Artist's Note

To the song "Mr. Self Destruct" by Nine Inch Nails. You don't have to know the song to appreciate the wallpaper, I suppose.

Modfied clipart, tried to make it "minimalistic" or at least clean.

I don't know how band-oriented wallpapers are regarded, but by no means, do I have the urge to follow a certain a trend. Constructive comments appreciated, refrain useless comments that won't help me any further.

***UPDATED VERSION***

As said in the comments, it was suggested to me to drop the text and the "explosion"... so I did. As for the bombhead, I'm sorry, but I like it that way, it seems "clip art" because, well, that's what it slightly is.
dropped the rest kinda makes it more minimalistic, which was what I was aiming for, I guess. I tried adding, changing editing things, but nothing seemed to fit, in my perspective.
PLEASE comment away!

This image has style. It would have been neat to perhaps have a version where one has no text or explosion.

I agree with Wynton; love the idea, but the text and grey mass look out of place and don't add much.
Just a side note, you can't port a wall, just export in different resolutions... which I might very well do.

Yeah, for me this piece would be perfect without the text or the "explosion" on the left side. Very nice work, you were very inspired!

I hate the bomb, it looks very "clip art" to me...I would work on that...the body is so textured and detailed, it deserves a "head" that matches, if you will. But ya...I love you for bucking the trend, and using your own style. Also I could do without the text...but I appreciate the black and white pencil drawn style!

the body is awsome bt the "bomb" needs to match that - and maybe just a gradiant or something in the ng would have been better.

I agree with bijou about the bomb (well, I don't hate it, I wish it has more details).
I like the explosion and the text effect, but the explosion seems to be inside a square. Keep on the good job.
