*passes out*
Ok, so maybe I'm being over dramatic but I spent about a week on this wallpaper. It doesn't look like it at first glance and even I can see that it's rather simple, but it took me so long because I spent hours on Mugen. The original picture that I used was very pixilated and blurred in some spots. So I spent a long time reconstructing him. Here's the original picture: http://www.animegalleries.net/img/144211
It kinda looks like I vectored him, but I didn't. I justed used a LOT of layers to color over his clothes and body, and I drew back in the lines. Probably the long way of doing this but I think it turned out pretty good. I even searched for the kanji characters for Mugen's name, which means "infinity." Since the characters were so small, I ended up drawing over them as well. Yup, that's my handwriting! I thought the infinity symbol in the background went along nicely with Mugen.
Anyway, this is for Erzengel Weiss, who requested a Samurai Champloo wallpaper. I hope you like it, Erzengel!
