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.
This was my submission at the Battleground against Gat. Link to thread of challenge can be found HERE.
I'm actually very satisfied with this wallpaper. I feel I achieved another gleam of experience in my quest in making wonderful graphics. This is entirely composed of photo manipulation and blending. It was a fun and exciting an experience. I feel it somewhat incomplete since I didn't get to it 4 days prior to my deadline of challenge XD. My style is to make a piece of art. I'm sorry if my walls don't seem very fitting on desktops but hey thats just my style XP.
Thank you Highknees for your critique on pointing out some of the smaller things I missed due to my exhaustion XD lol.

Be-a-utiful, Alex! Jeez, the second you showed me that picture, I knew you could do something just like it! Hahaha, you're getting too good at photomanipulation, I say.
Well, you already know I absolutely adore this wall. I mean, just wow. The crazy background, awesome scan, how do you go wrong? Lol, cheers, and let's not forget the fav. ^_~
Nice wallpaper !
I liked the chaos image givan by the background !! However, some of the clouds and parts of the backgrounds seems too realistic compared to the character featured in your wallpaper !
But you are really right!"Wars are Ugly Affairs" !!
Keep up the good work :)

Excellent wallpaper and the theme is very well presented. You really do feel that sense of hopelessness and chaos of the wallpaper. So many wallpaper elements I have never seen put together before like lightning, smoke, fire... they were all well done and well placed. The background is really stunning. Love it! +FAVE
O_O wow..this is just beautiful!The whole wallpaper comes together perfectly and the mood that you've made is awesome! =D I love it, especially your sky. Good work!! +fav

This thing looks apocalyptic... I wouldn't want this on my computer desktop, I'd rather have it as a print on the wall. You should consider getting this one printed up large scale as a poster or something. It's one of those things that everytime you look at it you get a different impression.
I thought this was one of the best-created wallpapers. The war background has intense fight scenes and a great use of fire, missiles, and lighting. The title "Wars are Ugly Affairs" was an unsual title because it looks as if the character is enjoying the war. Nice textures and skin tones used for the sky. A dark mixture of black, red, and yellow colors. Keep the work and effort up!
Whoa-and i mean-WHOA! This wall like totally jumps out at me. It's dark, and that makes it way cool. The lightning is intense. This wall is much better han anything i could've come up with for Submarine Blue. Personally, I would've added some things to the foreground, but then again i tend to over cramp my walls (hence i havent submitted anything yet), but still a totally rad piece.
Wow great wallpaper i dont watch the show or anything if it is a show but all i know is that when i saw this pic i had to have it as a fav so good work
Haha I notice that's New York City near south street seaport and the world trade center and the brooklyn bridge in the background. Interesting choice of place I must say.
