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.
"I like the wall very much, but something about it felt awkward. So I stared at it for a while, and I knew it was something about the phone booth, but I wasn't sure what. After some more staring, I realized, it looks like you used vanishing points to figure out where a lot of the lines go, like the white railing and some, but not all of the lines on the phone booth. The lines that you should have used the vanishing point for, but didn't, are both the sides of the phone booth that don't go perfectly straight like this -. My guess is, because of that, the lines for the panes on the back side of the phone both are probably wrong, and its because the other lines don't go to the vanishing point that the panes there look so much bigger than the front ones. I think what you did is, instead of having all the horizontal lines that should go to the vanishing point go to the vanishing point, the most of the lines in the panes of those two sides were made to be parallel to the very top line of the window pane, or, some of them go to a different vanishing point, but there should only be one.
If you didn't use vanishing points, but just traced the screencap... well, if you wanted to fix the phone booth thats how ^^;;" View

"Awesome and cute idea, poorly executed. I normally really like your walls... but in this case, I think this would be a LOT better vectored. It sort of seems like the cut and paste effect is deliberate... but its not obvious enough for that to be pulled off well. " View

"Its a really awesome wall... with great color contrast. My only problem with it are Yukari's lips; although the rough vector look was clearly what you were going for, stuff like the shape of the face were done pretty cleanly. I don't know how the original scan was, but here it looks like the lips aren't part of the clean look; which I find a bit odd. " View

"I've never seen Argento Soma but I found this wall really gravitating. Upon full view I was surprised at how heavy the effects are... normally I don't like things that look like they've been run through twenty filters but this is really nice. The type too. Makes me want to watch Argento Soma. " View

"I love the wall background... but the vector really sticks out and seems out of place, because the style is so different. Personally I think I'd rather see the outlines of the characters... oh well. I wanted to wall this scene too.. looks like someone beat me to it..." View

"The background is done pretty well; when I first saw this I hadn't seen the original scan yet so I would have thought the entire background was your doing. Unfortunately its a face-on perspective... which makes one think its fake. But thats not your fault... since the original was like that. Cute wall. " View

"I doubt very much that you made this wall.
First of all, you put it in the wrong category.
Second of all, no one who knows how to make decent walls (for this is a decent wall) would put 'by Lucrezia Valentine' in that location, at that size, and as a pixel font. Especially if they knew how to use vectori fonts, like the text in the middle.
People put credits at the bottom because on Windows, which most people use, the start bar covers it. Thats common sense. Putting your name on it and fiddling with the colors doesn't make a wall yours. " View

"I like it, except its distracting that Asuka is there since she should be in unit 02. The way you did unit 02 by the way, the color scheme and all is really nice.
Is there anyone else you can stick there, that would make more sense?" View

"Great vector wall. I find that most people overuse vectors and end up making it tacky, but this keeps the design simple like they were meant to be. I love the touch of the "cat-bus stop", even though the red contrasts oddly with the overall green theme. " View

"I like it a lot, except. She's not from Card Captor Sakura. She's definetly drawn by CLAMP though. Judging from her chest size, she's probably from a one-shot.
I'm ok with the letters, the lines around 'Candy' annoy me a bit though. " View

"Beautiful wall, and excellent use of CLAMP's Rayearth artwork. I like how you've added Emeraulde (sp?) into Hikaru's sword, making what otherwise would have been a boring left side of the wall interesting. I don't usually like the painted-filtery effect in the background, but it was put to great use here. The addition of the tower is a bit sudden, but it doesn't strike me as odd enough to take out. Great job. " View
