"By far the most slickly-designed FFVII wallpaper I've seen O_o
the idea is very creative and vintage indeed. The colors work, and how the heck did you managed to put such a fitting diagonal text in there?!?
Anyways... idea & execution gives you two thumbs up from me... but, the graininess (or is it an intentional texture?) strikes my visual a lot, I don't think I'd use this as my desktop. But I really adore the design and uniqueness.
Fav'ed..."

Neu-Series 2 Saber Minimal(istic) Design Black

2 years 7 months ago

"Black and blue always work for me. They look slick and elegant. Sometimes, combined with such brushing skill, it looks fantastically futuristic.
The scan is nice and matching well. Saber. ^_^
But somehow, the ovrall 'balance' in this wallpaper is a bit odd for me... dunno. The rest is pretty cool.
Anyways... this is one of the better FSN techno-abstract walls I've seen yet. Nice work! ;)"

"Impressive. But lol, since it's you, then no wonders that the quality is top notch and flawless.
A week to do the vector, wow.
Though I'm not a fan of SM, but I do adore this beautiful wallpaper. And not to forget, the effort behind the making. That's some serious job you've done, and it's done well. Congrats. :D"

"It's great. Totally stunning abstract-techno background with eye-catching colors. Wow.
The scan is also overlayed with some spiffy shapes and textures. Overall, it's your best work in AP, no, one of your best work to date! Congratulations on making such a complicated, yet cool wallpaper! :)"

Neu-Series 1: Burning Thoughts

"The techno-shape-infested background is crazy. I believe that took some SERIOUS effort in the making, plus, you're very consistent of the unique style you have in the other wallpaper. Two thumbs up for the great bg making skill. (^_^)b
As for the scan, hmm... first of all, I disfavor ecchi walls a bit, but that doesn't matter as much. The scan is, well, blurry. It looks very much in contrast with the sharp vector background. The scan looks like it's on a different layer at all. Dunno, maybe it'll look a lot better with a better quality scan. ^_^'
And you might want to reduce the size of your signature text a bit, a bit of it intersects the 'I know what you really want' design typo. Or you can nudge it a bit to the bottom."

Abstract Grunge-Roy Mustang

2 years 8 months ago

"Magnificent work! :D
Well, Roy is one of my favorite character in FMA, and this wall is totally reflecting his coolness in a stylish way. The monochromish layout gives the entire wall a sleek look, and matches well with the sharp vector, though I think you can add a bit more contrast to the abstract scheme (brighter whites in some areas).
The arrows might look a bit random, but it's okay, because the text is nicely placed in it.
Overall, this is one of your best FMA walls to date, IMO. I'll surely put this in my fav box.

Oh, one more thing, can I have a bigger res please? ^_^' LoL."

.::Relinquish your Dreams::.

"At first look, wow,.. it's stunning. Has nice colors, and some celestial background.
The details are abundant, from the cosmic clouds, to the sparkling stars. 'Beautiful' is the right word to describe it.
But on closer inspection, there are some things worth nitpicking ^_^'
-the extraction is off. There are jagged edges and missing outer lines, especially on her hair.
-the scan is a bit too blurry. But I don't know a good way to improve that other than reducing the blur effect.
-the planet is look-through. It's kinda weird. The stars behind it shouldn't be visible since the planet covers it.
-and I'm not sure about the abstract thing at the bottom part of the wall. The abstract stuff near the staff is fine, but I think as the distance grows, it should be less visible also to keep the wall being not too busy.

Well, apart from all the things I mentioned, it's a well thought concept, but could be much better executed. I really like the concept and the colors. :) I hope you have a time to improve the quality, if you do, then I'd certainly use this as my new desktop and add it to my favs right away."

Solid Hell (wolf's rain revamped!)

2 years 8 months ago

"Heh, at thumbnail view it doesn't attract me as much, but at full view, this wall kicks some serious ass. :D
The texturing is awesome. I don't know why you people are able to do grungey/textured wall so well. >_<
No comment on the vector, it's that beautifully detailed, and precise. Plus the hand.
The plants on the foreground really adds to the overall depth of the wall. Kiba really stands out strong.
And the colors are just terrific.
One thing that I'm not fond of is the text. LoL. Nothin' but the text. Not that I prefer it without one, but maybe a bit of typo won't hurt. Or some more artsy fonts. XD
Anyways... great job again from you, Kalico. Maybe not the best Wolf Rain wall that I've seen (cough* Cheza* cough), but it's definitely one of the better ones.
I'll put this in my favs."

