Real people in anime

"There are actually quite a few anime and manga's which have been made into Drama's (really people act it out) Take GTO (Great Teacher Onizuka) for instance, that's one and it's pretty good. But it isn't as funny as the manga and anime. Sorry, but I don't have a link to a...torrent? Don't know what you want a link for XD

But if you want to check out some information on GTO try here But I don't think that site tells you about Drama's. But it has information on anime and manga :) Enjoy~! "

Chaotic Chaos

"Definetly like the idea of this wallpaper! :3 Very chaotic ;P But everything has been placed well :3 But I agree with Gloo that you need to bring out some of the lines :) I really think that the idea of bringing out her lips is good, because I find when drawing a model, drawing their facial expression is something quite difficult ;P Whereas lips, it's pretty easy xD Good luck! ^______^b"

Full Moon Wo Sagashite Wallpaper

2 years 10 months ago

"You should get rid of the Drop Shadow on the text, it doesn't look good. The extraction is pretty neat ;D And definetly the cleaning! And I like how you've used a pattern on the scan. But I agree with everyone else that the scan is a little too bright for the eyes...and your wallpaper ^^"

I suggest changing the blend mode of the scan to Darken or Multiply, Color Burn may work too. Try playing about with the blending modes and duplicate layers (of the scan) and change the blend mode to all sorts. E.g. Layer 1 = Color Burn. Layer 2 = Soft Light. Something like that :) Hope you find the best result ;)"

How about now? I might have to start a new topic because I've been using this one for a while.

No need to start a new thread ^^" The admins would just think you're double threading...and that won't be good.

The wallpaper has definetly improved from the first version :) Not sure if this will help, but I think you should try following this Tutorial. It improves the quality of your scan :) I recommend Overlay, or Soft-light :) Personally think the extraction isn't bad, but it needs some adjustments and it'll look better! :3 If you would like to re-extract the scan, try following this Tutorial ^^ Good luck! :D"

Disgaea wallpaper - suggestions?

2 years 11 months ago

"Hmmm, agreed :) But adding too many planets could make the wallpaper too crowded, or too over-done. So think carefully where you're going to put things :) And secondly I think you should look for some nicer brushes than the default brushes on Photoshop xP Try looking about on Deviantart for some really nice brushes :) In this case, I think you're looking for stars? ^^

Don't forget to add your signature to the bottom of the wallpaper :) And another thing is try adding more contrast to the characters, try out this Cleaning Tutorial, it improves the quality of your scan, and makes it look prettier ;) Not bad so far! Keep it up! ^____^"

"The wallpaper doesn't look bad :) It's a good idea, but I just can't help feel that something is missing in this wallpaper >__< But what!? Hmmm...well keep up the cleaning :) The scans need some cleaning up here and there. ;) Personally think you could try adding more larger stars in the background...it may look better. Try it out and see what happens :)"

FLCL Wallpaper

"Excuse me but... aolin1317 what on earth are you saying...I understand it sort of but this has nothing to do with monwren5's wallpaper, we would appreciate it if you would STOP spamming the Forums!

Onto monwren5's wallpaper :) Alright, the vector isn't too bad. But it still needs more work done to it. You see the hair of the character? You need to add more shadow onto it, look back at the original screenshot or scan you vectored and look at the shadows of the hair and add them onto your vector :) You need to improve the eye! Don't convert to using your mouse! Keep using the pen tool to create the eye. That way the vector will look complete. :)

Lastly, add something more to the background. Just adding a simple filter and words won't get your wallpaper accepted into AP. Sorry to say. Keep up the hard work :)"

hhhmm..there are a lot character there..I htink you should only shoose a little..your making your wall too busy with those character..good luckk

Rukawa11 is right, the wallpaper doesn't blend at all, you should concentrate on one scan and work from that. You're a beginner aren't you? So let's begin with a simple way shall we :) We're allowed to use PNGs (already extracted) on wallpapers, so try looking for a PNG scan here.

Once you've found one you like, open up Photoshop (or whatever your program is) and place the PNG onto a new canvas :) If you already have a wallpaper planned out, great! Begin your wallpaper :) If you don't, come back to Session Zero and we'll see if we can help you ^^"

my memories off wallpaper!

2 years 11 months ago

"I think "the things in the corners" are the little dots on the bottom of the wallpaper, on the left and right corners there are some sort of dotty brush thingy there :P I think that's what their trying to refer to. I personally don't think the border looks bad, it's pretty nice. But the thing which irritates me :P Is that line thingy on the left side of the wallpaper, it just...bothers me, because it doesn't go well with the wallpaper :P Don't forget your sig :)"

Mezzo Wall

"The school bag or bag sort of thing which is just lying there...it seems a little random. Plus the fact that there's like machine stuff used in the wallpaper so the school bag doesn't look too good...may want to get rid of that :P I think the background needs more work, because I don't think the letters effect goes well with this scan. I think more of a cloudy sky goes well with this sort ;P

You can find some stock photos or some brushes of clouds, try Deviantart for some, great place ;) And the Japanese writing on top of the machinery stuff, doesn't look too good either, may want to get rid of that. Good luck! :)"

Fighting Dreamers ~ Naruto

"You haven't cleaned your scan very well I don't think...that's how the scan came like? Try using filters and changing the blending mode to increase the quality :) And you haven't got a signature on your wallpaper! You must remember to put that at the bottom of your wallpaper, or it'll be rejected straight away.

