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.
"Very cool wall. I like your music theme alot. Your style is amazing and your execution is alos very good. The only thing that gets me a little bit is how the scan just ends at the bottom, it's looks like it was just cut off. I think it's supposed to look like the images are growing outta the purple, which is a fantastic idea, i just think the effect is brought out so well.
However, the wall it's self is brilliant. It is a colourful wall, yet still has a hint of melanchony to it, the detail is really good for this style of wall, I know a lot of people see this style as an easy way to wall, but to pull of a great wall you have to put alot thought and work into how to make it look good. because you can a tell a lazy attempt from an well executed one, and as i said it is a well executed wall.
Needles to say, + FAVE
"Well done, it is a very nice wall, very good extraction, nice combination of colours, filters and textures. My only crit is the brush work is a little outta place, however it still works.
Ps - I had to make tea after i viewed, i couldn't resist.
"Very nice work, I like the simplicity, and the plain B&W wall, it's refreshing that you didn't add a third colour, like red, lol, though i am guilty of this in my walls. i also really like the lighting, especially on the tachikoma.

"Very cool work,I love simple walls, the B&W and Red walls always get me, the thing that i like the most is the scan and the texture you used on it. I dunno it pulls it together. Very nice work." View

"This wall is amazing... the atmosphere, the lighting, the scenery are all extremely well done,the thing i like most though is the small details for example on the car and village, it's the smalls things that make this wall good.
"Wow, first off great vector! The lighting is amazing and the detail is subtle and the vector blends really well. These vectors are the best kind. I viewed the wall before reading your note and I wasn't sure if it was a vector. real nice job
"Dude, i think the background distracts from the main scan." View

"I think the leaves work well, especially with the blur. It adds realism to the wall. i think the big leaf in the foreground is too distracting from the main vector. and perhaps the leafs overall image quality could improve, ie, being vectored to the same quality as the main vector, which is awesome quality.
Overall! great wall, I hope to see it finished soon so i can fave it!
ps - please make a widescreen :)

"Wow
I like this wall, i agree with you that it's a bit flat, however i also agree with you that it is complete.
The wall is "simplistically detailed" which is great, it creates an atmosphere, which i think is what you were going for.
anyway great wall

"OI OI OI!! KONO BAKKA!
It's about time dude!
This is amazing...
a couple things you need to do before the Admin here will accept your wall.
first you need to improve the sephiroth scan, it's too low res the same go's for the abstract background. also maybe change the colour theme alittle.
other than the actual over all image quality, I thinks it's great! the drawing is very kulu... otaku style. lol.
"Wow, phenominal work! great vectoring O_O and great style. it's really a great original wall.
i really like the way you made all the elements fit so well ie, the text, flowers and face. nice work.

"Nice work, I really like this series of walls you've done, Clear and simple design.
"Dude, i really dig this wall, it's simple, stylish and well thought through... it has all the elements i love in walls it will be up on my desktop for a while. Very under appreciated though.
"Hey kleaf, good to see you back buddy, i too have been away for a while...
anyway, nice to see you did another original piece...my only crit would be the text is all the same colour, a range of different colours and opatcity of the text might look good, anyway, thats just my 2 cents,
i like the colours alot, very trippy and effective, some people can don't know what colour paletes to use, you do and you've proved that through all your work.
The eye is done nicely, i like the sketchy-ness of your style and again the colours really work!
and last but not least the message of the paper is very cool.

"Well certainly is a new direction for you clara, lol. I like it alot, the quality of your work is awesome as usual, the vectoring is really good. The layout is simple yet effective, you have a good colour theme and they blend really well. however i think the colours could use more contrast, perhaps some white brushwork behind the scan, just to highlight the main scan. anyway that's just my opinion.
Overall classic Clarings piece and a definate Fav." View
