Shading / dthering always specific which make you style so cool !
This one a bit darker

avo (Level 7 Mass Murderer) @ 7/25/2010 09:02

brutal

spiny (Level 3 Private Eye) @ 7/11/2010 06:33

I'll never get bored of your pics :)

Strider (Level 1 Private) @ 6/19/2008 15:55

Brilliant artwork, as usual.
You sadistic pervert :)
The scene crime is a bit small, in my humble opinion.

Tirza (Level 1 Gangster) @ 2/22/2008 07:14

Great job!

dakael (Level 5 Killer Klown) @ 9/3/2007 13:42

Marvelous simplicity. Nice one!

cerealkiller54 (Level 6 Made) @ 2/25/2007 10:05

Owwwww....

horcy (Level 2 Corporal) @ 12/4/2006 15:25

this gives me a bit of a Sam & Max feeling only more deadly

I love it!

JaJ (Level 2 Hired Gun) @ 10/17/2006 04:57

I love your characters and shading, though this one is a bit hard to look at...

exocet (Level 6 Major) @ 10/6/2006 04:45

Yes, I've seen a few Happy Tree Friends episodes, I think it's really good. However I pixelled that back in 2000, so THEY must have copied me

=^D Guy (Level 3 Enforcer) @ 10/4/2006 15:45

That is pretty damn good, and Atari ST Pallate? Infact, I used to thought the blood was crapply made, but even thought it might, it's still good, man.

Toe_Fungi (Level 1 Rookie) @ 9/28/2006 23:20

Have you ever seen happy tree friends?

Centrefuge (Level 1 Rookie) @ 9/27/2006 09:20

This makes me happy. Nice job!

Skull (Level 11 CEO) @ 9/27/2006 07:29

I get flashes of The Happy Tree Friends! Fantastic stuff.

exocet (Level 6 Major) @ 9/27/2006 04:55

Thanks for the comments! I agree the blood higlights should have been antialiased (using the lightest orange tone for exemple), but the pic is a few years old and I guess I wouldn't let that happen now :)

Huggkruka (Level 1 Rookie) @ 9/25/2006 12:56

Great pic! Poor bunny though :D

Dysposin (Level 1 Jukyu) @ 9/25/2006 08:12

Just sweet, I like it!

Draco9898 (Level 1 Rookie) @ 9/25/2006 07:06

OH tha's sick and twisted, I like it!

Nitram (Level 6 Hitman) @ 9/24/2006 12:35

oh why oh why a bunny ;-;

awesome though ;D

Eminesia (Level 1 Rookie) @ 9/23/2006 11:59

Oh my... it's awsome! Very strange but I love it. Fav!

Larwick (Level 8 Regional Boss) @ 9/23/2006 09:16

This pic makes me cry in horror and awe :'(
The colours are great, and the style works nicely. I think the blood's highlight is far too bright, and it looks unfinished or not a part of the rest of the image. There are some darker lines which are overAA'd (eg. feet of rabbit) which hint pillowshading. I also think you could improve the texture of the table a tad, as it's rather simple. Other than that, it's pretty good.

Xirkur (Level 1 Private) @ 9/23/2006 08:42

Jesus christ... thats sick! FAV

Gas 13 (Level 9 Boss) @ 9/23/2006 06:20

Legendary one. I remember it was used in one ZX-Spectrum demo even :)

zAk (Level 3 Stalker) @ 9/23/2006 05:02

wow - made me shiver! i love that form of shading you used on the cat (i think). Reminds me of itchy and scratchy.. zAk

ceddo (Level 6 Yonkyu) @ 9/22/2006 16:03

Looks great, and reminds me of happy tree friends a lot! The white of the blood looks very pixelly in areas, maybe try aa'ing that? I love the mood though, it has a lot of flow to it.

Saboteur (Level 4 Shichikyu) @ 9/22/2006 15:00

Couldn't you use one of the reds of the foxcatthing instead of white for the highlight on the blood?

Gruesome, just gruesome.

Faktablad (Level 6 SWAT) @ 9/22/2006 14:47

That's horrible!

That's awesome!

That's horrible!

Setzer (Level 8 Cannibal) @ 9/22/2006 14:43

I love it, although I'm not so sure I agree with the black outlines inside of the rabbit or the white highlight on the blood on the ground. but <3 anywas

Ensellitis (Level 11 Sensei) @ 9/22/2006 13:16

ah... reminds me of my first date with my wife... <3 9/9 fav

HMC (Level 7 General Manager) @ 9/22/2006 12:47

The subject itself makes me cringe, but this is a great piece.

happip (Level 6 Serial Killer) @ 9/22/2006 12:15

mm tomato sauce....

Tremulant (Level 1 Gangster) @ 9/22/2006 11:15

I think I have to go pray...

Haha yeah, great execution, great illustration. Great stuff!

nvision (Level 4 Team Leader) @ 9/22/2006 10:49

I love it! The black line could be softened a bit in some areas, but still a great pic!

Mowzr (Level 1 Depressed) @ 9/22/2006 10:41

This.. This really bothers me.

5/5.

brena (Level 1 Gangster) @ 9/22/2006 09:34

robotriot (Level 4 Shichikyu) @ 9/22/2006 09:20

I'm not really into gory stuff, but their expressions are just great :D

ulbandi (Level 1 Quiet One) @ 9/22/2006 08:58

Oh, I love this. Great pixels, and very funny.

jalonso (Level 11 Godfather) @ 9/22/2006 08:32

Perfectly pixelled. Great illustration. I <3 this.
