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.
Deep Blue Tessa is my first submission to AP, and I've put quite a lot of work into it - redrawing the scan of Tessa took 2 days by itself. Even the background, as simple as it may look, took hours of experimenting, redrawing, and fine-tuning. All work, including the scan redraw, was done in Photoshop CS. The entire paper took a total of about 3 and a half to 4 days worth of work.
The background is a window in Tessa's submarine, the Tuatha De Danaan. In this particular scene, the TDD-1 is just below the ocean's surface.
The Japanese in the top right reads "Full Metal Panic!" and Theresa Testarossa.
EDIT: Removed widescreen resolutions from ImageShack and uploaded them here instead. Also added widescreen resolutions lower than 1680x1050.
The background is simple, but nice, the aquarium looks good with the fishes. The character looks good, too, she fits to her environment well. Nice wallpaper.
