Not too much for me to say about this wallpaper that hasn't already been said: Dalarty has provided a descriptive walk through all the way from the concept idea, to its execution and ultimately its fruition. And you can really see how that careful planning paid off. But it just goes to show, good ideas take time---and a whole lot of patience!
Wow this is pretty cool. i like how you went from contrast to vector or vector to contrst (depends how you look at it lol). the only thing that i think is a little off his the signal or light beam on the builiding to the left. instad of flowing with the way of the buliding it looks like its just placed there. But maybe its my eyes i havent had any sleep. still awsome wall and id love to see more from you keep it up

This akira city shot scan is strikingly tempting, isn't it?
To be honest, my first impression was the scan isn't quite fitting if you were aiming for an abstract design. Seeing your previous works, I think you would've done much better job with a simpler scan that allows your creative flair to do the job, rather than relying on a great looking but difficult scan to work with.
Just a thought, I could be very wrong.
Sympathy for the loss, good luck with your next one!
At first look, this wallpaper isn't very attractive...but when I take a closer look, it's brilliant!
I love the way you vectorize the abstract wave, I really like the color :)
The scan is very nice too, it's a great wallpaper. Nice job, keep it up!

WHOA! this wall is sweet! love the abstract artwork here! Love the colors here! stands out well! has that 'Miami Vice' feel or "grand theft auto" theme ahah Great stuff! I like it! Instant Favorite! Hope to see more from you!
Next time my friend, next time. VICTORY SHALL BE OURS!
anyway, the one thing that puts me off about the wall, is the inconcistency in technique. The ground is a smooth crisp vector, and the buildings are kinda of jaggy. Should've vectored them too. XD
When i first saw this wall on AP's mainpage i thought it looked cool. the black buildings/general movement of the wall are good, though it feels as if the buildings are too rough.. maybe vector next time? more work but better results. i like it lots, otherwise :O
It came out very very nice. It captures the whole heat-wave humidity that I would think existed in Miami. Good job, I like it a lot. (: Very very big too, haha.
I think this wall is pretty amazing! I don't know why everyone thinks you should have vectored the city... I love the city's rough edgy style. and I also love the fact that you can see the sky through the buildings. it's really neat!
Although i haven't watched akira.. and even if you say it doesn't look like akira.. it's really nice.. i think you deserve a better rating.. very cool layout, placing of elements.. very nice! XD

...its akira and i don't even think it looks like akira..
... its the scan of the city..
i really wanted to do an abstract but i didnt know what to do it of.
i started by using colours from the original scan to get inspiration.
i turned out a weird rendition of a very strange strange sunset.
... =.=;
bah i don't expect too much feedback on this anyway
enjoy XD
