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!
"Lol, the image looks a bit... bleached
Dunno if that's on purpose, if it is, it's funny. If it's not, it's ironic :P
Anyway, cleaning is nice and you did a nice job on the coloring.
"Wow, that's some proper drawing you did there. Very stylish, very classy. I love the colors too. The background is really empty, but that does leave you focussing on the beautiful characters, which is good.
The only thing I'll be bitching about is the fact that there's a slight color difference between the completely white background, and your original image (which isn't wallpaper-sized). Takes a high-contrast monitor to see it, but it's definitely there. Might want to use a soft eraser tool around the edges. If you don't know what I'm talking about, look at your monitor (assuming it's TFT/LCD) from a very high or low angle and you'll see it." View

"This wall doesn't deserve a negative comment, so I'll make it short.
I respect the amount of time and work that you 2 put into this piece, the birds and all the details sure make this wall very nice.
I can't help waiting for people to start shooting though (I might've watched too many John Woo movies) ^__^." View

"Not sure if Lily Allen and Tchaichovsky were ever mentioned in one sentence before, but anyways: simple, basic wall, with some very nice coloring work on the character. You should've linked the original Lily Allen cover, because that explains -and largely makes up for- the imo too basic style. Still, the Lily Allen cover is a bit more refined than this wallpaper (better background gradient, more depth in the big letter).
By the way, Tchaichovsky's Swan Lake is a very beautiful piece of music indeed. Never heard of Les Etoiles de Bolchoï though..." View

"Good to see a proper Black Lagoon wall again. I always say any Black Lagoon wall is a good wall, but this one really is. I love the background and the overall color. Very nice job on the smoke too.
Only the top of the hair seems a bit too 'burned' and too highly saturated.
Nice paintjob, although a bit blurry compared to the kickass bubbles and the eyes. I also agree with the people saying the logo wasn't necesarry. Still, high quality stuff and a nice birthday present ^^." View

Other than that, I think this wall is as good as it gets." View

"Beautiful painting! The only thing bothering me a bit is the placement of the text. The idea of putting it there isn't all that bad -especially because I can't think of a different spot to put it-, but because the text is flat, it doesn't match up with the perspective on that part of the wall.
"Fun concept, but maybe not really suitable for a wall, seeing the large empty space on the right. On the other hand, if people got lots of icons on their desk, that's the place to put it.
Anyway I think you did a nice job here, I really appreciate the original concept." View

"100% awesomeness!
Or actually 99% because that one letter at the bottom before the word 'game' is cut off causing jaggies. Should've just erased the left bit.
Other than that, it's a very clever wall. Simply stunning.
"Reminds me of some movie poster and also has the quality and perfect composition to be one. The lighting is simply stunning here and I like the color scheme a lot. My only critique is that there are some black outlines here and there that might be a bit too fat, but overall, this is a very classy wall.
Well, you know what I think about it already, it's a beautiful serene wall. I really like the soft colors and the clean vector. Nice job on the final touches regarding the butterflies.
"No boobs, no +fav :P
And the additional low-q picture doesn't count :P Especially not since SOA means STD in Dutch and I don't want to get any of those when fapping to it.
"Absolutely fantastic wall, if it weren't for the rails to be drawn in a very wrong perspective. The sleepers (as those things under the rails are called) should've been way more horizontal, or at least more horizontal the further the rails gets away. You have an excellent reference in the lines drawn on the platform, which are placed very well. It's a real shame, because again, the rest of the wall is superb." View

"I was afraid I had to type lots of critic about the perspective here, but since this is basically a scanfix, that isn't an issue since it's part of the original artist's view (which you always need to respect).
So what's left for me to say is that I like the scene, but there are still a few points worth improving. One is the outlines on the characters. Especially on the green-ish shirt, the grey outlines are downright ugly. Match outline colors with the colors they eh.. outline. Or go for black (although I hate that too).
Furthermore, see if you can slam a sort of concrete texture on the pool floor and sides. Especially because they have 'cheap looking' colors, you need a bit of detail and depth, otherwise they're just big junks of plain color, which feels unnatural and thus unpleasant. You might also want to try out some gradients or dodge/burning some areas to make it more lively.
Thirdly, downsize the contrast between the tiles and the space between the tiles. Remove the bevel effect there, because it doesn't match the vectorized look of the rest of the background.
And finally, fix the perspective on the bottom right corner." View

Simplicity suits Ponyo well, so this is a lovely relaxing wall. Fantastic scanfix and the added water is great. I'm not so happy about the logo, it'd prolly be better if you had smoothened and straightened the edges, like the water. Looks a bit low-quality now compared to the rest.

"Saw this one on 120War earlier today, was one of the better entries quality-wise. Great job for 2 hours of work!
And the Ecchi version is just wrong, man xD. Hilarious though, you should've submitted that one for the war ^__^ (now you don't stand a chance against Luna's creation, hah!).
"Ah, the standard "characters in a field of grass at night" wall. Good for starters and a nice way to get some practise in Photoshop.
Anyway, I have 4 tips for you:
1- The grass looks a bit flat and is waaay too big in the foreground. Please check this tutorial.
2- Give more space to the characters! Those are -or should be- the most important part of an anime wallpaper! Make them fill half the screen, so that they're also realistically bigger than the grass.
3- The trees in the background need more accentuation, by giving them some backlight (glowing edges, etc.)
4- There are stars IN FRONT OF THE MOON. That's kinda odd considering the stars are -apart from the sun- a gazillion times further away from us than the moon." View
