OMG the nut is back! Run for your lives! @.@
First of all, the puffy potatoes in the sky are clouds XD I know I still need to practice but I like the clouds in this wallpaper. I tried to keep the shading correct and shaded them with both blue and orange - different hues, different opacities and so on. There was a sun behind Luchia but she covered it up o_o I wanted to create a warm scenery, just listen to the song if you want to know what I mean (I love this song to bits!). I like how the grass came out too :3 The perspective: looking from below, to clear up the weird angle of the clouds and grass.
As for the scan, I originally wanted to vector a very blurry Kaleido Star screenshot of Sora dancing but I got discouraged after tracing a few lines =_= I wasn't in the mood for heavy reconstruction and detail guessing. Then I found this scan: Live Start! by moonelf313. The perspective was right so I gave up vectoring the KS screenshot and concentrated on the scan. Of course, I didn't want some cut off wallpaper (plus I wanted to focus on the background more) so I began reconstructing the parts which were covered/missing. After finishing the right part of the hair and her right leg, I discovered this scan. Haha. No matter though, I could care less. This is by far the strangest thing I've ever done, I usually vector something completely ._. However, this scan was of good quality so there was no point in vectoring it completely - I vectored only the missing/covered parts. Oh, I used this scan to reconstruct her right leg: Lucia 1 by Zaza4.

I guess that's all I have to say about this work. I enjoyed making this wallpaper even though that reconstruction wasn't that easy : Ack, I should be working on a wallpaper for a contest! @_@ Better run off then! Thank you in advance for any kind of support: viewing, commenting, faving and for the support on my previous wallpaper
