Trick or Treat by °chanelqueen17 1 month 1 week ago

^nat
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!

"The 3D model doesn't have the resolution to pull off the wall. Like the concept and the layout, but you'll have to vector the model to make it look right (contrast the crispness of the logo).

Don't see an easy fix for this one. Sorry."

"A bit too muddied to use right now - and the eyes seem like they've been taken One Effect Too Far.

If you want to stick with the rough-looking image, don't mix too many other effects in.

"I like it. The mouth on the left-hand girl is distracting, however - maybe a lighter line to complete the curve? The eyes could use a little more attention (highlights should reflect same light source on both girls, although their eyes are at different angles).

However, these are minor issues. Well done overall - a lot of work is evident."

"Nice boat.

Revy seems stretched out of proportion, as well as lost in the background. Some kind of highlight of her silhouette would help. Also, the background is darker at the bottom than the top - lightening the bottom to match the top might cure some of the "overly dark" issues without having to modify the wall much.

Good luck!"

"Love the picture, but the background doesn't work well with the very clean character art. Maybe some simple gradients and get rid of the heavy lines and raster-looking texture?"

"Like the concept, and the color selections are OK.

Instead of just a gradient, consider adding motion in the background to tie the blowing flowers and wall together. If you make the motion bands/streaks in lighter and darker tones of the background color it will keep the noise and clutter down.

The text is pretty self-evident. If you're just stating the obvious, consider leaving it out.

"Outstanding wall. The vector is beautiful and the background works very well.

Great job!"

"Very attractive. The colors complement well. Suggest you move the text box from her shoulder to the lower-right corner and lighten the right-hand water for more contrast."

"Elric's arm overwhelms the wall. As mentioned above, reduce the size of Elric and his arm will still be prominent, without forcing the viewer's perspective to lock on to the arm. As it is, it's an automail advertisement and too pushy to be attractive."

"Same comment: don't understand the monochrome motif. What are you trying to say? Maybe take that one element you are trying to communicate and put it in color (muted, so it doesn't overwhelm the rest of the wall).

Good show to wall, and I like the design and character selection/placement."

"Try getting rid of the Eureka Seven text that's hogging so much space and add something to enhance the background. The character's competing with the text."

"Kind of mixed feelings about this one. Plus: the character and the pink/white background. Minus: the purse doesn't fit either the character, the action, or the style; whatever the text is behind her is wasted; the strawberry and ice cream cone motif is too much, too close to the character."

"The typeface is way too plain - get something that comes closer to ... oh, maybe, the Final Fantasy logo typeface? You can drop a scan (or vectored scan) in easily.

You can clean the scan or muddy the sky a bit. Might try a few filters on the sky before embarking on a vectoring project..."

"Actually, the added text detracts in my opinion. It makes it sound like a cheesy promo instead of a crafted wall.

The whole thing is very left-dominant/unbalanced; move the character to the 1/3 point and let the blood splatters carry some of the empty right field. OR maybe have one of the other characters like the maid (^^) at the far right and a bit further in the background.

I assume that the "Murder Princess" logo is from the scan. If it's not, get it off of her!

"Hey, you're doing well. All of the advice about where to place shadows and tones is great, but you've made something new - something that wasn't just a paste job or a doodle on an existing scan. Don't get discouraged and don't kill yourself making sure the dandruff is appropriately shaded...you're supposed to enjoy making the wall. Keep working as long as the work is satisfying, then stop.

I like the idea, and enjoy the spareness of the layout. You've gotten enough detailed advice to not need any more from me.

Now if you can just work the "Staring Inferno" in there somewhere..."

"She's a favorite of mine as well. Really like the emphasis the tattoos and gloves bring. She just needs something for her lower half: outlining the boots might give some definition without too much detail and detracting from the clean overall image.

The background - it's very clean. Maybe a bit too simple at the edges. What about a lighter concave mirroring the upper one? Would tend to place her somewhere in space, instead of floating without perspective.

Overall, a very cool wall and one I'm looking forward to seeing on the front page!"

"Like the coloring of Fuu quite a bit. Good clipping, like her position, want to see something...more in the background. It's busy right behind her, and empty elsewhere. Is there something you're trying to convey (other than "Fuu rocks!"), perhaps?"
