I don't see any asbestos? and why is there a monopoly man?

What the hell?

I like your works!

Thanks Blick! That information will prove useful in my future endeavors. You're right about the lack of impact- I noticed that as soon as I colored it. It looks more like the fist is being pressed against the face than accellerating into it; I'll try to fix it.

I love it when pixel art is used as more than just a portrait, or a sprite, or tiles etc. Scenes like this are just so much more interesting, in my opinion. One thing I'd like to see done is more impact in the hit. It doesn't look to hit hard, perhaps have the guy's far eye closed tightly or squinting in pain.

As for what makes something pixel art and what makes it oekaki, pixel art is usually considered something done pixel by pixel by hand. It's done by zooming in, placing pixels, zooming out to see the results and repeating a few dozen more times until it looks right. Some pixel purists even consider the fill tool to be a "dirty tool", but most just think of tools that anti-alias in any way, or index painting (too hard for me to explain) as cheating. Oekaki has half toning (automatic dithering, basically) and is generally just a sketch, not a real completed piece, but in this case I'd consider it to be close enough to pixel art.

this! this is fucking priceless. awesome shit my friend, pure comedy, i love it.

dude pass me some of what ya smokin'   nice one mate

Apart from there not being a lot of shading involved it gives it a rather cartoony look. I like the concept, and the colours are cool. Nice work :)

looks like PA to me
