This wallpaper captures the urban essence that proliferated the art of Ghost in the Shell in every incarnation of the series. Phill does an amazing job of capturing a moment of surrealism.

While there are a few, stray building angles and shadows, you find that your eye forgives the minor details and instead focuses on the overall scene that is larger than life, with lights trailing off into infinity.

wallpaper link

This is a wallpaper that I made using a couple of scans here from AnimePaper and some custom brushes I downloaded from Brushes by Pange. Please tell me your thoughts on this... I have been practicing on my own wallpapers for a few years but I just joined AP and thought I would share this wallpaper I made recently with all of you. Please give me any advice at all! I know I need it! Thank you :)

you're a little too modern for my tastes.

It's hard to tell with that filter, but I think I can spot a few extraction problems (especially in the hair.)
I would re-do the extraction, and either try to tone down the pink, or bring out some more colors.

Hey thanks for your input! :) What do you mean by filter? XD

Would anyone else like to share their thoughts please?

Definately work on the extraction. I also think that it's too monotone and could use a little more depth. One last thing is that the girl in the upper left just appears to be floating there and doesn't really fit well with the rest of the wall...

Wow... So much RED... It's not that I don't like the colour.. But it's really hard to tell anything with this kind of "red filter look".

The signature is very blurry.
The size doesn't correspond... It's supposed to be at least 1024x800... You're just bellow...

The scan background need a good clearing.

Mellykill probably meant the grid + red layered over the scans. they just cover everything...that's a bit boring for me. and they tend to hide extraction/quality problems that are best fixed up rather than covered up. anyway, though it's nice sometimes to have a nice red tone for everything, right now, the reds look rather dull. brighten it up a bit and see what happens. and i don't quite like the font choice of "flame haze"...or its size in comparison and relativity to the main text, the romaji name of this anime. and to correct that bit of minimum size info zazou8888 gave above me, the minimum size acceptable at AP is actually 1024x768. this is just for your own information. so yeah, anyway, good luck.
