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.
Not much to say... the 12th was my birthday but January so far has been a bitch. Been working overtime... if I'm lucky I get off at 7pm, if I'm not I get off around 10pm, so I worked on this in whatever little waking hour I had to keep from going insane. It's mostly me experimenting with stuff like patterns, cropping, colors. Had to scrap 3 or 4 different background concepts before I hit on something that looks semi-decent, so overall this wall failed pretty hard... but I'm sick of working on it and really want to move on to other stuff, so here it is.
Showed a few people this and that variation of this wall, but gotta thank tat0es and gids for the continual support.
Additional res available @ pixel ellipsis, as always. The new layout was uploaded a while back but if you haven't checked it out yet, definitely give a look and tell us what you think. My online activity has obviously decreased in the last couple of weeks and will stay that way until late January/early February, when I'll hopefully get my life back, but all comments/criticism are appreciated and will get read sooner or later.
I think that this looks great! The way that it is centered really lets you focus on the butterfly, as do the colors because they aren’t overwhelming. The background also isn’t uber busy, so it doesn’t take away from the sweetness which is Ai Yazawa’s art. I love wallpapers like this. Good work.
Even though it's hard for me to find a wallpaper because of my screen size, this one just fits in well. Nice colours, textures, and all. A favourite indeed.
What a beautiful women !!!!!. i love the color too , her lips make me want to kiss them. wavy hair and her style clothe make me fall in love with her:)

Its a really awesome wall... with great color contrast. My only problem with it are Yukari's lips; although the rough vector look was clearly what you were going for, stuff like the shape of the face were done pretty cleanly. I don't know how the original scan was, but here it looks like the lips aren't part of the clean look; which I find a bit odd.
Gorgeous wallpaper! The vector is beautiful, and the colors are perfect. I love the speech bubble with the butterfly. The background seems a little plain next to Yukari and her dress, but that's probably for the best.

So simple yet so elegant. This wallpaper is beautiful. I love the textures and the composition. I also like the colors and the faded retro look. However, the butterfly seems a little out of place for me. I like having the butterfly, but in my opinion, its style seems to not fit with the overall look. Still, this is a great wallpaper.
I love the patterns! i love the fashion the most about paradise kiss. i love it so much. and you captured this in this wallpaper. thank you for doing that, the vector is really clean and the colors are very smooth
Un muy buen walpaper *-* ...me llamo la atencion enseguida cuando lo vi, muy original, su estilo, junto con los colores, una combinacion perfecta *.* ademas q me encanta parakiss >.< y amo a Caroline XD
Cool wallpaper! paradise kiss designs are really elaborate, that i like your choice to keep with a simple background. i like the color scheme and the subtle addition of the plaid pattern. great job!

Yukari vectored from this scan, butterfly from this scan, background pattern from stuntkid.com and plaid pattern from devART.
