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!

alice edited and vectored from this and several roses semi-vector-paint-ed from this. someone was interested in a walk-through so what i did is outlined here. the changes to alice were made according to the preferences of both myself and my friend. sorry if you find one or more not all that great.
i feel a little disappointed with it because as i did more and more with it, i realized how much more i could still do. so yes, i know, water droplets on her and some petals would be nice. stuff like that. D8 i'll admit to getting lazy.
constructive feedback much appreciated. only widescreen this time since i wasn't too keen on any of the crops.
Oh yay! You finally uploaded it here!
I love the fade-out darkness and the splashes of red. The details in the hair are very nice too. I do think that her face doesn't quite look the same as in the scan, but I do prefer your "colors" and contrast. :)
I definitely like that poem up there, really meaningful. Vector is a nice one too, especially the hair and the roses, and the ripples too. But the eyes, for me, I think the eyes will look good if they were there.
Pain in red ribbon and loneliness in dark background are very calm and silent. It may mean her deep sleeping or isolation. Your drawing in her dress and hair is really delicate and graceful. They are flowing gentle and natural atmosphere in the wallpaper.
Nicely done...
rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr... normally I try not to flip out about this kinda stuff... but I have a minor obsession for violence and darkness. Thus my username "Blood Shadows". I will certainly agree that this is a brilliant piece of art and I believe it deserves higher than a D, but you can't change what has already been done. This kinda art brings back memories from a dark but entertaining part of my life, and it really makes me happy. Anyways, enough rambling on about myself, the eyes could be included to the image to make it nicer but then again, maybe it is a different effect that can be desired.
I really like it, Fav+

Beautiful wallpaper as expected. I love the ripple around the flowers, really neat touch. Beautiful water effects all around. The gray and red color palette is amazing, nice range of gray used. You're a real pro! Have a humble favorite from me!
Wish you could bump your resolutions to 1920x1200 x_x.
I really love this wall. The attention to detail you put in the vector work is something I haven't seen in a very very long time. I've always loved this scan as well and it's refreshing to see some talent work on such a lovely piece. My favorite part is the fading of the dress into the water. The vector lines and the thought you put into that is the best :) I think your interpretation of her expression matches wonderfully with the literature you have going in your comment. While it's nothing like the original scan, it conveys a darker feeling which is excellent for this piece.
I realize you felt you got lazy but I do have one criticism that I think might be helpful if you're ever up to messing with the wall a bit more.
I think that from that perspective, I'm a little concerned with the hair's fade into water. I think a bit more contrast and fade (similar to the way you did her dress on the bottom left) would really really make this piece truly astounding. Also, I think that if she were actually in a shallow pool of water, the water level might be closer to her actual head... rather than where it is currently. Unfortunately, that would take away from the detail you put in her hair, but I think it would make a greater impact overall. Similarly, if some of the water level reached the farthest part of her back (that's fading into the darkness), it might also convey more realism and impact.
Overall, this is a grand piece and one of my favorites from you! Great work :)
Commented on MT already, but I'll do it here too
ASDJKLFHM @@ This wall is gorgeous. All the work you've put into it is worth it.
The details of her hair are absolutely stunning. The roses are really well made and the water is pure win. I really don't know if there are actually any flaws on this wall.
Everything blends together perfectly, this is the best wall I've seen in a while xD
First of all txs for choice this beautiful Scan for your newest work.
Only you has made such an awesome piece of it. ^^
Specialy the water effect is great, I think. It gives this wall an unique look.
Only her face is a bit off. But that is irrelevant for me, and so I will give you a favi.
