So uh... I don't really know what to say for this wallpaper.
I started the vector of Kan'u around the time the first episode of Dragon Destiny aired. I believe it to be around the end of February of 2007. So based on that information this wall was approximately 10 months in the making.
Vector is of a bunch of screencaps of the ending of the series, note: this is before the scans came out.
Initial idea was something like her underwater with bubbles and ribbons and stuff on top / next to her. Think wavy. Well after a while I found out that the initial idea was too complicated to go through with. IE: w00tazn is a lazy mofo. So I went with something simpler aka ripping off cola cola.
The vector and the base of the wall were done in march after that it's basically hiatus and me showing people the WIP saying how lazy/wallers blocked I was. So today I'm inspired to finally finish this crappy wall after watching the documentary "Helvetica". Essentially I redid a bunch of crap and then ended up going with this Magazine Advert theme, then I found some effect that made it look rusted/old and went with the grunge theme after that. Kinda reminds me of Need For Speed: Pro Street.
Oh well enough story, heres some stats:
74 layer Adobe Illustrator file
22 layer Adobe Photoshop file
7,304 hours of work
Thanks to peoples: brom, cy, lima, tama, gid, raven, bern, and a bunch more peeps.
