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.
Gotta love how this wall captures the very essence of haibane reinme in just a few lyrics and images. definitly a keeper, even though it's an older of gideon's, it's still beautiful!
I think I'll upload one old wall a week. Well, old as in like, five walls. Which could mean a year. XD
Haibane Renmei, accompanied by lyrics from A Perfect Circle. If it makes you feel better to think those are coffee stains, then go right on ahead. :halo:
:D i liked this ages ago when i didnt even have an idea how to wall properly XD
anyhoo nice work gid..those "coffee" stains are cool XD
and yeah tool too wooot!
Beautiful! I think the blood stains are lovley, and no not in a morbid, way, though if you want to think so I won't disagree with you...But I think the idea for the wall is fantastic and well done. Usually people just put characters in photos that show the whole character, instead of laying out bits and pieces in snapshots like this, which I like much better. It's got a very still and almost nostalgic feel to it. Great job!
This wall definitly has the emotions of Haibane Renmei in it. And the blood stains just emphasize it more. Not too much, and not too little. Everything blends so well together. Nothing to critique here. Great work!
Very cool stuff, I like how you used the character image and how you cut it up across multi photos. Great use of text and the blood too. Definetly saving for my desktop.
Cool! this is from that angel series right? ... the girl that has gray wings? i love it, especially the effect of the photograph... it looks so classic
Never watched the anime myself but i do love the feeling imprinted on this wall. as everyone has already mentioned the lyrics, photos and blood placed on this paper wall truly bring it together. again great work on this one, i'm surprised i didnt see this earlier back on the older AP.
Meheheh. It wasn't on the older AP. This is the second wall I've ever posted for AP. I've been here since it started, but I'm just starting out of lurkerdom. XD
This is the wallpaper that made me beg Vince to request for an affiliation with you (when we haven't merged yet). I still adore this wallpaper, Gid. You've got to make a walkthrough of this (and show the walkthrough only to me! Mwahahahahahahaha!)
Love this one. I remember seeing it a while back, and it's still as impressive now as it was then. The composition is what really makes this piece work ^^
