Ok for those of you who don't know what I'm talking about, Watase is Yuu Watase, creator of Fushigi Yuugi, Ayashi no Ceres, Imadoki, Alice 19th and many more. I scanned the pic from a very purdy poster in a Fushigi Yuugi special phone book manga I bought recently.
The wallpaper features all the male and female main characters from her big series. Anyways, I loved the piccy so made it into a wallpaper. I'd love some feedback on it :)

I like it but, there's a few areas in the extraction that need cleaning still. That and the BG is a bit on the plain side.

Any suggestions on what kind of background I could use? The original had pink.. sploges (probably supposed to be sakura petals) on a white backing.

Everything looks nice and you don't have a lot of negative space to be fill in..so I guess add nothing? oh yea that was a great help I know.
I am not being creative today. sorry

Eh, stick with what you have as a BG, just spice it up a bit somehow. Add some color to it...

I suggest, you use a circular water ripple effect on the background like on my wiz wallpaper I did awhile back, then drop a completely white layer over the water layer. Then drop the opacity of the white layer down to around 50-70%, then pull out the eraser and use a nice large brush around 200-500 px, and with a blurry edge. Then change the flow to around 30% and rub it around the center of the whtie layer until the water dropped background appears around the edges from behind that mass bodily form that you call a scan of Yuu Watase's work. :rolleyes:

Orr, you can just browse around some tutorial websites until you find an effect that you think would look cool...Maybe something abtract or so. ;)
