Hitler vs. Burns :: Pixel Art Detail

I love the pink shading - the reflects from the sky?

Very very very nice! Hilarious!

i would loooove to see the other couples some time...

I will translate LuX' comment: "Since you're a german why do you write English?" (I think you might have guessed so already ). I'm writing in English, because most of the community members very likely do not speak German. Übrigens Danke für das Kompliment (BTW, thanks for the compliment )

lol Wennst eh Deutscher bist warum schreibst du dann Englisch ^^? Dein Pixelwork ist geil <3 Super Idee =D 5/5

Like the way you made Burns, dont really get it, anyways really good 4/5!

funny lol its cool

Love the edit. Thumb up.

Cool.  I would give burns an old pistol, and give hitler a Nazi officers sidearm. 

UPDATE: I added purple reverbation to the clouds and removed the black lines. Looks better than I expected Also added AA in several places.

@ Huggkrak: I absolutey (!) see where you're coming from, but in fact i did try to keep originality in mind. I remember an episode where Mr. Burns was trying to beat up some board member or such in some kind of meeting (don't exactly which episode). I remember he did so using a baseball bat (and of course failed). That's why I chose it.

Anyway, if I would replace it by an ancient kind of weapon, I think I'd give him a flail very probably. An epée would look to elegant I think .

Burns's weapon of choice is a minor complaint I have. Baseball bats are for common nimcompoops, Burn's should swing a 500 year old epée or something. :D Otherwise this is a great piece, very humouros.

About the rabbits (forgot to mention) @ milkyjon: That's a gimmick I saw a while ago somewhere I think, and I adopted it as some kind of stylistic device I use quite frequently in my works (not in pixelart until now, though).

These ones with the red glowing eyes are a special version, called "Herrenhasen" or "Hitlerhasen" ("Hitler hares"), which he kept aside Blondie unnoticed by the public for some cuddly hours (in fact, Blondie was just the prestige-pet for the public image, but these ones where his privily lovies )... Ok, so much for the history lesson "Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Hitler (But Were Afraid to Ask)"...

Thanks for all the comments so far Now all that's missing is for the picture to rise to the top of the list on the Pixelween-page :)

Maybe I'll try to improve it shortly, especially the purple reflection on the bottom side of the clouds as suggested by Gas 13 (I had thought about this myself already, too, but couldn't wait to post the piece). I hope I'll find appropriate colors, since I already adjusted the picture to 32 colors (saving a lot while creating and then putting all the rest into the copper sky eventually).

I really like this one and I whole heartedly agree that it deserves its place in the pixelween contest. I wasnt sure myself wether cartoons were allowed to be submitted but there has been one on the boards with the queen of hearts from alice and wonderland for ages and as I said in the very first post of the edward VS the mummy Edward scissor hands isnt a true villan. Hey what about Stayy puff marshmellow man vs tremors sand worm or the evil kid catcher off chitty chitty banfg bang VS chucky, gremlins or critters. Anyways enough of my rant....I really like the clouds and the floor reminds me of reayman raving rabbits off the wii somehow. And Mr Burns VS Hitler what an idea, true contest winner there if you ask me. Well done.

Brilliant work! I love the style - and the great little things you added, such as the Burn's quote. I think the lack of AA in many places is offputting for me though (being an AA freak as myself).

I saw Hitler in a movie and how dare you not remember Treehouse of Horror????? Anyways - i guess thats too bad, still great piece... zAk

Great job. It looks awesome.

You could put some purple pixels on cloud bottoms to get a nice feeling of sunrise/sunset. Not sure if there's a way but avoiding pure black outline would help it look less... dirty maybe. Can't find the right word, sorry.

The face of Hitler shaded really well and I love the way you play with lighting.

As for the contest rules I remember the post by pixelblink at Pixelation <a href="http://www.pixel-arts.org/pixelation/index.php?topic=2084.0">describing the rules more clearly</a>. Anyway it's a good piece.

The rules do not explicitly imply that the villains have to be from movies. Hannibot and Robucula are not in movies, simply a "Zombie" isn't from a certain movie as well and Jack the Ripper isn't from a movie originally either, but was made into several. By the way, latter goes for Hitler as well (there are several documentary, narrative and fictional movies about Hitler, as well as for Jack the Ripper).

So, it's already in it's righful place -- the pixelween page

Too bad it doesn't count... I like it.

no, it does not count for pixelween...

"You must state in your submission's description which 2 villians you have and what movies they are from"

neither have been in a horror movie...

although nicely executed, it wont be voted on for the contest

yes, i believe it has to be a movie, but i think its a little too billowly, but u got nice lineart
