far my most favorite waller for that.
I want to say that the character looks yummy, though you scared the hell out of me in your description! Love it so much.

Ohhh awesome wallie..Looks so dark yet so nice and artistic :D really like the white tress and the concept of the wallpaper..Looks really freaking awesome,FAVE+
I like the black and white colour... and the red shirt looks so fit on it...
the birds are great, and the branch too... ^^ i like the so much! thanks for sharing...
Wow. I like how you used red as the sole colour there apart from the black-white colours. It's a pretty cool wall, but I think there's too much going on in the wall so it looks a wee bit messy. It would be perfect if the birds weren't there. Sharp wall though, good one.
It is a little grainy and the contrast almost hurts by eyes, but I love the design (minus those birds; look too brush-y). The expression on the character's face says it all. :)
I love this wallpaper! It's very dark and artistic and I love how powerful the black and white background is and how the character really stands out as he's the only one colored. This is great work! My desktop loves you.
Dogs walls are often really good. This one in particular is outstanding. One thing that stands out is the detail you put into the wall. As Deto said, there are some parts that seem jagged, but for the most part I really like it! Good job.
...Are you trying to kill me with the awesomeness. I know you are. What can i actually say? From the attitude of the character to the creepy feelings i get. Just wow, mouritsa this wallpaper (and the other one) is/ are so totally SPECIAL. Thank you, really. There's something about you as an artist that can not be ignored. +Fav
I believe you pulled the composition very well and the scene is indeed dramatic but it is really a shame it is so jagged. The birds are nicely put but you should have tried some blending to the bg. Same goes for the trees. Maybe you wanted to have a surreal feel? Well my only problem is the jagginess actually. Other than that it is a great effort. Keep it up.
