AKIRA how do u like my bike?

Wow! I love his bike;) I like the dark and "action" atmosphare that I get when look at this wallpaper Really nice +fav [maybe is nice a bad word...]

Amazing and beautiful. Your vectoring skills are unmatched. :) You have done a great job of making this not really look like a vector. Everything is so smooth and clean. The scene is so detailed and grungy.. it's just perfect. :)

I am really at a loss for words. +fav

I like the wallpaper, I never seen Akira but they say its pretty good. The thing I wanted too say is that on the ground you have pieces of the road sticking or coming up. I couldn't really tell it almost looks flat, it could have used a bit more shadows. Also I wish that the other side of the road was as jagged and cut up as the side Akira is on. But other that that this is a really great wallpaper.

>:D zomg the walling machine =3.Awesome wallpaper anbuu.I was waiting for it lol.Whoaa ur details are really accurate the breaking in the road.The bike is totally awesome.And the character is nicely painted.Finally a wallpaper that doesnt miss out details.The perspective of the road is also mind-blowing.The best which i like about the wallpaper is the water bottle on the ground and the reflection.U surely have missed no details while doing it the second thing which i like the best is the bike and the scratches on the bike.Those are simply marvellous.And yet another awesome wallpaper ^^ by u mate. This wallpaper truely shows what a scan can turn into if made with full dedication and concentration!.Top notch ^^ Fave+

*Edit* Oopps totally forgot : Happy 3rd Anniversary WOOT

In full screen mode this paper looks amazing. I can really see the effort you put into it. I have a lot of respect for you after vectoring that Akira scan so wonderfully. Happy 3rd anniversary here, I will continue to comment on and love the great papers you make! :) keep up the great work, anbuu. +fav

Wow, Akiraaaaaaa! Job did a nice job again ( már megint kitettél magadért, irigyellek, szívesebben walloznék, mint szakdolgoznék =_=) . The wallpaper is amazing, really. I can see the hard job, what you did on this paper ( milyen volt a Balcsi? :)

Yup, I like your bike very much. And not only your bike, but also this wallpaper ;3 I waited forever for somebody to wall this scan, and I'm really glad that you was the one who taked it my friend. Actually I have no problem with the part what you mentioned, I couldn't do it even half so good,haha. Good luck to your next wallie, I think it will be fenomenal, when you wanna celebrate you 3th anniversary here. Cannot wait for it, mate! ;3

Why I don't have a widescreen,heh? I need to cut it now, to get to my desktop. +Fav

comical XD really nice job and bagh the bike's awesome XD

The detail is amazing, I love how you incorporated that small pic of Kaneda at the bottom, and your vectoring is just beautiful. +fav

wow, i love it, what i love every details in here so, not much to say but +fav

The rift is fine, really. The focal point of the wallpaper is the bike anyway, so it's not like you really need to concentrate unnecessary details that could distract the viewer. Nice composition, especially color-wise with unsaturated colors and the red of the bike and of Kaneda standing out.

It's awesome. I only miss the pill at Kaneda's back, but anyway it's a great wall. You did a really good work there, amazing vector and BG. Instant fav!!

awsome wallpaper, it looks great, keep up the good work

I like your bike very much :). And your newspaper signature is a nice touch.

If only Akira could have looked that awesome in the actual animated movie! Love the background and the vector, you've really infused your own style into the vector making it a perfect match for the setting. Nothing more to say than that, except:

also expect a better wallpaper next week on my 3rd anniversary here on AP =)

You've just set the bar really high ;D

Totally awesome wallpaper. Good vector, keep it up. I want see moer like this in future from you. Add to favourite!

omfg this is the kind of vectoring that stays in my memory ! definitely one of the most significant walls lately on AP ! fav+ is a must ! setting as my desktop ? oh hell yeah !

the vectoring is top-notch, i love the way u did the bike and the garbage newspapers. the cracks on general background rocks also. nice one, really really nice !

another great wall cool dude using this one love AKIRA

The walling machine keeps on chugging and chugging. Awesome wall. I've always wanted to see this classic scene vectored, though I'm so used to the original poster that I actually miss the giant 'AKIRA' text on the bottom.

Brilliant work on vectoring the bg, and I really like how you managed to convey a sense of destruction and chaos with your vectoring and painting combination. And the sig that's incorporated into the bg is sheer genius. A wall that's going to be a classic for sure. +fav

I love this Wall, the colors are dark but they give plenty of attention to the bike and the main char. Well done

classic wallpaper from a classic scene from a classic movie.

