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.

"Its a lot better than your other walls ^_^ Cuz I all see is sparkles and stuff >_> I really like the overall feel of this wallpaper~ But I don't think painted wallpapers should have textures. Its distracts the "natural paint-like feeling" (omg badly phrased T_T) of the wall" View

"The colors dont really match >_> The girl is red and overly saturated whereas the background has blue tones. How she is just planted in that water is unrealistic. Its just like.. right there o_o No ripples? No reflections? Mountains seem too sharp compared to the water" View

"The wall overall is good ;D A VERY good variety than the cliche walls these days (clouds, moons, planets etc. gotta hate those T___T) The text is a bit awkward? Its a bit too sharp on the edges :/" View

"This image has been walled to DEATH T___T I really like the bright gold color clouds, but not the extremely dull ones near the top. You HAD to stick a planet in there like the other ones neh? >< The texture on it is too rough compare to the soft, light clouds on your background. Misuzu is too bright @_@ And the blue/black sparkles are rather intimidating. The butterfy is horrible in proportion and shape." View

"Seems to have way too many brushing in this wallpaper. Maybe you should only stick with 1 planet in the wallpaper? The clouds seem to be too solid for a light-soft-colored background. The birds aren't that distacting but the butterflys are." View

"The water looks overly saturated. Sitting in the balcony + capturing the night sky has been used so much that it has become a chiche. The starfield and the flowers look as if they were made with brushes and contain no effort. The moon sticks out too much in the background because its missing a glow. *it will take out the rough edges* The color in the balcony has to be re-done because the colors stick out. The character does not fit in the background all that well because of the coloring the artist made it in. Its possible to mix all these vibrant colors you tried to incorporate into this wallpaper but you didn't seem to pull it off." View

"It seems a bit too cliche. The gray clouds seem to blend with the planet, but not with the blue skies. The scan seems too blurry. The blueness on the water cuts into the darkness of the city, clouds etc. The glow of the planet is erm.. too bright? Enough with the criticism~ I like the pwetty shooting star :3 The concept is good, but it seems you over did it ToT HOWEVER, you could have put more detail into the build they're standing on- as well as in the clouds, and the water. The cities look really nice tho ^^" View
