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 absolutely love it. The idea is amazing; the caption ("I gave you Roses, you gave me Bullets") is wonderful. One thing that bugs me, though, is Badou's right hand. I keep staring at it and thinking it looks strangely out of place. (I thought it was another person's hand at first until I saw the scan.)" View

"Very nice. I like the overall effect. The only thing I didn't like is Renji's face in the background. I don't think it's prominent enough; I didn't see it until the second glance." View

"Gives a nice, creepy feeling, which I like. The only things that bug me are the moon and the building. The moon appear a little out of its element in the wall here. As for the building, I'm not sure I like it; it doesn't seem to do anything for the wall in general." View

"Overall, I like the feeling the wall evokes. But I'm not sure I like the background because nothing in it really sticks out for me. Also, the character and the bars don't blend in smoothly - either into the background or into each other." View

Shinji - Nightmere train

"Fascinating concept. I was wondering if that was a train I was looking at in the thumbnail and lo and behold. Overall, very nice, but the middle portion looks a big crowded. It's hard to see what's there. There is a sense of speed, though, as though I can imagine or even see the train moving." View

"Nice overall concept, but the nightsky has way too many stars in it, IMO. I don't quite understand the title, "Road Kill," so I'm not sure if I can say that it goes well with the scan, though. But on the whole, nice." View

"Too much grunge, and the character is a little hard to see. Also, the font could be a little bigger but I suppose it's fine the way it is if you didn't want to focus too much on it." View

"Personally, I think the background is a little too realistic for my taste. It doesn't go too well with the scan because of how easy it is to tell one's real (as in a real photo) and the other not." View

"The background is just superb. I agree with the previous comments regarding Magus' coloring. The contrast here, unfortunately, doesn't work too well and the brightness just throws off the entire dark red scheme. And there seems to be little blurs around the text." View

"Interesting concept. I think it works pretty well and looks like a movie poster. Although, the names don't really work. Firstly, putting Sephiroth in there would be rather spoiling and there are so many characters in the movie. Putting some means putting all, since most of them had about the same important role as each other." View
