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 comment from me, Gatoi-dono! Since you vectored it from a manga, I'm bowing again before your skills, it's a fantastic job - a perfect vector!
The colors are very lively and the background is very matching with a really huge sky!
I love it. Also like the choosen scene - Mugen vs. Jin is the fight ,what I always wanted to see.
Favorite granted.

Nice one man, successfuly brought that low detail manga pic to life. There are a few minor problems here and there with the lighting you added, depth issues and coloring. Like on the sword, or the fact that the red guys left arm and right arm are colored exactly the same color even though they are closer or farther away from the light source (sun). Also the PURE black pants of the bottom guy loses depth as well. I really like the composition and angle ALOT! and the background mixing with the vectors is simpily amazing. Seriously tho, i love clouds so much and the clouds are really good! Id just fix up some shading problems here and there(oh also, in the bottom left corner below some clouds it seems like there is a big purple blob that has sharp edges just floating there), a little quick fix could make this an SSS XD.
I think the vector and the clouds are nice.
The only thing that I don't really like is the colour of the sky. It looks too fake, especially right behind the characters. I'd go for a sky that has either a little more white added to that blue to make it lighter, or even a little more lavendar to make it slightly purple. It just looks like an odd colour right now.
Woah, I've never heard that anyone has vectored a manga scan into their wall before...pretty cool !! I'm sure it also took a lot of effort to get the colors right and the BG looking fantastic. Wonderful job, couldn't be anymore happier with it~
Its a nice idea, good job with the char ;D
though the sky seems weird to me @__@ its like 2 diff styles of clouds, and i dont think either of them work. xD lol
Great stuff, as always ^_^
The vector from the manga is really great. The angle is just right and the sky is cool. The only thing that bothers me is the ground. I don't think it should be that dark.
It's Nice Wallpaper.
Blue Colors in the Background and Two Samurais' Poses Look Like Dancing is Really Really Calm Peaceful. I Can not Think Their are on Fatal Dual. Ironic Sence about Them is Very Unique and Interesting.
Their Poses are Filled with Smooth Activity and Atmosphere of Freedom. Silent Sky Makes Them be Like Flying without Wings.
Thanks for Your Good Work.
Wow, you made this wallpaper out of THAT scan?! This is pretty amazing! It's so clean and beautifully coloured, I thought this was taken from sort of official coloured scan... I love the sky, by the way. That shade of blue, the blend of colours in the sky... it gives the wallpaper this huge, open, and very summery feel. Awesome work =D.
Wow that is some excellent work making that image from a single panel of manga.
Such a lack of good samurai champloo desktops due to so few good promo images in circulation, your effort putting together a desktop from a different image really paid off.

maybe someday, in the nest 80 yrs, i get as good with PS as you are now. then maybe i can make somewhat decent walls, as opposed to your amazing ones.
Great job, thanks for this :) Faving, despite the lack of a widescreen size D: d;
