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.

I figured I'd make one last attempt at an abstract/grunge wall (abunge! hahahaha... haha.. -_-) before my senior year eats me alive and then cleans its unforgiving fangs with my homework-rattled bones. T_T ...Me? Dramatic? Why, whatever do you mean!
Anyway! This is an idea I've had for a while... the Naruto wallpaper, in which I portrayed Sasuke's schizo-ness, really got me hooked on trying to show to two sides that ultimately lies in everyone (my own opinion). Good and evil, shy and outgoing, and in Ichigo's case, aimless and fateful. I wasn't really trying to portray the personalities (because then, yes, ichigami would be the one slightly more... unstable). I was going for the ambitions/fate perspective; meaning the normal Ichigo seemed to lack direction, not really knowing what he stands for or what he wants. Ichigami came across as inspired and determined --- wanting to protect strangers/save Rukia/ect. I think I got this impression from him when he thanked Rukia for helping him find his fate by becoming a shinigami, or whatever. Haha, anyway, that's just my weird way of looking at things. XD
And I realize the top is extremely blank compared to the bottom... I want it that way. Leave me be.
Note: I realize the words have an odd placement so just to let ya know, they should be read as Everything is as it... and the separate words on the top and bottom are made to seem like a choice... Everything is as it should be or Everything is as it falls apart.
I'm not really a black and white wallpaper fan, but I like this one.
Your whole concept you have going is great.
Great job on this piece.
I look forward to seeing more themes like this from you ^_^
This is really nice. Simplistic but effective, I should say. The scans you used work well in what you were trying to say. The grunge is also well done, so that helps.
"Should be everything is as it falls apart"? Or are they words not supposed to be a sentence? Still, very nice and favorited!
The wall looks cool, creepy, dark, awesome ~
the words look cool but their spacing seems a bit random ^^;
since most of the wall is black, white, or greyish
the sword seems to have a weird brown lust to it so it should be darker
or have a brighter grey
and its a bit empty at the top lik you said
so it'd fit if you had like black particles or debris comming off the ground
and ichigo's missing his head! That stands out to me ^^:
Other than that, this is a cool wallpaper and has a nice dark aura about it n_nV

Hot damn! This wall rocks one big problem though you tossed this up on MT first :P *poke poke poke* xD Anyway I really do love it you could do an entire series of walls like this, and itâ??s the perfect amount of minimalism. Hmm as far as critiques go the only thing that bugs me is the grid behind Ichigo but that could be just me lol Keep it up girl I love your walls! +fav
Nice wall, I'm so a bleach fan but putting that aside and judging this wall will be easy :). I like the colors used and the rest of this peice. The colors add to the simplisity. I kindof like the text, text isn't all that imporant to me so it can be overlooked but juding it, it seems like it fits which is always a good thing. Nice job.
*Adds to Favs*
Note: I only comment on walls I like and download, so when I comment I normally always fav them becuz I will use them.
*Goes and checks out the rest of your work, if any, lol*
Well now! Being a big bleach fan it's great to know that I havn't seen everything.
The wall is really good and moody ,plus the b/w suits it well.
Thankie-thankie Rocknroll.
O.O...very..good...*drools* Okay, I'm just going to get it over and fave it +fav (Sorry if this comment lacks in criticism, but this is just too good XD)

Wow. I love the wall. Really good concept and the font goes really well with the overall design. Usually, it's hard to find the perfect font but you did it.
