Woo, I actually remembered to pick a group for this to go in. BoB loves you. And so does Sexual Harassment Panda!
That guy - (o-o)^ is hot, mk.
I started this almost 4 weeks ago, when I saw the image in the recent scan submissions on Minitokyo, and I was like "*O* OMG, this is gold." .. For a face shot. >>;
But it didn't take 4 weeks, I'm just REALLY slow. It was like a max of 8-10 hours, I don't know, I don't set up a timer and time myself when I wall.. like some people seem to do.. >>;
Ok, now obviously, I gave him color! omgwtf! 8D He looks good when he's not being blue. *slaps her knee* Get it? Hur hur, I made a joke. I cleaned him in CS3, I used the color replacement tool to get an idea of what colors I wanted where and stuff, then moved it over to Painter X and cleaned it and smoothed it a little more by painting. (duh) I put some more detail in his eye, because the best part of anime is the eyes. x3 Eyes are so pretty!
I extended his hair to one side, and flipped the image, because I personally put my icons on the left side of my desktop, and I was planning on using this as my wallpaper. (Wtf, who uses their own made walls as their wallpaper?)
Painted the branch, omg, I know it sucks so bad. I Made it blurry because it's in the foreground. I blurred a couple sakura petals for that reason to, but with motion blur, like they're falling. And to go with the sakura flower by his mouth I painted in a few little petals around his outfit and one that seems to be floating off his head. Lastly, I painted a sky.
It's so generic, but it's pretty. =)

And here's a comparison between the scan and my recolor, because I just wanted to make one. XD

And pretty much everyone else on MSN who actually likes talking to me. Man you guys are weird. And you better like this wall or I will sick Sexual Harassment Panda on your arses. >_>
Comments, critique, and favs appreciated as always, and Enjoy. < 3
Oh yeah, I forgot to say: YAY MY FIRST WALL FOR THE YEAR 2009! =)
Edit: Ok, screw that branch, guys. It's terrible, so it has to go. X_X I need to work on branches. Uploaded version with out branch and here's the branchy version if you wanna see it and how terrible it is, lol.

Edit2: Hi, lol. I got some good suggestions in my comments, so I acted on them and tried to fix up the wallpaper a little more. It would be safe to say that you should expect more revisions.. but I dunno. Just trying to make this wall look the best that it can. Thanks everyone for your critique and stuffs~ Hope this looks a bit better~
