IkkiTousen - Kan'u Unchou X Itsuki Akira

After sometime once again a 一騎当千 (IkkiTousen) wallpaper by me, but this time a little different from all of my previous wallpapers. Why? Because this time it feature also a real person!
This is a wallpaper with 関羽雲長 (Kan'u Unchou) from 一騎当千 Dragon Destiny and 五木あきら (Itsuki Akira) in cosplay of 関羽雲長. With this wallpaper I wanted to make a cross between anime and reality.

The reason I have made this wallpaper is this:
I think 五木あきらさん is the best 関羽雲長 cosplayer!!! To make a wallpaper with both of them is my way to show that she is really the best 関羽!
I very much hope you will like this wallpaper.

To render real person is almost the same as a illustrated, only the hairs are even more harder to render.
I was thinking long time over the background color and tried many different color variations, but I most liked this dark-to-red.

Lodoss-tou Senki - High Elf Deedlit

Wallpaper to one of the best fantasy ever made. And not only in anime, but in general! To ロードス島戦記 (Record of Lodoss War). Yes, I really like this anime, the characters and the story.
I have definitely decide to make a wallpaper to this series when I have saw the illustration of Deedlit made by 武内崇 (Takashi Takeuchi), which I have also used in this wallpaper.
From start I actually knew the final look of this wallpaper (this happens only few times), only I was not sure with the mountain and the river, but I think without them it looked little plain.
I want to make someday also wallpaper with Pirotess.

Uchuu Senkan Yamato 2199 - From the Ashes to the Stars

Here is my new wallpaper, the first one (and hope not the last) to the series 宇宙戦艦ヤマト2199 (Space Battleship Yamato 2199). I really liked this series and from the start I was thinking to make a wallpaper to it.
What I wanted to to make with this wallpaper was to make it like a 'promotional poster'. This is one of the few wallpapers by which I exactly knew the name, and the name have set the final look of it.
Most time have take me the render of the trio, Yuki, Susumu & Akira. The rest of it was pretty fast, only then I started to speculate a little with the Earth. But in the end, I ended by the first idea.

Code Geass - I will teach you everything

Here is my new wallpaper. It is to the series Code Geass R2, with Lelouch and my favorite character from this great series, Cornelia. From the first time I have saw this image I wanted to make a wallpaper based on it. And finally I have made it. It is a simple wallpaper, but that is what I wanted.
This a little rare type of wallpaper from me, because it also contain male character.

W-Tails Cat - Shirow Masamune

Finally I was able to make new wallpaper. Manny things to do now in work and only reason I was able to finish this one is that I was ill.
OK, so more to this work. Wallpaper based on art by my most favorite illustrator 士郎正宗 (Shirow Masamune), with Cyril Brooklyn & Iris Hallett from W-Tails Cat/PhantomCats artworks.
I tried to make this wallpaper in the style of Shirow Masamune, tried to make it little like a official wallpaper to W-Tails Cat. Pretty long time I have make the "code". It is still long away from original, but I tried my best on it.
Also I was not sure what exactly to do, I wanted to have there Cyril, Iris and the W-Tails Cat logo, but with the background I had hard time. I tried many things, but in the end I have ended by this steel like, simple background.

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas!
My New wallpaper is with Christmas thematic. This is my third wallpaper for Christmas*.
This time with original art by one of my most favorite illustrator, 白亜右月 (Ugetsu Hakua).

I wanted this wallpaper with simple look, but at the same time not too boring. I tried to make a good contrast between the Santa Girl an the background, so I decided for green background. On the sides I have make a freeze effect (I hope it looks like freeze :P).
I hope you will like it. This is probably my last wallpaper for the year 2013 (but I started to work on new one), so in the case I don't post nothing new I wish you Merry Christmas & Happy New Year.
