The amount of patience, hard work and an eye for quality is what defines this wallpaper. Character is painstakingly vectored off a real life toy image with references to screenshots. Despite the difficulty level, ~pvc24 still manages to nicely depict the image in anime fashion and yet able to find the mental strength to come up with a background composition that is both aptly fun and pleasant in atmosphere.

Another painted style wallpaper from me. ;D This one was made from a pretty scan of Howl and Sophie that i found in the Adumi Tohru gallery.

Walling Process

This wallpaper is a scan extension from the original scan. I painted the background and tried to imitate it as closely as i could. Then i worked on smoothing out the scan by using the usual smudge technique to give it that smooth painted feel. Then i added in the text. I made the text by using a simple font, and then i added the flowers and make it look like it's merged in with the text. Then the opacity of the text was lowered to blend in better with the background.

Big Thanks to:

Thanks to `asa01, `halcyonTwilight, `sakurab and `Danalm for all the comments and suggestions they gave me while i was working on the wallpaper. Although not all of it worked out as planned, im still quite happy with how it ended up. Besides, i don't think there's anything else i could do with it. So thanks to you all for being patient with me. ;D

Oooh! I'm the first! *^-^*
The extension is SO well-done! You painted it so nicely it blended perfectly with the original scan. I like the scan you picked out~ Love its dreamy color scheme. :)
And btw, I like this version out of all that you've linked, the size of the characters are just right, even though I think they should be placed more over to the left of the wall. The simplicity of the text's font suits the wall well~
Yea...there seems to be too few Howl's wallpapers around...so it's great that you're adding on to the collection! LoL.
Great job! Thanks for sharing~ ^^

Nice painting, Misao. I have seen your wallpaper in your WIP, and was curious when will you add it to APs gallery.
Nothing against the quality it looks very fine to meh :3
I like how you adjusted the text with the flowers.

I had been waiting for this for a long time XD The color of the background looks so pleasant and calming, and it suits the scans very well too ^.^ The circles and the sparkles adds a nice touch to the wallpaper ;) Only I don't quite like the font you chose for the text 'Colored Dreams', but still, the rest of the title looks beautiful~

P.S: Waiting for more wallpapers from you, since you are still free xD

I'm not a big fan of the movie itself, but I do like the couple of Howl and Sophie. Beautiful background, nice, soft with a touch of magical.

Interesting, that's such a mad extension of the scan and actually delivers the 'playful' feel while keeping the traditional look thanks to the colors and painting techniques. The text is an intriguing aspect of the wall and I really can't help but be amazed by the soft circles -- the only flaw of this is that they're in abundance and really focuses the viewers' attention to the circles rather than the characters. Anyway, it's a solid wall and I'm really loving it! ^^

*o* So beautiful...
It just has such a nice feeling. x3

You copied the technique of the original background perfectly... you can't even tell where the original scan begins. x.x
So much work was obviously put into this.

And Howl's Moving Castle ALWAYS needs more wallies. *nodnod*

Haha! That's my one of my favourite art from Azumi Tohru! XD I have toyed with the idea of making a wall out of this scan as well, though it never did materialize in the end. I'm glad you decided to keep the original style, and well done on the extension. It looks completely natural. And the colors make me happy. ^_^

Sorry about giving you the run-around with the borders and all =P Me and asa imagined something different when we were talking about it, and you went ahead and made something else that was really different. Shows you how different we think, even though we're all thinking about the same thing xD

Anyways, the scan extension is perfect, and the colors are really nice in this wall. I'm really impressed by your work here :) +fav
