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.
@Damo: Well when I click on it to sign it in, it takes a while to load and then a message appears saying "click troubleshoot and we'll repair the problem" Doesn't tell me what the problem is after.
Well, if you want to know more then I'll be available through PM or MSN, whichever is best for you. Rather not go further into on the SB of all places. =P
Also submitted on Minitokyo!
Woo, first submission on AP! Hope you'll accept me!
Anyhow, I'm too lazy to type the details over again, so let's copy-paste from what I said earlier:
I finally managed to finish this wall!
After going through about 6 or 7 different backgrounds, this is the one I stuck with.
I'm not sure if I'm totaly satisfied with the "final" result, but if I make any changes whatsoever, I'll be sure to update ;)
Layers: 38
Time: 5-6 hours
Oh, and Kira and Lacus are completely vectored. Time: 5 hours
Original can be found here. I got the scan in a big Gundam SEED scan package, but I can't remember from where! I remember the site being a dark color... if anyone knows what site I'm talking about, please tell me!
This wall is dedicated to my good friend Ryo-chan! In fact, the title came from her, and the basic idea was her's too:
MSN Conversation
Chloe-chan: k f**k. I can't think of a bg for Kira and Lacus!
Ryo-chan: hmm... think of a blue ocean and a nice blue sky with clouds
Chloe-chan: I can't do water. and I'll only do a day-time wall if I can't think of anything else.
Turns out I couldn't think of anything else XP
Anywho, comments welcome!
Thanxs for the dedication, i knew my idea would work, hehe, love the work on the background and the characters look great too, nice job, glad that you like my idea hehehe, +fav ja-ne mata ne chloe-chan
Very nice. I really like the clouds. It's totaly putting me into a peacefull stat whenever I look at it. By the way thats a very nice couple you put in too. lol
I love the feeling of this wall.
technically speaking, i really think you can do better than regular filters as this wall kinda has that, "i'm your everyday wallpaper" kind of thing to it.
but the execution is very fine, the concept, though rendered by many other wallers, this one truly depicts the mood of love.
job well done here!

Very nicely done! Overall it's a really beautiful wall, the background is very light and airy, the pale colors are perfect for the image and it really looks like Lacus & Kira are floating up in the clouds.

mamoru . . - stellar
but the waves washed it away,
then I wrote it in the sky
but the wind blew it away,
so I wrote it in my heart
and that's where it will stay.