You may need to add more to the background, maybe some more brushes? And about the font, try finding a different font, one which will go really well with the wallpaper and scan so it doesn't clash. Currently it sort of clashes with one another so yeah :P So finding a different font, try DaFont it has quite some cool ones ;)"

Jigohu shoujo wallpaper

2 years 11 months ago

"You have no signature on your wallpaper, remember to put one there of it'll be rejected straight away. And what is the resolution for this wallpaper? The wallpaper looks far too small...the minimum resolution you can use is 1024*768 and maximum is 1600*1200

Now about the wallpaper itself, the whole wallpaper itself is a little rather too plain and simple :P So think over the layout of the wallpaper and such, so then it'll look better :) And since you've used a vector, think carefully about the background, because usually, vectors and abstract backgrounds don't go well. Hope that helped :)"

Rejected -_- Advice

3 years 1 month ago

"You need to improve your extraction work on Ichigo, you can see far too many white pixels. I'll give you some help ;) Click here and follow the link to a Extraction Tutorial :) You'll find it helps you alot :)

And maybe you could improve the quality of the scan a little but following this link to a Cleaning Tutorial :) Hope that helps you now :D Oh and one more thing :P The quality of your brush work is poor, the brushes are all pixely and it doesn't look nice, that's probably one of the major reasons why it got rejected. Try out Deviantart for some Brushes :) Good luck!"

Advent Children wallpaper

3 years 1 month ago

"The concept of the wallpaper isn't bad ;) I can see the hard work you've put into developing this wallpaper ^^ It's greatly improved. I think that the set of orange eyes need to be more smooth to go well with the smooth background, and since Cloud's eyes are blue, why not try making Seph's eyes blue too, just as an experiment ;P

But I suggest adding some Noise (median 3) and then change the blending of the layer, and don't forget to duplicate it before you add the median. I think it'll look cooler that way :) Hope I've helped :D"

Uhhh, need sum hizzelp on a bg for this vector.

3 years 2 months ago

"LOL you needed to be at the top so you type "HELP!" Amusing amusing ;P Well I'm thinking you could find an image/screenshot or whatever or Sasuke and vector it but make sure that Sasuke is walking away, so like the image would be Sasuke walking away from Sakura towards the sunset, so add some sort of sun in there too :)"

Sasuke Wallpaper

3 years 2 months ago

"Ok...that was some confusion there :P Hopefully it's all fixed up now. Well I think that the wallpaper isn't too bad, the vectoring is really well done, though just repeating the vector and changing the angle and such isn't going to get the wallpaper accepted. Hmm I think you could add Orochimaru faded in the background OR instead of Orochimaru go for Itachi ;P Only a quick idea xD"

Need help

3 years 2 months ago

"The wallpaper isn't too bad, just one thing I have to point at is that...the use of black borders on wallpapers aren't too good...so I highly suggest you don't use the black border and just re-create the bits of the wallpaper which are missing.

Ok, down to the practical work, the extracting on the scan isn't too good, so needs improving; with the little help of this ;) Extracting Tutorial. Not only extracting but also cleaning :) So carefully follow both Tutorials. Hmmm the stock image most definetly blends well with the scan. The text needs to be changed..maybe a more swirly and you can place it somewhere near the scan too ^^ You can find lots of fonts here GOOD LUCK! ^_____^b"

re CG

"Hiya Rukawa11 ^_____^

Hmm well CGing is when you re-colouring in but digitally if you get what I mean, so like take Final Fantasy for example, Advent Children (the movie) was CGed. So basically like digitally colouring is CG if you want to call it like that ;) And if you've seen Superman Returns, the scene where the bullet hit's his eye, that's CGed ALOT ;) Hope you understand what I walk talking about lol ^^" "

Fate stay night wp

"Onigiri~! The wallpaper isn't too bad ^^ The drawing is pretty well done, though the curtains outlines are too jagged so you'll need to fix them up ;) I suggest you use The Pen Tool it creates straight lines AND gives a lovely finishing result ;) Not to forget you need to add your sig to the bottom of the wallpaper or it's 100% rejection :o

The extraction on the scan is a little off as well, you can just about see bits of white pixels near her hair, so here's a great Extraction Tutorial, it gives a great finishing result ;) And maybe adding some texture to the background? The wall in the wallpaper looks a little plain, or maybe adding some sort of pattern to make it less plain ;D Good luck~! ^^b"

New wallpaper...

3 years 3 months ago

"Not bad for a beginners wallpaper. But you'll need to do alot more than just filtering ;P I just really suggest you look through AnimePapers Wallpaper Gallery just to fill yourself in, with what standard you need to make your wallpaper ^^

OK! Let's get to work then ;D Well since Naruto is a screenshot, maybe you should vector him? Ask the Vectorness group for advice about vectoring. Then there's cleaning up stuff, so here's a cleaning Tutorial.

You should add more background to the wallpaper, and avoid using Filter > Render > Clouds, that sort of filter isn't good and get's you no where. So try finding better brushes so you avoid them yeah? You can find really good brushes at Deviantart just have a look around the Resources there ;D Good luck~! ^____^"
