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.
First of all, I'd like to say that I just found out that Chiaki made a wallpaper with this scan also but it seems that I'm too late in submitting. One point that I noticed, although we used the same scan but the result is a bit different in the lining and patterns so I hope you appreciate each of our work without comparing them =)
A Code Geass wallpaper. I shed bloody tears in finishing this one TT_TT There're a lot of details and lining >_>... Now I really know why Clamp's artworks are always the best for me xD
Scan Source : Minitokyo.net
Working Detail :
I started with the simple pen tool and dragged here and there. After finishing each part of the render, I wondered what patterns should I use to fill them, actually I don't have a lot patterns but I tried to search for my older folder that cointained packs of brushes, gradients and patterns.
I feel dizzy when filling the Christmas boxes @_@ There're too many xD but fortunately, I managed to finish it on Christmas Eve day ^^ I rushed with the time because I slack off for a week xP and thanks to that, I barely slept and worked at midnight TT_TT
I'll stop so far because I think this's the best I can do for now.. It's not flawless but I still hope you like it =)

I enjoy both of your guys work. Im all for more christmas wallpapers even if its only slightly different then the other wallpaper. Plus you can never have enough of the delicious C.C.
Thanks for sharing this wallpaper, and right in time for christmas day too :)
Hahaha, you removed C.C.'s pizza!! it was the best part of the wall XD
j/k. love the colors without the dark borderlines in this one! good job! and merry christmas!!
Two weeks to make wow lol, I bet it took that long with all that detail to vector it. I don't really like how the vector doesn't have the outlines that much I like the ones with them alot better. But still looks really good non the less and you did a good job at keeping the detail though.
Both wallpapers are nice for their own reasons. I liked how you deleted CC's piece of pizza and added a little present box in her hand but that made her expression a bit weird/funny looking don't you think? Karen and Lelouch look great alright, and I've noticed that you've made a really good job in the box/presents designs. Some of them look...what can I say...way too improved, and that's a good thing. It's nice that we see this picture today (X-mas) as it is to be expected that wallpapers like this (or pictures in general) would be liked more at this time of the year. The only bad thing that I can say is that the white lines in CC's face do not look so well. I don't know how to put it but it would be nice if you would make something about it. Anyway, all the best and happy X-mas.
Yes, i noticed that there's another similar one but you made a discutable choice :
Removing the pizza from C.C. ... I think that now, she's really hungy ^_^
I think that you should have put a bigger gift in her hands in order to compensate for the pizza loss :p
Just an opinion, good work.
I like both of your guys work. Im all for more Christmas wallpapers even if its only slightly different then the other wallpaper. It would seem it's a pretty cool show, I'll add it to my to-watch-list.
