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 one features Hei as his dopey alter-ego Li Shenshung (hence the title) from the anime Darker Than Black.
I wanted to try something new.. thus, I went for a retro-y bold coloured wallpaper. Kinda like the art you'd find on graphic tees these days.
The waves were hell to vector, I don't know why. They look easy enough...I got the styling for them from an awesome tattoo of a Koi fish. and the typography took me forever. I literally spent an entire day going over different fonts and positions wondering why nothing appealed to me aesthetically.
Anyways. Now that it's done.. I hope you all enjoy it!
Edit:
The bg colour I'd originally made the wall in... if anyone's interested:
I did't look "Darker than Black" anime, but this wall attracts glance, and i with pleasure clicked on this. Good though and mildly rough outlines object - main trump this paper. I think so ^^'
I loveee DTB...and i like your concept here on the wallpaper, im not a big fan of the dark brown as much, but i love the hot pink flower colour that you chose, really stands out from the rest of your work...it is very simple, perhaps a little more detail? Great job though!

Awww!
I love Hei when he's trying to fake (?) being nice. Maybe he really is nice underneath it all! That's sorta the sense I get, but maybe it's just wishful thinking. Cute wallpaper!
Darker Than Black!It is a good cartoon.I like Black very much.I think he is very cute.I think this wallpaper is good but if the the wallpaper background is black in colour.I think it will be more better.Because you use Black to do the wallpaper so I think you use black colour will better.But I like this wallpaper..Thank you for your sharing.
I like the general idea of the wallpaper, the colours i am not so crazy about, mabe if you used some hot colors instead of green it would make a difference at the endo, everything else i think is nice
nice work, keep it up
This is a pretty nice wallpaper. You did a nice job vectoring the waves, they look really nice. I also like the colors that you chose they look really good in this wallpaper. There is one thing that ruins this wallpaper for me. The boxed character thing. Why is he square? It just looks lousy. I would suggest not doing that in the future, it looks cike you just cropped it from a scan. Well besides that one thing this is a fairly nice wallpaper. Good job. Keep up the good work.
Great wallie! I love Darker than Black! Especially Hei! I love the colors you chose, they blend well with the bg and everything. The wallpaper is interesting, Hei is usually, I guess, a more darker character, but in this wallie, you make him looks so bright and not a contractor? Anyway great job~! =]
