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'm really going to have to checkout Sekirei some time (both the manga and anime) Some of those girls look extraordinary. Anyway the wall is great and the gothic look is really impressive for this image. But I got to diagree with Shinn about the jagged edges. While at first I though they were too distracting they kinda add another layer of "roughness" to the wall and give it some texture.
Now come up with some more inspiration dammit!!1 XD +fav" View

" I don't know what's going on this week but I've just been finding some really great walls...and yours def is one of them. The background and scan fit so well together that I'd think they always belonged together. Really great job.
" If I had to choose one wallpaper that truly showed how I feel about Cowboy Bebop it would def be this wall. That sense of freedom and the red/dark sky justt screams passion and blues and jazz. Probably my favorite wall in a long, long, while.
You've jst made a long time Bebop fan extremely happy. *fav*

" That wall is sexy as hell. First pic in a while that I could only use for a short period of time before I had to take it off my desktop. (Just way to distracting.) Think my only complaint as that it looks like it was burned way too much trying to hide some flaws but I'm a man and I can't deny that ass.

" This is just a remarkable wall. I really have to admire the level of work that goes into this type of wall. I always have a fhard time with shadows for some reason and you just make it look so easy and just f-ing epic.
I think my only complaint is that the girl (Meg wannabe) look a little too "vector clean" in some parts of her compared to the rest of the painted background but the flaws can be easily ignored compared to everything else.
" I was going to say where the hell did you come from but why "waste my breath" :D
Truly a master of simplicity. That hair is killa really impressive thanks to those many simple strands. Excellent work. Maybe you'll be so kind as to not havve us wait a good year before presenting us with another work of art. XD" View

(Gonna have to get some tips from you on that...) Evverything else is just so clean and detailed that I might just have to change my whole Windows Theme just so it can fit this wall's color scheme.

" I've mentioned before that this it one of my favorite walls (Not just from you but one of my favorite walls period) and it still remains a fav of mine. Its just one of those walls that just seems to get everything right and perfect for me. You say its cheesy and maybe it is but I think this is one of your walls that jut seems out of the ordinary for you.
" I didn't think I was gonna like this wall half as much as I did fullviewing it but I got to say that its almoost perfect iin my view. If your weren't contending with the AP elite thiswould def be in the top three for a while. I really like those small touches you added to the wall like the flares at the bottom left and such. Really brings out the "fack yeah someone's going to get their bottom handed to them". Nice one right here." View

The mom is hot as always and I actually think you did a pretty ggood job with the out of focus plant life. Only complaint it probably that the color scheme is nearly asvibrant as it should be. Almost seems a little bland. Still one of my fav walls coming from you.
(I still sad there isn't a widescreen version of my favorite wall from you: Hakafu in the cowboy outfit. Fackin' love that one for some reason.)" View

" You've probably justt going through what I went through a good two years ago. Just can't get that enthusiasm to create a wall. I've been trying to get back into walling for a while now but every time I get started I get bored again. Making walls (atleast in my case) seems so limiting now. I really just want to learn how to draw and create my own thing.
Anyway about the wall: As some one who rarely appreciated grunge walls I actually kinda like this one. Kinda like how you snuck Marissa in there. My only complaint is the text which is actually a little weak coming from you. (Plus as a 4channer you know how we feel about text in general.)
Come back soon Omni. You have a few adoring fans...somewhere. XD " View

Nice choice of scan (A sort of differnet angle to your normal "Straight on walls") and another awesome wall to add to my collection. " View

OMG! It is a Grayserg wall! Nice to see you walling again. (Must have gotten a moment of inspiration or something.)
No one seems to have that talent for messing with light like you do. You tend to make walls that only appear in my dreams. I'm really serious about that. By the way I love that cat! Really nice to see your work up her again. Until your next moment of inspiration...Hopefully not several months from now. :)
" Some would say that the you have too much negative space in this wall but I think this wall is just perfect for my desktop. I'm just a sucker for these dark walls with the character taking center stage. Really enjoy this one." View

" Delicious Kyou thigh but I think the lineart could be a little cleaner. (Couldn't really tell on my 1920x1200 screen but can tell slightly with my widescreen TV that the linesforming the leg aren't as smooth as they could be.) Plus I wish youwould have went a little more "out of the box" and add more to the Kyou vector so that it wasn't so simple. Still pretty good and I must say it again:
" Never had much of any problem with someone using Inkscape for vector work. I think its just elitist bullsh*t to keep people down. Its not about vector that makes a wall good (Unless its Grayserg or anolibb godly level of vectoring) but the overall design specs of a wall that make it epic levels of fuckwin. Don't let "the man" keep you down. XD
Anyway I say very nice job with the wall. I tend to like these vibrant full of one color walls and kinda feeling that painting style you incorporate when you use those inkscape vectors.
Doesn't help matters that I've been having a love of loli walls in this last few weeks. (I sure Chris Hansen is getting ready to beat down my door any minute now.)
