Title: No Worries
Character: Luffy D. Monkey
Series: One Piece
My Comment:

First and foremost I made the vector of Luffy. It took me a simple 19 layers, but regardless he turned out by far better than I had hoped. Originally I made the vector not planning a wallpaper but I did anyway because I wanted to turn the vector into a layout for my shrine to One Piece, so I made a wallpaper first. ANYWAY! Made the vector for Luffy, re-sized, and placed on wallie.

Now, Luffy's colors were already pretty nice and sharp because he'd been vectored, so I ignored him and worked on the background. I found a random image of a sun setting beach and used it (you can't really make it out anymore; I only used it as the starting point of the wallpaper, it hardly relied on it at all). From there I threw in some brushes. I wanted the wallpaper to give the feel of "No Worries" because that's kind of how Luffy is and in the vec too. Brushes: stars, a few flower heads. *shrug* I just used a lot of effects and lighting to achieve this. ENJOY! =D
