A World Without You

EDIT: Yes, this is also up at animepaper.net Sorry about the name confusion...

Oi... the keyblade looks like I rendered it with a bloody toon shader. >_>;;

Well.. This is my first 3-D render wall... made the keyblade (harder than it looks!). The beach, for the most part, is from highend3d.com, though I edited the hell out of it, and you can hardly tell anymore.... This was more of a lighting test for me than anything... the beach wasn't cooperating though (the sand grains died, ugg!). I got the water to look the way I wanted, once I rendered it out a couple of times... Sora started out as an actual model, but I obviously blurred him, etc... This is the longest I've ever worked on a wall straight. O_o;; Five hours now.

I wanted this wall to be a little blurry... like a fuzzy dream you're grasping at just as you wake up... I think I achieved it.
