Trick or Treat by °chanelqueen17 1 month 2 weeks 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!

*Reads on.* (Why do I feel funny all of a sudden?) I used to dislike pink, because it reminded me of my friend from a long time ago (I had a grudge).

I find it quite a nice color, because it used to irritate my girlfriend when I was going to buy pink shirts and because I look good in pink.

Authemis, I've been in a school, in a classroom, that has guys (and no girl student) for about 5 years. So, whatever it is, may not surprize me. TheReject, where were you for sometime?

Oh, is that so, Authemis. (TheReject is here. I guess I can't minick him anymore, noe that he's here. ..Nothing mean or anything.) Well, to me, I think that you are a nice kind hearted guy, Authemis. (Even though I don't know you very well)

Very few parts of the internal structure of a human being are pink.

Simple wall from a scan

"Oh dear, now the text is too dark. I think you should make it more noticable like before, not barely readable. Then I think this wall is perfect. :D Good job!"

"I think that you could use a different font for the bottom bit "cage without a key", size it down and make the spacing between the letters a bit bigger, and you'll get something like the font in Kyendo's Twilight, then I think it'll be perfect. "

Rukia- Finding Yourself

4 years 3 months ago

"You could still make the portrait version, and just extend the edges to make it the standard monitor resolutions for submission. I personally think that you should remove the blue rays and the grass, and place a sort of mirror in between the two Rukia's. Then the ghostly Rukia could be her image in the mirror. Maybe you could also vector in her left arm and hand with the fingers lightly touching the glass. That would look lovely, I think. "

Tsukiyomi Moon Phase at the cemetary

"I'm not really sure but at that small resolution, I can't really see the details.. I think the wall on the left looks more realistic than the wall on the right. Perhaps doing what you did to the left hand side to the right hand side would remedy this? However I think that the right wall at the moment looks rather 2-D-ish. I suggest adding some shadows to suggest depth. I also think that the left wall's top edge looks rather cut off. Perhaps you could lighten the top to suggest somewhat that light is shining on it?"

Simple

"Oh, this is really nice, highknees! I've been watching your progress since the inuyasha wallpaper, and you've really improved! The stark black and white look is fine, but after all the ipod parodys I've seen recently, I've grown weary of solid colours. What I suggest is an alternate colour scheme, maybe brown/sepia? The edges could also be feathered, and I think would look good with an outer glow sort of thing with a light grunge as fooblued suggested. May I also beseech you to make it in 1600X1200? It shouldn't be any trouble scaling up the vector. "

Oops

"Yep, in my opinion this wall is pretty much done, even their eye's match (that hollowed black look). I look forward to see it being submitted soon :D

p.s. I was debating whether to suggest adding shadows, but on second thought since it's cartoonish and not realistic I think it could do without. "

Simple wall from a scan

"Oh, looking good! Now all it needs is some text to complete it. I suggest something like overlay with some outer glow so it looks like the font in JTsang's wall reminisence would look nice. I think that the background looks fine to me, but if you want to touch it up I suggest you duplicate the background layer and apply a noise->median 4-6px and set blending mode multiply, 30-50% opacity and the original layer opacity 50-70%. You can play around with the settings. There are other cleaning tips in the thread http://www.animepaper.net/forum/posts.php?tid=5483"

Simple wall from a scan

"This is indeed a very nice scan which I would love to see turned into a wall. One on hand I would like to see the full scan without the peephole effect, as in she is on a bed in some ornate bedroom, but on the other hand I think the peephole idea is good too. As likagen suggested, I think you could place some brass ormentation to suggest that it is a keyhole (try looking up stocks on http://sxc.hu/). If the focus is on the girl, then you should apply a small gaussian blur to the surrounding keyhole."

Oops

"Oh, nice vector! I think the problem is the text. I suggest you put a thought balloon instead with a small cartoonish ed in one of those fuming poses he often adopts, since the oops is already indicated by the water droplet on windry's head I don't think you need to actually write the words oops.

If you want to keep the oops though, I suggest a comic book like font instead. I think www.blambot.com should have some nice appropriate comic-like fonts. "

No clue what to do next...

"I personally think you should vector the background and colour it so it has the same style as chi. Othewise, it looks too photorealistic. But I must say that the photo goes very well with chi, if you could just shift chi to the center of the wall it would look even better."

The Best Fonts?

