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 this wall as meant to be confusing and thats the greatest thing about it. I like the way the icons in my desktop contrast with the weirdness of the wall. The samurai champloo writing was not meant to be read either (strange, dont you think!?) beside all that mugen has some penetrating look in his face. Thats not the first version of the wall but its the first one that im uploading it, please make some comments. Hope you like.
The japanese writing shaded into the back
was the first thing that got me
but the wallpaper is done realy good
and mugen looks realy kool with
the fire behind him it
is a good symbol of his personality
and reminds me alot of the show
one of the best ive seen
will add to favorites
I like that you incorporated a japanese newspaper print in the background. Was that part of the original scan? Funky! It's a tad bit too dark for me though :3
This has got to be one of the best wallpapers i have ever seen. the newsprint at the backround is yes amazing, i love the characters, you have just got to love that mixed with grafitti...new term"JAFITTI" combination of grafitti and japanese anime. i just love this wallpaper.

It's cool, rich and complicated. i love the colours and your concept (the newspaper article, and it's japanese!) a little too grey but excellent.
fabulous concept
a sure fav

Whoa awesome! this has one of the best thing, ive seen this pic so many times but just like everyone else, i like the newsprint in the bg.. my current fav. right now ^^
I love this wall for many reasons. I love the texture and the use of over laping letters. The colors match nicely but what I like the most is that it's different.
This is pretty cool! i like the messy look... i think you could have done something better with the overlayed text layer though, like warp the text or switch it around so it wouldn't be too... blatant for a lack of words :p the main image could use a little brightness/contrast adjustment too i think. but overall i like the idea and the composition of it. :)
I like this one better than most, because most of the Samurai Champloo wallpapers are too simple, this one looks like you took some time in making it.
