Wallpapers by Shadowkin

Great work! I really like Caska especially.

Here's something that I quickly made and no it's not one of the three other walls I'm making. The other three walls that I'm making will be much better, witch involves scenic bg's and all the rest, something more effort full


Edit: Made some improvements here and there, just so you know

I quiver with anticipation...Maybe you'll have something for me to replace your Berserker Wallpaper with.

I confess I still have your wallpaper on my desktop, for weeks now. I can't wait for more

Here's my new wall
It's nothing amazing, but it's still ok I guess. I mainly wanted to display the emotion here with the dark empty wall and Casca sitting there looking all alone and stuff. You can find the original scan in volume 17 where Guts return to the Blacksmith. The wall was made from scratch and I kind of like the texture I made, anyway I'm also working on a Serpico wall with costom made wind spirits

Looks nice, Shadowkin. Its a solid composite of placing Casca in a different background.

Two things that stand out to me are that the hair don't really share the same shading (still left uncolored) and the line art seems a bit blurry (did you increase the size of the original?)

Nooo not the hair again, I'm not really good with the hair thing Should I make it more gray and darker? And yes, I did increased the size a little... Does the lines stand out that much?

Hair is typically shaded with the idea in mind that you're shading many individual strands. Use reference of dark hair in photos as a guide.

As for the line art I usually only blow up the original when its absolutely necessary, and even then I only blow it up a bit but then add a subtle sharpen filter to help reduce detail destruction. I do all of this before I start to color.

Shadow, if you want to cheat and just make the hair a LITTLE better, just paint over it with a black brush with opacity 50% or something. That would at least make it less blatantly uncolored.

Heres a cool tutorial for painting hair in Photoshop.

The part where the speckled brush is used is key.

[Shadow8]

Wow, I love your wallpaper and great job.

Freakin' excellent work, guy. I particularly LOVE the one with the Berserk Armor. Keep it up :)

 

[CnC]

Keep it up :)

Since his last entry was over a year ago that might be a while.

 

[slayer81]

darn you're right! I was just skimming through them and thought I'd give 'em kudos

I'm still making wallpapers; just a lapse in Berserk walls however, since I've waited a little (a year now I think) till a couple Berserk episodes piled up and then read them ;) Anyhow, now that I've caught up again (and found myself reading the whole Berserk manga again as a result ) I'm in the mood to begin making some Berserk walls again especially since I've learned a couple things in the mean time from my other walls.
