Howl's Moving Castle wallpaperby ~SWFan1977

Fan Art / Wallpaper / Movies & TV

My Miyazaki collection continues with HOWL'S MOVING CASTLE. This one actually evens out my wallpapers as it is one of the ones I did by putting the characters into a natural background. So now I have three wallpapers with natural background and three with background made up with art from the movies. In this case I wanted to place the castle in a place that matched the majestic feel of the movie. So after one failed attempt to place the castle behind a European city, I settled on an image of New Zealand.

After that the challenge became what to do with the human characters. So I hit upon the idea of shrinking them to be the relative size they would need to be to fit in the castle. So we have Howl and Sophie on top of the castle about to take flight. To the left of the castle is Markl, Turnip Head, and Heen. To the right is Old Sophie with Heen beside her. And to finish things off I put one of the airships in the corner. Enjoy!
