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!
Ctrl is useful when you want to control the angle of the vector. Shift is for asymmetric vector. You can combine the two also. One more thing, if you start an other path while pressing shift and that a former path is selected, the two will combined.
I only use ctrl for zooming, backspace I knew because it is the same in PS and AI. The shift and enter I didn't know, those are useful. I ended a path using right mouse on my last node
You have to finish the path to edit it with the node tool. You can finish a path by closing it up or by pressing enter. You can also go back in the path by pressing backspace. I also suggest you to try pressing shift and ctrl while using the Bezier tool^^
ok layers i lost track of allen the reflection and the piano are vectors everything but the moon and clouds were drawn.. this started out as a really simple idea and seemed to get more complicated as i went it's not perfect but i love it ^_^
a big thank you to bern and poey! they gave me a lot of suggestions and help and bern especially was really patient with me and all my silly questions!
thank you for all the suggestions and comments on session zero too!
Holy crud that's awesome, I love the concept, and the piece looks amazing. The only thing I could advise you on is that the realism of the clouds and moon looks too differentiated from the rest of the piece. Good job, I hope to see more from you.
Congratulations on having your wall been accepted. I already told you what i though of it. I like it a lot, has "spirit" and gotta love those colors you choose. Hope this is the beginning of a new bunch of cool wallpapers coming from your mind.
I am your friend come over here and let me cut you

Hooray it got accepted!!Yokata!That goes for a fave and download and then welcome to my beautiful desktop Alisha's wall..I really like the whole idea..especially the piano..for the reflection i won't say anything it scares me even in the series..Well anyway..Congrats Alisha-chan!!I hope we will see more beautiful wallpapers from you!
I love that you chose a D.GrayMan scan for your first wallpaper~ The gray tones mixed with the black are good, makes it look dark and it has the right feel to it ;D You even surprised me as I looked at the window, I didn't notice that you placed a person behind there. Amazing job for your first wallpaper *super jealous* Keep it up!! =D

Woot! Congratulations on your first accepted wallpaper. And you have gone to a black-white art on your first try, and you managed it very well. They greyish tones are on the place, maybe the piano looks a bit flat, but rest seems very fine to me.

The perspective is quite nice ^^.Now for a critique.The clouds and moon look a bit too detailed =S

Okies, first thing that I've noticed, is the shadow of the window.
It seems that the windows have horizontal rectangular divisions,
but on the floor, they get a vertical rectangle.
And for the lighting, I think that the clouds and the moon should look brighter,
since the light that goes inside the room seems to be really bright.
Well, those are the only things that I see that needs to be revised.
But if you ask me, it's actually not noticeable, :D
Woo! Super late comment FTW! You know my reasons for that so we'll skip the reasons why and get onto the actual comment =O
It's a good wall and I like it a lot, I love your use of black and white but the thing I must say I love most is the reflection in the window. A very clever idea, one that like Kit said up there, caught me off-guard. Really good work for your first wall, keep it up and I expect more walls soon Huggledevil =P
