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.
It's my birthday today!! To commemorate, here's a wall about me; the things I love.
First off, this is dedicated to Tate. She's one of the closest friends I have, online and off. There're only two other people I love as much as her. Thank you for putting up with me Tatorio. And for being willing to wait 30 years to see this wall. XD
I started this wall the week before Anime Expo. So, the end of June, last year. At the time, Taters and Evol were the only people that actively talked to me, and that I considered friends. Derek and I were still just friends, and he'd just flipped his car. (No one was hurt, just the car.) Now I have more friends than I ever thought I would, and have had to make several more signs to accommodate them all. So, here's to mark my year of growth. I'm another year older, and finally looking forward to the years to come.
This was all done with the lasso tool. Absolutely NO PEN TOOL. I hate the thing. And vectoring. I have no patience for it. XD And everything except the scan of the city was remade. The top half of the clouds were with a tablet. The bottom was with a mouse. The girl is from a scan of one of Asian Kung-Fu Generation's albums.
Now here's some fun for you guys: Go through and list off as many things as you can figure out in this wall. The person with the most gets a wall of their choice from me.
Example: The Tommy Gun means I like the 1920's. The Absolut bottle means I like Absolut ads.
So all you have to do is list what all the pictures on the signs mean. Anyone can do this, even the people that know me, except Taters. She gave up that right a while ago. XD PM the list to me, you have until. . . Monday.
