Dedicated to `gat
...And where does the newborn go from here? The net is vast and infinite...
please check out full wall, pagethumb and wall thumb dont show enough ><;;
It has been A while, A long while! With this I am making a Short comeback, and not only that this is a 'dedication' wallpaper dedicated to my APcomrad Gat!
The Originel vector from this wallpaper was made by him Linky and used in his last wallpaper dating from waaayyyyy bacckkk. Back in the days of AP-wars between EVI (viva el evi!!) and the crimson orchestra. The days of the GITS group. Also the days when Gat showed really good 3d-computer designd artwork. A style not matched since then. A league of his own with no competition here on AP. I see he is still active on AP but no walls in a long time (hmmmm a bit like me ;)
Time for some wallfeedback. Started with a whole different idea of a wallpaper, watched Speedracer movie and liked it and wanted to make something funky racing. Then found some other stuff and somehow had motoko and a white background. By accident changed that to black and i saw how motoko blended in with the darkness 
so thats where it all started, being inspired by one of my alltme fav wallpapers by `MinstrelKnight layer changing on the scan and adding more fitting colours, first wanted her hair purple but in the end changed it back to blue because of the rest of the colours. Also the eyes of the cat and motoko turned blue to fit the rest.
Added like 10000 brushes overlaying some 'laughing man' artwork. I suck at photoshop techniques like vectoring/painting/redrawing/all-high-effort-stuff, but im satisfied with the result of the brushing i did.
STATS
working time: ±6 hours ( I know a quicky but i work efficient imo when I have inspiration)
Layers: 30+
Programs: Adope Photoshop CS2
I hope you all enjoy this wallpaper and havent forgotten about me ;)
to quote the simpleminds: alive and kicking! but i aint back, to busy for that but i am wachting

Arts in the background is abstract image of cyber world? Concept about it is very creative. Major Motoko is always cool. She is not beautiful, but she is always attractive.

thank you for sharing your work.

I like the vector and shadow-mode (her black gloves merge with a background very stylish)
Though, I think her weapon need some more details. Now its looks too simply and plain.
maybe more light paths and shadows will looks some better... Anyway - I glad to see you walling again:)

Good job comrade!
The blend with the black works extremely well (I like the black ops theme) and the brush work is a pleasant surprise as well. Not sure if using the laughing man symbol multiple times was the best idea, it looks cool but feels a little repetitive. I believe gat remembers my comments about the vector from a while back... man those were the days. (added detail to the gun and line weight thickness or using borderless shapes could have given it a better feel) Nonetheless all of that was only a nitpick.
Remembering that makes me feel like walling something with 3D again as well...
what to do?

Eh, I dunno man, she looks a bit more out of place than I dare to place my finger on.
The wall doesn't look quite right on that.
but effects wise, I suppose it looked quite good, pros on the vector work.

The background looked a bit too empty in the thumbnail but I have to
say that the full screen version is totally different.
The vector is good but I can see some jagged lines on her weapon and on her left glove,
maybe you were in a hurry when you extracted the scan ^_^'' ?
Thumbs up for the background: it really suits GITS and the black/blue contrast is great,
not to talk about the design, really beautiful.

The effects in the background looks great with the vector. But i think i would have preferred the wall without those blue patterns on the left. Besides that, maybe the vector needs some more shadows and lighting effects to make it blend in better with everything else. But nice job on vectoring the eyes though. ;D