Tsubasa Chronicle: Carried Away!

2 years 8 months ago

"The paneled look is okay, the texture usage is very good, but I sense a bit of disorderness in the black bars. dunno how to say it properly,... somehow the placement and angle of those are a bit off, maybe because the topmost bar is parallel to the middle (vertical) one. If it's in a different angle it would look better, IMHO.. All the rest are superb, tho, ...
Anyways... I wouldn't miss to add this to my favs. Fantastic job, as usual!"

"Amazing, stunning, and just as action-packed as the animated scene would be. Simply awesome. All the effects, color, and composition is in perfect match. Even the blur and motion effects are rendered beautifully. Simply one of the best E7 wall I've seen to date. I'll keep this in my favorites. I hope you make even more E7 walls :)"

Dies Irae

"Latin does sound cool and epic. :D
Everything in this wall is in great harmony. COlors, contrast, elements, and the amazing detailing texture of the sphere behind Yamato.
From the crackling clouds to the Roman literature. They're all blended together nicely.
There's one thing that's a bit not fitting to my tastes, though, the overlaying musical tune blocks in front of Yamato.
But then again, maybe that's just my personal preference anyway.
All in all, a magnificent job well done, Kalico.

Small-town Asuka

"The vector is well done and is really sharp.
The colors and lighting effects are relaxing, too.. I dig them so much
Somehow the style contrast between the vectored Asuka and the stock houses behind her irks me.
They don't quite match well although the stock is cartoonized.
The angle of the text is matching yet a bit weird... since the viewing angle should be parallel despite the fence's perspective.
Overall, a great job from you, but surely it can turn out much better. :)"

Prisoner of Solitude

"It's really cute yet intriguing. One thing that I would suggest is to increase the girl's color saturation a little bit, tone down the brightness and add a bit of contrast to add a more dramatic look to the whole wall.
The concept is top-notch. :)"

"The composition is nicely done and pleasant, the texturing is nice, the colors work, the cartoonized sakura works well as a picture hanging on the wall.
There are some things that bother me:
the girl doesn't have an outline! now that's a bit weird since every other part of her body has an outline.
and the cartoonized sakura petals outside of the window doesn't blend too well with the rest of the artwork style.
And the table lacks gradient, so it looks flat.
Overall, I must say, the concept is very nice and creative, I just hope that the execution can be better :)"

In Your Memory : A Familiar Scent

"The texturing is nice, the scan of Kino is ultra-cute, and the soft color is the thing that attracts my eyes at first glance. It's that old-school wallpaper that gives you a melancholy feeling throughout looking. And the one that doesn't bombard your eyes with colors and stuff (erm.. though I have to aggree... it would be better to have less fruits on it)
Definitely one of the most adorable Kino no tabi wallpaper I've ever seen. Great job, Sunira!"

"I can't doubt the HQ-ness of the entire wall. It's superb quality indeed.
It's also very suitable for a clean desktop wallpaper. Lots of space for icons on the left. And Yume sits cutely on the other side.
Simple, yet effective.
Nice colors, btw... , although it's not common to find sky in that colours any day in real life.. lol.
Thumbs up! "

"Intriguing. Indeed. Unique and artsy in some way, might be a bit too dark for some others.
I personally think it would be better to add Japanese traditional patterns or drawings on the background rather than a rising sun... :) Everything else about the girl looks fine and sharp. Fine job there."

But all in all, this is a nice presentation hard to miss for any Somedays Dreamers fan!"

This Summer, Pleinair will... KILL BILL

"Wowzers... I mean,... this one is hectic, in a good way, that is.
The blood splatters, the wall, the lantern, all fits in and gives that kill-bill look. Splendid.
But somehow Pleinair looks a bit darkened... dunno why... maybe because she's facing indoors, or.. is it just me?
And yes, the place she's on looks pretty high since the tree is wayy short... ^_^'

Overall, very creative work, and the attention to theme details are superb! :)"
