Pixel Art Challenge: An Unexpected Guest


icon



And so Pixelween 2025 begins...

The first spooky theme is An Unexpected Guest.

You will be creating a horizontal landscape on this theme. The following weeks will attach to the previous weeks' entries on the right hand side. So to summarize: a horizontal landscape panorama going from left to right.

Who will your unexpected guest be? What are they a guest for? Where are they a guest for? So many questions. Will we get answers?

 
Technical requirements for this week:
Canvas Size - exactly 64 (horizontal) x 96 (vertical) pixels.
Colors - Max 19, use the palette Azahar Streets by ParadoxWhimsy
 
 
Transparency - No.
Animation - No.


The challenge thread will have all the challenge updates. The thread is also a great place to post your WIPs.

It is Pixelween so the only thing you can expect is the unknown

I would say wait and see what happens.  Focus on this week for now.

Thanks, I'm joining! To stay on the safe side as I'm just planning the whole thing and setting up a new project image for this... The final resolution of the entire panorama will be 256 x 96 pixels right? Or shall we prepare for a possiblity of different image width in the following weeks?
