I completely understand your issue, however, could you please consider creating some Team Fortress 2 minimalist wallpapers? I would deeply appreciate that

Hey man, I appreciate all the comments! c:
I also posted this on Reddit but I'll go ahead and put it here too for you if it's more likely you'll see it!
I can get around to doing some TF2 wallpapers! I used to play that game so often before Overwatch came out, and now it's consumed my life rip ehehe. I'll add a few classes to the queue, let me know your favorite yo!
Whenever I want to make one of these, I use Adobe Illustrator. I'll go into Overwatch and jump into the hero gallery, find a victory pose or a position during an emote I like, take a screenshot, and port that screenshot into Illustrator. I'll position it how I want, and then start outlining sections of color with the pen tool that will be of significance, like highlights and shadows (Bastion was ridiculous with the amount of subtle highlights and shadows, I probably overdid it on him ehehe and Pharah was a challenge because her armor is so reflective). The hardest part of this whole process is learning how to use the pen tool, since I've noticed a lot of people seem to struggle with it. The next hardest would be to gauge how detailed you want to go.
You can do this with Photoshop as well, but it's a little more difficult since the pen tool isn't as use friendly in that program :\ If you decide to give it a shot and want any help, let me know! I usually check my account every day so I should see if you shoot me a message! c:

Hey would you ever consider making a Pharah wallpaper in the style of your mercy/roadhog/bastion ones? They're really nice but I don't really play any of those characters. I could maybe throw a few bucks your way if you wanted me to

Of course, yo! I'm currently working on Tracer, but once I finish her up I'll try and spit out Lucio as fast as possible then get to Pharah. If you wanted me to prioritize Pharah you could throw some change at me, but either way she's on the list and will eventually be done!
