So, I'm quite fond of pixels and pixel art, which may not be a surprise seeing as I'm here on a abandonware page, sometimes this fondness of pixels take the upper hand and I feel compelled to express my artistic side, this is the result of such a moment, it's not finished yet though:

A pixel forest, using about 40 colors or so. Actually I've just picked it up again after a couple of months of dust gathering.

:kosta: thats good, very good :kosta:

WTF???? You drow this only with your mouse and pointer!?!?!?! No other options? Pure pixel?

Well -----> :kosta: :kosta: :kosta: :kosta: :kosta:

wow, this is really beautiful!! must have taken some hours to finish this pixel art!?
great thing - i bow before your ability :ok:

That's lovely! :ok:

How do you make pixel art? I have no idea. =/

It's a dreamy scene. Simple, though it has real magic. I can't stop looking at it. Well done, Wired. :max:

You can find a simple tutorial here: www.pixelfreak.com/tutorial

if my memory serves me well.


Well done Wired. I've been meddling with Pixel art myself to a couple of years ago so I know what you have been through to make this ;)

I'm not really into pixel art but I've been looking at this piece of art for about a dozain time now and everytime I look at it again I can't stop but thinking that this is really one of the sharpest and most beautiful pixel art I ever seen.

So this would rank extremely high in my book. Great work. :ok:

Somehow,
The phrase exit doesn´t fit,
But the picture itself seems almost like hand painted -

Quite Good...

Well, thanks everyone. And yeah, it has teken quite some time to do, especially as I only use the mouse (I'm to cheap to buy a tablet). The program I used was: GrafX 2, a great program for those who like to pixel, and free so that helps.


And here is 3 pictures to show how the image evolved, beginning, middle and well not last but latest.

Here's a avatar I made that shows the character I intend to add to the final image... whenever it's finished:

oooh, look mommy, it's death!

Great!

I do a little pixeling myself (as you can see in my portfolio), and I also use just the mouse. Who needs a tablet? The difference between you and me, though, is that I only use Paint :ok:


And of course the fact that you are better! ;)

What book? :blink:

The book "Puk Goes Shopping"

Anyways, great pixel art. Almost can't tell it's pixel art anymore :D

My personnal big book of life. :bleh:

I like this picture. It looks like from some fantasy game of the early days, so well detailled...

Well, it reminds me on Lands of Lore - Throne of Chaos. Very good work. :ok:

Indeed! I tried myself the way of pixel art....and I'm quite sure it'd took me days to do something like that (well, to copy it from yours :whistle: ). Great job! :ok:

Hey it took me days too. The hard part is getting started but then it's a bit easier.

the art is just amazing!!
:kosta: everybody bow to the new Pixel Master!! :kosta:
