Okay, to start off with, I hadn't realized how absurdly difficult this wallpaper was going to be to put together. I first got the idea that I wanted to do this after watching the Fortune Cup on 5Ds. The rivalry between Jack and Yusei with their dragons just felt like an appealing subject for a wallpaper. What I didn't count on was the time it would take me to put the pieces of this all together (adding in once I got the motivation to actually do it, considering I've had all of the pieces for at least two weeks ^^;). Rendering the dragons literally took almost two hours alone. I played a lot with the background, and for the dragons I added in what I thought were the most appropriate effects: sparkles for Stardust and fire for Red Dragon Archfiend. In the end, this was the result of a lot of work and tinkering. Hope everybody likes it!
