First I found all the images that I wished to be in my wallpaper. 
I then used the Illustrator's Pen tool to trace the outline of the images and to colour them in to turn the Images into Symbols. Once I made all my wanted Symbols I saved them into Illustrator symbol archive and opened a new document. In the new Document I opened symbols and went and found my symbols I had made and started to piece them together until I found a pattern I was comfortable with. I then saved it as a JPEG. I then Opened Photoshop and made a new document. I then loaded the JPEG image I made into Photoshop and clicked edit and define pattern to make the Image I had made into a pattern I can use. In the new document I made I used the bucket tool and selected the fill to use which was my pattern. I then clicked on the white page and my pattern had been filled on the screen.


I like the fact my pattern has the Logo to my Favourite anime hidden in it(the hidden logo makes up the odd shapes in my pattern) the fact it has been kept simple and that it had worked better than I thought.

I can improve it by adding a background to the pattern so its not on a white background, some of the shapes are not fully aligned which annoys me a little and I could have used more symbols in the pattern to make it come alive even more.
