    I looks ok I guess but not nearly as cool as it looks during the day.  I was hoping it would look better at night I personally think that it dulls out the picture kinda hiding the cool aspects of the wall.  I would recommend checking it out on a breezy day with good sunlight.

    I agree!!  Check it out during the day!!
