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.
"If the BG was stock, the thick outlines on Yoko would be weird, but since the BG is also vector everything looks just fine to me! I'm going to fave it just because its Gurren Lagann AND it features Yoko! The lighting is awesome and ... she's leaning over. :x Nice one man!" View

"I love the detail, once again you have proved you can exceed beyond the norm when it comes to vectoring. It looks great but its VERY similar to your last wall which is featured. It has the same mood and in respect, it is not as breathtaking as it could be. I suggest you vary your subject matter a bit, next time try something without grass and flowers. That being said, the grass and flowers are MARVELOUS and so are the clouds!" View

The character vector is great but I don't care for the BG at all. I dislike the text even more. >_< Dunno dude, I understand its a warmup but I'd like to see more from this. I think it'd look better if the big flames didn't have an outer stroke line around them. If you made them all solid like the corner ones it'd be better. Actually, if you kept the right corner flames(maybe extending it out a bit towards her) and made the entire rest of the wall red with that pattern it'd look cooler IMO. Also the text is a grunge font that doesn't really fit this wall at all. D: " View

The clouds are wonderful, very realistic with shading in the appropriate places! I think you should have placed a very light texture over those rocks because right now some parts of them remind me of a paper bag. o_O On the whole its awesome but some areas with the shading look like folds and the colors are the same as well. Just a minor thing, I'm probably the only one who thinks it. So glad to have you on my team! " View

"You're on the right track, nice colors and composition. I think the stroke around the purple kanji on the left kills the soft, smooth feel from the rest of the wall. If you removed the stroke it'd be a lot better. Try blending them in with the splatter brushes in the back. Also, the brushing between the two characters is a nice transition, but it needs work. Try duplicating that layer and working with dodging and burning to give it more depth and effect. Its pretty good but it could be a lot better. " View
