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 wallpaper here! Very great. I too, love the coloring. it fits the character/scene perfectly." View

"Background effects are just a bit too much and too snazzy. The bars look a little too 3D. However, I think the wall is great otherwise, and its a wonderful idea." View

"I love the background. Absolutely. I think this fits Lenalee perfect. I just don't like Lenalee. her vector is off..lines are too thick and not precise enough. If that could be fixed, its great." View

"Hmm. The sky just..isn't right. The roses aren't bad, but when I think of this anime, its much darker scenes, and esp considering these two characters, this is just too bright and cheery a wall. If this was Suzaku and Euphy that would be totally different, but not these too. Keep up the good work." View

"I think this is a great idea, but I think the grunge type affect/texture washes out the characters way too much. I'd try it clean, without the texturing, or with it a lot lighter than it is now. Keep up the good work though" View

"This is a good start, but I think think the background is missing something. It needs more color. My thought is..more red. I'm just not sure if that's the right background for this image, but even so, good job." View

"I really liked this. I prefer the image you posted without the white stroke. I think Ichigo's head is just a tad on the small side, though I know you had to fix it, maybe you fixed it a bit too much. Other than that, I'm going to say I think its perfect. Good job redrawing all the missing parts." View

"This is the best wall I've seen for this series yet, in my opinion. Awesome. I really like the coloring, and a good vector as well. Mayhaps a texture might do something interesting to it though." View

"I just happened to stumble upon this out of no where, and to say the least, I'm impressed. i just wish the cat was more a tiger than a lion, as that's my favorite animal. Nothing you can do about that, just my wish. Really keep up the good work." View

"This is really beautiful, I love the affects. I think the only thing I don't like is the text. It distracts from the image a little, in my opinion. Considering how great the image is, we don't want that!
You might try alternate colors as well. Some of the greens and dark colors taken from the other scans." View

But for your concept, I think you did great work. :) Good job." View

"Wow, from that black and white scan to this is quite the impressive work. Good job. The only thing I'm not quite sure I like is the fact that it still has the texture of a scan. I really love the dark feel with the splashes of brightness that stand out well. Just what I look for in a wall." View