4 years 3 months ago

"I seem to have an unhealthy collection of fonts. Among my favourites are
Killigraphy (beautiful script), LemonChicken (reminds me of restaurant menus), Papyrus (looks like a Lord of the Rings font), Blackadder (unique old style calligraphic script) and Caeldera (nice title font).

I actually have psd files that contain text with different fonts arranged according to type calligraphic, graffitti, .. in which when I want to add text, I just scroll along and select the font I want and copy and paste it into my wall, good when your collection of fonts is large and searching for the font you want is tedious.

Evolution

4 years 3 months ago

"

So to put it simply it is literally improbable and impossible that macro-evolution exists. To believe so would be to toss all scientific laws out the window. To think that the universe just went BOOM and appeared is ridicules! When a person builds a house he or she writes up plans the "blueprints" and then hires a team of people to follow those blueprints and "create" the home. So when you look at a building you cant say that it just happened by chance. No it had a "creator" behind it. Without the people that made it the building would not be there. So to think that with out a creator the universe somehow brought its self into existence from absolutely nothing is stupidity. There is a creator, there has to be a creator, and there is scientific evidence that there is a creator. End of story.


I absolutely agree with you. The universe obviously has a creator. Many believe it's God (I do). And it's extremely illogical how some people say the world came to exist out of nothing and how humans evolved from an animal (IE Monkey). Many of you guys made some interesting points about this topic, which really captivated my attention...


This is frankly fascinating, but science does have alternative theories on how the universe began. I remember reading one paper that proposed that the universe is a quantum tunnelling phenomena from nothing. (And this is a serious academic paper published in a respectable journal). The caveat is that as with all scientific theories, it cannot be absolutely proven. Science is based on doubt after all, and this is especially so for theories that have to be extrapolated back in time from current data.

Studio Gonzo

"I think their master stroke was Last Exile, and the rest of their productions are all of a high quality, but some of their productions suffer from inconsistent scriptwriting. I think peacemaker kurogane had a lot of potential, but was let down by a too-slow plot. Chrono crusade also started off slow but redeemed itself in the later part of the series. Despite these inadequacies, this studio still remains firmly entrenched in my to-watch list. "

Fruits Basket wallpaper: Moonlight Serenade

4 years 3 months ago

"First of all, I think you should use the rubber stamp tool to try to remove that edge of the butterfly on the collar of the guy. I think it's an artifact of the original scan? Also, the background behind the wooden sceen looks a bit pixelated, maybe you could smoothen it out. I think butterflies and circles that are scattered around could be improved by adding some colour gradient to them instead of plain white? I personally think that the font would look nicer semi-transparent instead of opaque and maybe with a colour gradient instead of plain black and white. Otherwise, this looks good! "

DeathNote Wallpaper

"Are those white triangles on the edges of the boxes intentional? If they aren't, I suggest you remove them. If you want to make all the squares have cut off edges then I also suggest you cut off all the edges, not only 3 of them as in the bottom left box. Also, the cloud like things in the box looks funny with the edges pronounced. I suggest you duplicate the layer and do a noise->median about 5-6px and or multiply it (maybe 50% opacity to the duplicated layer and 50% to the bottom layer) to make it more smooth. I think the feather next to the font doesn't look much like a feather, how about searching around for a better one? (Try asking inuchan143 where she got the feather in her latest wall from, it's a really nice feather.) Also, maybe you could change the blending mode/blending properties of the font and black lines to make it look like it's not just pasted on. (Try duplicating the layer and using a feathered mask with overlay or colour burn). I think the extraction on the right side of her clothes/shoulder could use some work, it looks a bit uneven/patchy at the moment.
Otherwise, I think this is a good attempt, the colours match very well! "

I Am Psychic

4 years 4 months ago

"Hmm... this is a very interesting topic, because my mother wanted me to research psychic abilities! I told her that my graduate supervisor would kick me out of his office if I suggested that. Anyway, there are institutes that do perform this kind of research, and they are affiliated to respectable universities. The Rhine Research Center and Institute for Parapsychology (Duke) and The Princeton Engineering Anomalies Research program at Princeton come to mind.

It is sadly true that most people who believe in this sort of thing are just looking for a way to boost their ego with some kind of special ability, and not a serious interest in the subject for its own sake. However, if you remove the irrelevant social factors, and just keep the unmodifed data, what we have is some interesting stuff which should be analyzed carefully. "