I like the dark and "action" atmosphare that I get when look at this wallpaper. I also like the angle. :] +fav

I like very much. Akira is a Greath manga. And this wallpaper is perfect!

awesome wall one of the coolest akira walls ive ever seen

I love the bike and the details.... the background looks great too. well .. i wish the tires had more details... it looks too smooth... a few ridges would look good on that. its still a very nice wall tho :)

am loving it

Wow.

I mean, come on, from the thumbnail I was thinking "How the hell can this be an A? C- at best. Man, AP really went down the hole lately". Then I clicked to see the full view.

I have seen quite a bit of "thumbnail doesn't do justice" wallpapers here, but from memory I have to say that this one is the most dramatic.

Awesome wall and thanks for sharing it with us. +Fav (I haven't done that in a LONG time)

Hi, as an old Akira fan i only can say: wow quadrat Cool work, adding as Fav is normal ^_^

nice, looks sicc!

fantastic job, anbuu! awesome job on the road cracks :'D

You sure have the talent to jump to such hard projects. I've never imagined someone can vector so beautifully. I love the background and he looks better without that pill on his back. Great job! d^-^b

GODDAMN JESUS FU**ING CHRIST is all i can say superb vector and you created a very nice and fitting scenary to go along with it walls like this just makes my day hats off to you good sir and i like your bike XD

Like.... WOW! When i full viewed this, i was very, VERY impressed! The details are brilliant and executed brilliantly. ^^

Great to see such a great waller bringing life back to a classic anime. Awesome work.

Akira was a cool movie i liked. This wall is simple and great. =]

that's one fantastic bike. 8] awesome awesome vector. i love it, especially the windshield with the light reflections and stuff. (you might start noticing that i tend to "especially" like odd stuff. i mean who says "omg cool! i like the windshield!" right? >xD) the water bottle is pretty too and lol at your newspaper sig.

the rift is fine because the main focus is on that (awesome <--i abuse that adjective too much) bike. there is no necessity to change it, although i think i might know why you do not fully like it. as a sign of destruction, the rift's edges and surfaces are too neat/smooth. the entire thing (very noticeable on the far side) has a single evident edge acting as a transition between the horizontal road surface and the vertical "cliff" side. if this neat transition crumbles in some places (i don't know if you'll understand what i mean), it'll look more "destroyed". and discounting the straight cracks you've put in, the "cliff" side is also very flat. making it bumpier/more irregular through shading may help. once again, no need to change anything; your wall is beautiful as it is. i just mentioned that stuff because i've been trying to create broken up stuff in my own wall. xP

so yeah gorgeous vector with great painting. +fav :]

I recently watched the animated movie, so this wall is came really on time! xD Loves the bike above all, but the background and the dark atmosphere around it it's great too. I'm glad you chose that scan, I simply adore it. Really good wall. +fav

omg omg amazin' wallie from you anbuu 8)E lovely vector and awesome wallpaper :D i love it!

The painting is really well done~ looks so cool xD I can see a lot of minor details in the wall~ i especially love the reflection in the puddle of water >_< A really well done piece~ a fav~ =D

not too many does it better than you, despite knowing there is always room for improvement. nice work

cool

Ah, Akira. Excellent anime/manga. And an awesome wall to go along with it. Magnificent work.

+fav (keep it up) :P

...I like your bike very much actually. Heh. Really, it has nice shines/reflections going on near its underside that I really like. The ground looks fine to me, and overall it's an excellent wall and I appreciate what you've done. Even the papers flying around say stuff on them hehe. I only think the character could have used a bit more detail, but that's probably personal preference. +fav

amazing wall. I'm glad people still make wallpapers for old animes like Akira

Awesome wall! I love the the way the light glistens off the bike. I like the colors too and the way they complement the red very well. The background is pretty good too and I especially like the cracks and those newspapers. +fav

Anbuu! You never cease to amaze me! =O This is definitely one of your best work. I love how you painted the bike and everything else in the wallpaper. Darnit you paint so well! Although im not really a fan of this anime, you've actually convinced me to put this wallpaper on my desktop! (yes it's that good)...so great job as always, and im looking forward to that other wall you mentioned. ;D

+Fav

I like it very much! That is one cool bike < 33 The newspaper is a very original touch and man your grunge background is awesome :o Must fav!!

that looks awesome mate! keep it up ;) i love akira.. i used to borrow mangas from my mate

fav+

this image is a classic. nice wallpaper, nothing is out of place. however the title is so bad... you should choose a better name.

Very nice. It captures the essence of the scene. Beautiful.

What an incredibly awesome wallpaper, I've always loved Akira, especially Kanada and his bike. You did you wonderful job here and I've recommended it to several people already, lol, keep it up.

8)E

Amazing!

The background and the vector are very impressive!

All the details in this job, it's fantastic. I really like the result of this wallpaper, very nice.

