Hi guys, after quite a while I've finally completed this wallpaper. This took longer than I ever expected as I kept running out of ideas. I just completed watching the series last week, and being honest with myself here, this anime is better than Gundam 00. Although there are various parts that can prove to be really confusing, it always leaves me in suspense whereas the other animes I've watched before explains everything thoroughly to me that it never sets me thinking. Anyway, to get to the point, I decided to make a wall based on Code Geass. I couldn't find a good scan to render from so I just googled around and finally came across this: http://gallery.minitokyo.net/view/337583
Having absolutely no experience with vectoring at all, I decided to patch the unwanted areas up with the paint brush. From then onwards, it's pretty straightforward as I work my way through completion. Overall, making this wallpaper took me over 8 hours, including alot of brainstorming on what scans I should use as there isn't a variety of usable ones to pick from.
C&C will be really appreciated.
User Comments!
The characters are kind of off being that small and not having their lighting changed in any way. (The wallpaper lacks a light source in general.) Overuse of brushing/renders and an overall incoherent feel... No sense of depth.
Not exactly the right positions to be in "versus" for the mechs...

I can see the kind of "feel" you were going for when checking out the scan you used, however you just didn't quite get it right.
Indeed, there is no sense of depth in this wallpaper, perhaps because of the rather bland looking background or the positioning of the mechs. (which could have been improved on)
Points for the brushwork (I love the whole "power oversurge" style brushing you did, mind if I ask what brushes you used?) but the awkward layout is really what prevents this from making the top wallpapers gallery.

Not exactly one of the better wallpapers.
However, props for the electrical surge.
Also I have to agree with puppychow16 and thebigfatwhale have said.
The BG is simply too bland.
And oh, it comes with a Lancelot -- nice~
I like how you used the abstracts to create the energy atmosphere around the Guren's and Lancelot's firing weapons but I'm a bit disappointed because the scene looks a little too crowded by the addition of Kallen and Suzaku. Quoting what puppychow16 said earlier, the reason it lacks a light source because of the addition of the two. For one, they totally draw the attention off the mechs, therefore ultimately confusing the idea of what the wall is all about.
However overall I'm thankful that someone made a Guren + Lancelot wall; it brings back memories of their epic battle~
FUKUSHAHADO FTW!
Overall good effort
like what others have saidd above, and i believe you can do better than that on the background. that said, the lighting aren't quite as even as expected. for example theres 2 bright areas on both sides, and the mid portion isn't too dark to look right. everything just seem to be part of each other now..
that being said, i still think you did a fantastic job on this ;]
there's a cluster on the left
i think it would b even better if you just took out the cahracters and leave on the the machines
