For 2024 april fool's day.

At the beginning my purpose was only make the clouds, cause I love them in original one. Then I thought why not add something in middle. I decided to draw numbers 666 with flash, bones and metal materials. But after finishing the first one I thought why not make something more interesting and then guitar appears.

It's not even close to original style, I think I messed up with perspective and these skulls and bones are tougher to draw then it might seems! I hope I have learnt something by making this

But I think at least it's pretty recognizable and reading this you probably know that's Gawrone's style. 

There's no nudity, but just in case I put adult check

 Only just saw this today, but you definitely had me fooled. Love all the detail in the skeletons. I'm assuming those are gut strings?   Great piece!

Probably it didn't changed because you left the same name of the file. Change the file name and try to update again.

You have no idea how honoured I feel. Unfortunately I do not have all the answers to your questions right away. But I'll think about it and try to formulate something if you would still be interested.

When I woke up and saw this long message, I thought I did something wrong haha :D 


Glad you liked it! I remember that your message in Discrod about honoring, hope this piece does it in some way :D

I had to study every pixel in your original work, that was very fun and your use of colors there something beyond my understanding. I'm really curious now about how you came up with such different poses and the whole shape of this...tree of life? Tree of death? How did you choose colors for them? What was pipeline?

This bass was my ref btw https://www.pinterest.com/pin/guitart--363243526181443134/

Btw, no one mentioned, but this is 666x666 size, I know this is important as well. Unfortunately, I didn't have enough time to fill it fully

Thanks for the frame! Is it supposed to be for preview? I tried to update it, but it didn't changed  Upd: changed it's name and it worked out

DUUUUDE!!! This piece is so cool it's ridiculous. I saw it last night on my phone, when going to sleep, and it made me both smile and cry at the same time, so I decided to wait until I sit on PC today, to not overshoot the answer. But I woke up and decided to go live from mobile anyway, because you deserve not to wait.

Wtf, I'm pixelling for 5 years and someone made an April Fool's piece for me? I mean, recently specialmin64 convinced me that I do have a style, this piece is beyond awesomeness. First second I saw the preview I was shocked. Is this a stolen and edited piece? Is this a spam account? Is this an AI shit? Is this a joke? Yes it was a joke and a successful one and amazing one. And you made a bass?! I love it so much. How incredible it would be if Ibanez made a custom bass like this? I want one. I would call it the "Skeleton Pizza Bass". But this bass is so good that it is going to heaven. You did fantastic job with that distant fading into the light of the sky effect. But you did an incredible work with everything actually. That sky is exactly like on my piece. But you also have your own individual touches like the bloody fog over the landscape. I wish I had this Idea but I did not. If I ever decide to use it I will credit you as the author of this idea, which I'm definitely stealing now. I examined each skeleton becasue they are brilliant and you made them much more interesting then mine. They are not just some pile of nameless skeleton mass. They are individuals. My skeletons are like the Borg collective while yours are Federation. The skeleton doing the metal horns gesture is the king or queen or queer, can't really say without nudity, but there is also a skeleton trying to pluck the giant string, and the skeleton who is just chilling on the side. Damn, there is even a skeleton with the x eye suggesting that it is dead. I mean, the skeleton who is dead? Is is a dead undead? Or maybe a double dead? Over-dead? How twisted, postmodern, multilevel inception of death it is? I love this piece. You made a great art and a great joke, and you made someone feel great. This is a description of an awesome person! Yes, it's you.
