Yet another ZX Spectrum picture: 256x192, 16 colour palette - basically twice the same 8 colours except slightly darker for the second set. Only 2 colours per 8x8 block.

I used SevenuP for the final corrections and to make sure the picture was fully Spectrum-compliant.

This one is based on that photography from a BBC documentary.

Thanks for the comments :)

Sohashu: The ZX Spectrum palette mostly consists of primary colours I would never use if I had a choice, so I thought it would be interesting to give it a go and do a few pictures using those colours to see how it felt... there's probably a bit of masochism there  I do find the 2-colours-per-block limit really interesting to work around, too.

You use this pallette so well.  Excellent work.  one question though:  Why did you decide to do stuff in this pallette?

Nice idea, it looks fantastic, and the palette is very strange in the way it's used it but works rather well. Great work.

Even if I'm not a real fan from the ZX Spectrum world, I really appreciate your related stuffs. It's well inspired. You have an unique style.
