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!

"Hmm.. I never really thought about them being siblings... but I guess that could be possible too although I originally intended them to be a couple. The girl seems a little young though D: And yeah, I agree, the title does sound much nicer in Chinese. Thanks for looking and commenting like.. twice lol XDDashi - hahaha thanks :)
Tidez - don't you wish ap built in +fav buttons into the forums... lol... I wanted to fav some stuff here too but no +fav buttons :/ Thanks for commenting though :)
Motogp - Thanks for the comment, glad you like it :]
Kawaiiyuki - I used a program called openCanvas to draw and color.. thanks for the comment!"

"did it while listening to a song called 可不可以不勇敢... I don't like the colors that much and I've gotten too lazy to line over my messy sketches so you end up with an overfiltered bright and blinding picture :D
but it's been a while so I figured might as well post it.. I should be sleeping though"

Art isn't cute

"Maybe famous art isn't cutemaybe reknowned artists don't draw cute things
maybe your teacher needs to broaden her horizons
just because people may think a picture, or an artistic piece is cute, doesn't always mean it isn't art"

"Omgggg luna! how can you call yourself a failure?! Your drawings are all gorgeous!! You're so good at drawing front-facing faces... they're all so.. perfectly symmetrical! I wish I could make them as nicely as you do. And plus I absolutely adore the way you do eyes and lips, they just make all the faces you draw sooo pretty! D: Also, you're very good at drawing guys.. I don't understand what you mean when you say "after multiple failures of drawing boys" -_-My favorite has got to be the last picture... I love the color tones and her face and expression are just stunning

The Painter

"Mm... I really like the idea of the paint pouring onto her dress and making a picture.. very original :DI'm not really sure about the words though... they say "ai4 ping2 he2 xing4" in chinese, but I don't think it's an actual sensible phrase .. although it may be in japanese, I dunno.
luna: the last word is the word that appears in "xing4 fu2" and means good fortune/joy or something like that but.. hmm ... ai = love, ping = peace, he = gentle/harmonious though it usually comes before ping like you said.. I'm guessing it's just a listing of words dealing with peace, harmony, love, and joy etc.
anyway, nice work with the textures and colors, and whole piece overall :)"

Breathe

"Hahah.. the act of breathing.. so scientific aren't we X] Actually when I started it, this was just a random scrap that I never intended to finish, and thought would end up piled on my hd somewhere like 99% of my drawings. Soo.. the title was pretty random because I was listening to the song Far Away by Nickelback at the time and I caught the line "stop breathing if I don't see you anymore", so I just stole the word "breathe" from there because it sounded fitting and I couldn't stop thinking of it. But in a way, titling it "Breathe"... often when someone draws specific attention to that word, I think of someone taking deep breaths, with their eyes closed and letting their mind wander to someplace far off, maybe to some paradise we could never see on Earth.
I'm not sure if any of you got this, but behind her.. the white area is upside-down clouds.. so if you look at the picture upside-down, they should look like regular cumulus clouds. It's kind of like.. how do I explain.. she's wading in warm water, closing her eyes, taking a deep breath, and all of a sudden she's dreaming of wandering through the heavens, hence the clouds... but they're upside down because I wanted to make it seem like they could also have been a reflection on the water.. so it's like.. almost coinciding realities I guess. I didn't want to title it something like "dream" because I feel the word is overused, and if I did use it, it would have to be for something of substantially better quality than something I made on a whim. Then again, it's not something that I gave THAT much thought to.. so.. yeah.
And uh.. I don't think I intend to enter any competitions soon.. I had planned to enter some random online ones on dA before but nothing ever came out of it because I just got lazy in the end. The only one I've ever finished was the W.A.R. competition at minitokyo because I told them I was committed to it so I would have felt bad if I let them down by not actually doing anything :X
Anyway, thanks so much for your comment and curiosity.. it was a really interesting question to answer :) though I probably bored you out of your mind with my response :D"

"No, you're just stupid.
Actually, they did place a lockdown after the guy shot his roommate I believe, but they failed to alert the whole school. The next morning they lifted the lockdown. Anyway... what vtech admin did was just dumb. Had the school been more cautious with the way they handled things, I'm sure they could have saved many lives."

"Thanks for the comments everyone.. I really appreciate the comments :)Lol luna.. I didn't tell you because I figured you'd browse through the artists' alley anyway XD Glad you think it's pretty though :D Personally.. I want to kill her hair but meh.. to each their own XD
And machdude, I appreciate the fact that you enjoy this piece, but like luna said, no need to put others down for it and plus, I think there are a LOT of other artists here on AP who could do a much better job than this, since I'm really not that good. But thanks, I'm glad you liked it enough to comment :)
goddamnit.. I hate these smileys <__<"

Opinions needed!

"K. um. first of all. PLEASE SPELL CORRECTLY.I don't care what you do with the rest of it since I don't have any experience in this area but it's "artists" not "artist's" and it's "startling" not "startaling".
And Photoshop tutorials that will validate your existence?? What am I supposed to be getting out of this?
I think the top is actually alright.. but the rest is kind of cluttered.. plus I'm also not sure I'd want to get any nearer to a magazine that just shows the inside of a computer. It's certainly not too attractive for me. This probably isn't helping you out much.. sorry about that >__<
I'm probably just a bit too tired to think clearly at the moment >__<"
