This is my entry for the derka competition.

The original scan, was a black and white manga scan, similar to this one found in the gallery:
http://www.animepaper.net/scans/Bleach/entry20155/
So, since it was black and white, i took it, and i fully revectored it in illustrator. i had to create from my head all the shadows and many of the folds in his cloth (especially inn the black area). also, for compositional purposes, i had to finish the cloth that is cut off in the original.
so after a lot of time reCGing ths whole scan, there was much stock manipulation, and much mroe lighting effects added, and trees made from scratch and texturing and all that good stuff, until finally, i came up with what you see here.
Good luck to my opponent, and his awesome wall, and good luck to everyone else in the competition :3
For more resolutions, check pixelated graffiti this saturday, assuming finals aren't sucking the life out of me.
