Wow. Not too shabby for a first vector! It's way better than my first lol!! Really good. You did great with the shading and the outlines. Vectors always take a long time...especially if you're still starting out. You mentioned the vector layers...I don't remember, but did I tell you how to combine them so you don't end up with 5 billion layers? Lol. I hope I did! If not, just let me know, and I'll tell you. :) Cause for my first several vectors...I didn't know how, so I couldn't count how many I had haha. XD
So yeah, good job again! I think the only thing that bothers me is the shading (err dirt?) on Simon's face [how did you do it?]. Do you have a tablet? If not, you could also try with the mouse and just use a small brush and make sketchy lines.
This is a very well done wallpaper~ The images are combined really well and the improvement to the original scan is great. This is the kind of wallpaper that I like to favorite. Something hard-worked and high-quality. Some of the edges in the vector are a little rough and I think the text would be better above your overlaying texture, but those are just nit-picky things~ ;D I'm glad I decided to sub you back, this is excellent and now I can't wait to see what you do next~<3

Yummy, I like dis.
Seriously, you did an awesome job on this! Great job at vectoring for the first time(?)! I also love how you masterfully combined the images together. It looks really well made.

Whoops, sorry for the late response! Yeah, you included combining vector layers in the tutorial, so no worries!
Nope, no tablet for me. I think I used the brush tool, but the size of the brush was still too thick, I guess. In any case, thanks for the advice!
