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.
This is lovely. I love the way you positioned the image. It's so simple, and yet not at the same time. I love the colors on this, albeit not being a huge fan of pink, but you pulled the color scheme off really well.
You did an awesome job on this, I'm definitely faving. :D
I love the colors they are so cool!! you should make more wallpapers you have a lot of talent, and the wallpapers that I have seen (yours of course) are so nice too ^^!! You use the patterns, brushes so well. try doing more ^__^ they are awesome!! :3

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. Great work.
