This wallpaper was derived from the second season's opening of Shakugan no Shana. I had been working on it since summer 2010 but ran into initial problems because I couldn't get the platform and railing to look right. It wasn't around October and November when I really started to work on this wallpaper more and more.

The background comprises mostly of gradient meshes along with small paths with a 1-2px blur applied. The font I used was Optimus Princeps because I felt the serif matched the theme of the anime.

The overall look is nice except for one thing - the character's vector is too flat compared to the rest of the background. She has only 2 different color tones for each color and not enough shadows...

Some areas of the background are a bit too blurred (the closer portion of buildings), but overall it's nice.

Wow. Incredible wallpaper all around. I love the color, scenery, and clean lines. Great job.

Love the view of the city, but as red-eclipse pointed out, the character is a bit too flat compared to the rest of the wall. It's not that big of a problem though.

Wow this is really a nice piece of work!

The background is absolutely beautiful with the character standing among the city landscape. It creates a dark and heroic atmosphere, withe colour of the city and the glow of the sword. I like how there are embers coming from the sword.

Adding to favourites. Thanks for sharing!

Nice wall, the BG is so great. Colour combination are good too. Especially the flame around her, i like it so much. If you Improvised a little bit with the wallpaper title, it will be Perfect.

Something did look out of place and... Red Eclipse (I'm used to calling her Phoenix >_>) hit the nail right on the head. There is just a slight lack of unification of the piece as a whole. This could easily be fixed with texture (hint hint). The text is kind of out of place, but I can't really give advice on how to fix it. I suck at it.

But it is really nice to look at. If you fixed some of things things I think it would be fantastic, though.

Oh, and sorry for the double-post, but I forgot to tell you that I think the background is too blurry. While it's ok to have blur by the horizon line, I think most of it is unnecessary.

Amazing, how did you make the city? If I remember correctly, there shouldn't be the view of Misaki City this wide (Correct me if I'm wrong)

But I kinda agree with Red-Eclipse, the Shana needs a bit more shadowing.

Overall, great job! :)

In your wall I particulary like how you have made the city and the light & fire effect. Added on my favs!

nice wallpaper, the city looks good with the light and unsharp effect, it has a good harmony with the night. To Shana, the strand of hair over her face looks a litte strange or is it just imagination?

The wallpaper is really nice, but I'm no sure about the text, it calls much more attention than the rest of the wallpaper, a smaller, and more discrete text would look nice.

Overall the wallpaper is good, the bg is nicely done, so as Shana, even if she looks a little bit off the scene. There are some things that could be better, but i still like it :D

stunning, although the text is a bit too stand out-ish and could have been better blended in. the style is most intense, I like this sort of view from behind walls and I can't lie. perpectives of the buildings and blur could use some work still but it is good as it is.

Wow, its been a while since I've commented on a wall lol. Anyways this wall is awesome, I'm always a fan of city backgrounds cause I'm from one of the greatest cities in this world and its always nice to see some cool action being done in the city. I like the cgi look of the city while the girl standing on top of the roof is holding a flaming sword its pretty epic. Overall great job hitting the favorite button now.

LOVE it, great wall! I don't think the character looks too flat, she just looks like anime - which she is. Only thing I don't like is the text, it detracts from the gorgeousness of the wall. Great work!

I totally agree with red-eclipse, that the character is too flat for the background. But nonetheless, I like what you did.

The background is looking very good, the nightly cityscape looks nice and illuminating, though I wouldn't have those fire sparks from it, because they don't fit into the colder colors. The character is looking good, she fits to the background well. Nice wallpaper.

Interesting wall! I like the perspective and this scene. The only thing is that the red lightning seems to be too important in comparaison with her fire sword... but it's just me! Really nice!

I like the version without text a lot more, the text takes away from all the work you did on the city. Looks great, plain and simple is always the way to go!

Hm...background looks nice but something about the way she looks makes her seem really out of place when compared to everything else.

I like revision 1 better, only because it seems to fill up a little more space that feels empty in the other version. Th colors are great, I love the red glow and then the smaller sparks. They just add punch to it. Revision 1 looks like a cinematic shot! Love it.

I love the background for Misaki City! Maybe you could have placed the text from the previous revision in the top-right?

But that red light at the bottom-left is a bit too bright. Still like it!
