お誕生日おめでとうございます!!! Happy Birthday Honey, I wish you all the luck and the love in your life!!!! I love ya! *hugs* ♥♥♥

FULL VIEW PLEASE!!
I really enjoyed making this wallpaper, specially when it's the first time I use Photoshop to create vectors and not Inkscape (sorry Inkscape, but I found that Photoshop is really much better than you ^^"), also I enjoyed it because of the stuff I added to the original scan and that was really funny!

Like you see, it's Mio Akiyama from K-ON!, the scan I chose is a Douijn from Sonsei Ryuunosuke, I created the vector then I started to add details, I added the Saxophone, the speakers and some cables, also the sheet under the girl and I completed the red sofa... www.animepaper.net/gallery/sca…

I used this image www.musicalinstrumenthaven.com… to create the outlines of the sax, vectoring it was easy, but making the colors and the shades was really difficult, I had to try many ways to color it before finishing it... The speakers were easy to do, I made them my own... like always here is the "famous" animated progression, where you can see more into the walling process: img261.imageshack.us/img261/51…

Some technical Details:


- Exits in 3 ratios, I recommend the 16:10
- I used 961 layer in order to finish the wallpaper.
- I used only vectors, no paintings, no patterns and no brushes...
- Thanks for Nona and Moutonzare for their wise tips ^^

I think that's all for this time, Julie, I hope you'll like my modest gift And I hope that you Paper People will like it too ^^ See ya next time ^^
