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.

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

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

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. k:

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.

First:


Second:


Third:


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!