This is a great wallpaper, I love Akira and this is the first wallpaper I found worthy enough to be one of the main ones for my desktop.

Wow! i love this wallpaper. i like the background and the vector. i like u bike too! oh... one of my fave! XD

i'm speechless. Great work!

i'm speechless. Great work!

Just great work...(-

I FINALLY have a moment to sit down and give this wall the love it deserves.

Putting my bias of Akira being my favorite japanese animated movie aside...I love this wall. The bold colors, the dark setting, and the touch of your awesome style really make this wall come together. I think it captures the whole feeling Akira has around it beautifully.

I don't have any complaints, so I'll just shut-up and fav it.

TETSUOOOO!

as i said your getting better and better +fav

thats all i got to say

I never liked this anime.....and I've never downloaded a single wallpaper from it. This is the first. I like it, well done!

I name myself "Chikoku shoujo" (late girl) Sorry for being late Dx Your walls are always good definetly a fav

muito com cara adoro esse anime vlw...

Most excellent! I think the corners in the road lack detail, but that's it. Also, the bike is sweet... Makes me want to read the graphic novel again.

I love this one. Thank you very much.

I must say I was very impressed with this. I added it to my laptop! Great job!

Have I mentioned how much I have enjoyed your presence her on AP. Your work has most certainly gotten much better than some of you earlier pieces. Love the focal point, in particular the bright colors. I like how your background turned out, original and not just a stock photo. Agreed, the crevasse doesn't really seem to fit in all that well; I do like the idea hover. Maybe if you move the character and bike up a little and put the crevasse at the bottom, like he was climbing out or something? Also maybe a little more focus on shadowing and perspective would really help it to pop more. Your shading and perspective on the entire wall is striking, the spotlight effect on character works perfectly.

Oh and yes I do like your bike.

The vector is supreme! Also, the contrast with the background is awesome ! Excellent job !

I think its incredible the way it is ^^, maybe if you put a wall instead of the broken road, anyway you made me wanna see the movie again (and again) xD

Really good dark wallpaper. Not really as distracting as some other wallpapers can be. Like it a lot. Of course I like akira a lot too :)

Nice wall. Kaneda and his bike are a highlight of the movie for me. It's fantastic that they have actually made a bike like his. Faved.

Brilliant work. Everything looks wonderful. I love the details on the bike.

This is really well done~ maaaad vector skillz haha

had to be done eh?, wicked (n_n)-b

I really like this... Great paper!

Wonderfull, nicely done, better than enything I've ever done with GIMP and pictures ripped from anime. Miss the Pill/Capsule logo on the back of his jacket, but then it makes it is a politically correct wallpaper for all (as if someone would complain about that). Keep up the good work anbuu. Oneday I'll try makin a wallpaper...

This is amazing, moreso that you vectored it. I can't even imagine how much patience that took. The ground is great in my opinion.

OMGz I MISSED A ANBUU WALL! AHHHHHHHH!

Oh boy, I can't stop staring at that bike. That bike is alone is responsible for bring hundreds of people into the anime fandom. It looked so awesome back all those years ago (which for me was '99) and even to this day it is total and complete win. And now it will be forever preserved in this wall, and that deserves much praise.

That's a very cool bike, I love the combination of black and red of kaneda bike. The color of the kaneda bike stands out from the dark fog. Great wall overall!

such detail and clean really emphasizes the bike with the dark contours. love it

Great man allways i want a image of this bike!

The image with the back is bein very integrated. It's a great job. te felicito. Akira is one of my favorite movies.

Than WALL but spectacular I can not believe in him

I like it ... overcoat than He has that angelical touch That I believe that he is his own of The series..the truth no her and I dress but this WALL this brilliant I like the effect as if made for a ray And there were the background very well

Great work

Great job on the wallpaper. Added to favorites.

This Anime is amazing, and this wall too!!

Thanks FaV+

yeah...... this is what i wanted for all times

HATCHA! Gotta love Akira, wonderful job on this, it's most likely becoming my desktop as soon as I get home (at work). Amazing job, and... I can't believe I said hatcha.... +fav

There is so much detail in this. It almost looks like I can reach out and touch it, like it's 3-D or something. I've always loved this image of Kaneda and you've definitely done a kick-ass job with this wallpaper.

I love this wall. Looks great on the site, looks even better on my desktop. I appreciate the effort you put in, it was exactly what I had been looking for after finishing watching Akira on bluray. Sadly, after completing the manga, the movie seems to be robbed of some of its previous glory for me XD!

Back on topic, this is a great little piece, hope to see more in the future!

