Mizu No Akashi (Clean Version)

Designer's Comments

Look carefully for specific instructions

Clean version? Meaning I took out all the text and some of the brushes to create a cleaner, better version.

It features Lacus laying in the grass, next to a pondish-lake-river thingy-? The water was very tricky to make, it was the hardest thing to do. I had to look at other pictures of ponds, etc. just to figure out how to construct it. I mean I am terrible at making nature abstract. I ended up making the water also seem like it was in the sky, by adding some visibility in the middle, which I think looks nice.

The grass looks pretty bad.. I know. ... well all I can say is it just wasn't working. The wallpaper took up 45 layers, mostly because I put the grass in many different layers becuase I kept resizing the brushes. I also added some little gold sparkly things.. I'm not sure why. I should have, in the end, just vectored the grass.

Don't even get me started on how badly I extraced Lacus. x3

I also put in some pretty little birdies! The doves are also there because doves are the representation of peace. Anyhow the moon didn't take very long, but I used a texture from Hyrbrid-Genesis and faded it into the moon. Also, thought it's hardly noticeble there is a small sun just right behind the moon, setting on it.

Theme wise: Clyne factions theme is, LIGHT & DARK.

With that I used the song Mizu No Akashi (actually the english dub Water Evidence) for theme. A line from the song was: lift your eyes and see a new day dawning. With that I made the scene in the wallpaper sunrise and sunset. You know when you look outside and the sky is mixed of a dark and light blue.

That is the transition between night and day: Twilight.

The only place where light & dark ever meet.

So that was my inspiration.

MIZU NO AKASHI: lift you eyes & see a new day dawning...

No stealing. Enjoy!
