Description
I just reunited with my mentor after very long years and there I got the idea that I could redesign one of those old crappy wallpapers which I made back in the years when I started my walling career. It would be a good chance to show him how my skills improved in those 6 years.
Unfortunately the original scan is now lost with the shutdown of AnimePaper and I scrapped the original description without reading it. Guess why, heh?
I made the original release back in 2008 and wasn't bad for that time, but just as skills grows, grows also the dissatisfaction from your older submissions. So ladies and gentlemen, I present you the 2014 version of... oh my, even the title changed... so rather I make a list of changes.
General changes:
- Aspect has been changed from 4:3 to 16:10 widescreen.
- Resolution of the workfile has been changed from 2048x1536 to 4000x2500
- Characters are now completly revectored, extended and their outlining was changed.
- Gradients and effects are used now instead simple overlays.
- Title has been changed from "Princess School Class" to "Princess School Homeroom".
- Colors are now much more vibrant and more toned.
- The output file is now in 4K (3840x2400).
Character changes:
- To fit 16:10, Rabi en Rose, Rinna Charat and Mike Charat has been extended to full characters. Completly drawn from my imagination. Hope they don't look that bad.
- Aqua and Yurei have now detailed eyes just as the others, despite that not even the anime features it.
- Yurei now has light in her hair, which is neither present in the anime.
- Meek now has a visible school crest.
Background changes:
- The background now goes with the anime instead basing it on the original scan. Details bellow.
- The font on the board has been changed to PreCursive.
- Board now has some papers hunged on.
- Windows changed to two huge ones from the original small one.
- Shelves now have boxes and books.
- The locker has been changed to the teleporter where Akari dissappears after the class ends.
- White ornaments now where the pink ground and yellow wall meets.
- Texture was removed.
The background is now definitely a pure win as long I made it from a 640x480 anime dating 2003 - actually it looks more like 320x240 on my new 24" screen, but it has 11 years after all. Of course ideal would be to resubmit anew, but I fear that with recent lower overall activity of both DA and MT, I would not get even halfof the favs what I got for the old much worse one before. I also left the old date as of nostalgy.