Wow very good wall, absolutely love it just like the movie itself 8)E

Wow, relly good wallpaper, thanks or this.P(T_T)

This is the best Akira wall I've seen so far! Your vector and painting skills are insane I just love everything in this wall, and I don't see anything to fix Why didn't I see this one 10 months ago... it had went on my desktop earlier^^ +fav of course

This is just classic >:D

A very nice conception and was executed pretty well. I'd have to say though, the image feels too bright for what seems to be a post-apocalyptic setting, and for that maybe the roads would have deeper cracks with more rounded/eroded profiles. But of course, I'm sure this look is what you intended and it's consistent throughout. =)

The best Akira wallpaper I've ever seen. I really am just stunned by this one. The detail is so very well done and the scene just blends really well. And omg the motorcycle just looks stunning!!!

+++Faves!

Amazing vectoring, and a fantastic movie as well.

This is one of the first anime I have ever watched, whenever I think about this anime I imagine this scene when he walks to his motorcycle.

SUPER COOL!!! I will sure to make it as my desktop wallpaper. . Thank u for sharing.. U did a nice job...

I like the wallpaper, I never seen Akira but they say its pretty good. The thing I wanted too say is that on the ground you have pieces of the road sticking or coming up. I couldn't really tell it almost looks flat, it could have used a bit more shadows. Also I wish that the other side of the road was as jagged and cut up as the side Akira is on. But other that that this is a really great wallpaper.

Wow.. I only know Akira from the name .. never watched it. But this wallpaper is great... great background and awesome details as well as colors and shadows/highlights on the bike and on the guy. Well done on the broken labels and plates as well as the street. This is definitely one of the wallpapers with guys (I remember some Death Note wallpapers with guys on them I really liked because of their quality) which deserves a +fav and a comment.

Thank you for sharing this wallpaper :). +fav dS.

when i opened up this site and suddenly saw this pop up on the home page i was like "dang thats pretty epic" and here Iam leaving a comment which I rarely do. i like the atmosphere of this wall like I said gives a great dramatic feel to it.

Yay! Best wallpaper of Akira I've ever seen.Great job and congratulations xD Domo Arigatoo

The detail in this wall look amazing. XD

oldies :D nice work

very awesome wallpaper. i love this artwork from the akira team and you made it even cooler! i love it! :)

Being a big fan of Akira I find this paper to be the bees knees right now. Thanks for working on the vector!

Awsome bike. It looks like the bike did all that damage to the road. Very detailed. Great job!

OMG, one of the classic anime I love. Look smooth and the black ground reflect a strong message. Good job

I liked the movie it self. And this pic is really nice too. One of the main characters bike looks fine. The colours are my type also. :) Very good wallpaper. :)

Wooow .. Im Impressed ... And you said you werent creavite at the moment ... i cant imagine .. what you could do if you were inspireed .. really good job and thanks for the wall :D !

This wallpaper looks amazing!! Akira is by far the greatest amime of all times! No wonder there are followers in every corner of the world! Anyway the vector art looks pretty! Drawing would look better, but thanks for this!!

You made this scan = win greay work!

Akiraaaaaa!!

Nice wallpaper with the atmosphere of Akira.. this somehow bring a nostalgia from me of Akira that I love when I was 8 <:3

omg best looking vector ever i love it fav!

woooww that bike liiks awesome

Oh how did I miss this? It rocks hard!

Great piece of Art!! You did an awesome job on the vector. The wall looks full of tactile impression.

The coloring is perfect, or at least the "overall feel" certainly is. It is a little disappointing that the "good for health / bad for education" pill bit is missing from the jacket, but given how great this piece is overall, it is certainly forgivable.

Really nice wall, I really like the colors and how vibrant it is. All in all, very nicely done.

P(T_T)

epic! indeed epic! ++ Fave

Akira, classic anime, so happy you made a vector wall out of it!

You did a great job on this wallpaper. I remember seeing the scan of this and like how you painted it. It looks awesome, especially how the clothes are painted. The bike is painted well too. The background is just absolutely amazing. Making sure the asphalt looks hard and textured correctly, that must of taken a lot of time and work. I like how the lighting darkens the rest of the picture and makes us focus on him and his bike. It's a great painted version of the scan. You did a really awesome job on it. Also, all the details in the pic look amazing and I can tell you worked hard on it

answer to your title: "I absolutely love your bike!" XD great job.. great wall. +fav

I have never encountered such a high quality version of this picture. Thanks a lot for the amazing quality and the sheer creativity infused within this piece.

A renewal for a classic scene, its just beautiful.

Great work with a classic!!!

Akira es Dios,que gran scan el de kaneda nunca lo vi antes,deverdad que es imresionante

Fantastic, one of the best dark walls. The perspective is amazing.

Love this background. God that bike rocks!

This bike has the best design compare to all other anime series. This wallpaper is all you need to tell the mood of the original manga series. Very nice work!
