As an animation, Bakemonogatari has a simple, clean art style. But the guest illustrations for the series are anything but simple! So, it's great to see that °Tens took on a more complex illustration and made it his own with vector gradients so fine at points it more resembles painting that vectoring. Do have a look at this beautiful wallpaper!
I know! I saw you on there right now! . Thank you so much about the comment for my "Anti-Social" poem. I think, that poem is going to be my personal favorites. *Yawns suddenly*...OH,WAOH!..It's REALLY late for me. Good night, Kaizor88.
*Gasps* Gomenasai, gomenasai, gomenasai, gomenasai..! (Cerberus in "Guilt Complex Mode" . ...Errr~..hi guys, sorry about that, Cerberus is going to sleep with guilt resting on shoulders. Poor thing. Het there, Lekwid, how are you donig?
You have just pasted the characters on another scan. I think the new AP policy forbids this." View

"That really is a sad story/song behind that picture. The wallpaper is really betautiful and I like the way you transferred the story into just one picture although it is quite complex. I also like those wonderful textures." View

"This is really interesting. I like the concept and the scan (because it somehow doesn't look like Eva). The colours and textures are really good but there is a tiny composition problem: Everything concentrates on the right side. Perhaps there would be more balance if you moved the wires a bit to the left. Other than that it is really good." View

"Nice concept for this beautiful scan. The gorey atmosphere fits in quite well but I think the blood effects on Dominique are a bit too much considering the over-all look. I mean, to slightly improve the composition you could have created more blank space. The harmony of the image would be nicer." View

"Actually it is a nice wallpaper but I am not that content with the execution. First, I don't know what that shadow on Kino's face shall be. The light comes from the fireworks but the shadow is casted from the opposite direction? Second, the character's quality is a bit blurry. Anyway, the glass is quite nice." View

"I agree with yng. Somehow this seems more like an encouragement for child abuse. I think it's because of the suggesting expression of the girl. If you wanted to make something about stopping child abuse you should have chosen a different scan." View

I already gave you some feedback on it via ICQ so you already know what my opinion about this wallpaper is. It is quite good and even better considering it's your first one. " View

"I always hear people say the sentence "simple but nice" to almost every simplicity wallpaper.
But I think it is the first time I love simplicity as it was done here and it is almost the first time that sentence has a right to be said. The shapes around the character make a good composition and the colours are nicely chosen, too.
So, nice and simple - but simple in a meaning of "precisely designed concept"." View

"What a nice wallpaper. I like that "stop" concept and the deformed street looks nice. There is just a composition problem with a lot of space on the right and too much on the left. But I love it anyway.
