Here it is, my entry for this weeks' challenge!
Thanks to Frankiesmileshow for such a great theme (you a tarot fan, Frankie?) :D

Trivia: the only 'green' color in the picture, is actually a pure gray tone, but it looks greenish due to the rest of the palette. How our senses are easily deceived!

I love the shading of the bricks, and the tower.

ManningKrull (Level 9 Executioner) at 12/3/2008 10:16:03 AM
I love the fluid look of the lightning!

Pat (Level 1 Gangster) at 9/20/2008 3:36:09 AM

Dr.naCo (Level 1 Rookie) at 9/9/2008 2:51:15 PM
I love the moon is beatiful

AndyOaks (Level 1 Rookie) at 3/19/2008 1:58:32 AM
Your lighting is excellent. I love the details on the little characters being thrown from the tower.
Good work.

Miumau0 (Level 5 Soldier) at 11/29/2007 5:55:01 AM

Simply amazing 0_0

Kaz21 (Level 1 Jukyu) at 10/18/2007 7:04:17 PM

I love the lightning strike and how the tower crumbles.


zennext (Level 1 Intern) at 9/22/2007 4:09:38 AM
I really like it! Especially the thing you did with the green!

pain (Level 9 Nidan) at 5/4/2007 1:24:34 PM
nice as always ... castle rocks :)

Mr.Pharand (Level 2 Quiet One) at 4/20/2007 1:43:16 PM
Wow. Just awesome. I can't think of a single thing wrong with it. I mean, the lightning looks a little flat, but hell, I consider that part of the style of it. The moon, tower, background, all very, very nice.

Josiah (Level 8 Marshal) at 4/15/2007 3:03:47 PM
heh, 2nd on challenge, AND 2nd on Top month

congrats

Guts (Level 2 Corporal) at 4/13/2007 12:53:35 PM
Very impressive, look like Amiga or Atari ST rendering game style. Cool !

rats (Level 1 Gangster) at 3/20/2007 6:06:39 AM
Make some more pixels please!

rajkosk8 (Level 4 Deputy) at 3/20/2007 5:04:41 AM
super i like the action and stiff dead figure of a right guy flying thru da air.

TreborReitnemrap (Level 1 Rookie) at 3/17/2007 11:58:59 AM
I like how the birds just chillin. Like, "Oh, would you look at that."

sausage (Level 5 Sniper) at 3/15/2007 1:09:28 AM
Great work on making the building Crumble!

Biffo (Level 1 Rookie) at 3/14/2007 11:21:09 AM
This thing rocks.

iLKke (Level 8 Cannibal) at 3/14/2007 7:40:22 AM
Silly me. I used an old version of Promotion.

Gas 13 (Level 9 Federal Agent) at 3/14/2007 4:43:24 AM
A very silly thing is to call it silly instead of answering the question.

iLKke (Level 8 Cannibal) at 3/14/2007 4:23:53 AM
@gas: that was a very silly thing to say, there are several imperfections on the AA of the lightning

Gas 13 (Level 9 Federal Agent) at 3/13/2007 6:20:26 PM
Wondering what's your tool for pixelart? It seems like AA is somewhat generated for the lightning.

drZool (Level 6 Serial Killer) at 3/12/2007 3:08:34 AM
Yeah it's tough competition (My first), good luck to you and all other entries. I love your entry. It made me push my self on my entry.

HeroMan (Level 3 Enforcer) at 3/11/2007 10:46:06 PM

FlyGuy (Level 7 Underboss) at 3/10/2007 7:47:26 PM
What is this weeks challenge? I would like to enter it.

inkspot (Level 4 Button Man) at 3/10/2007 8:39:58 AM
This is such a good picture that I may even give up this weeks comp... I love the motion it has, those people falling there really add much personality to this perfectly rendered picture. Only thing I don't quite like, is the weird shaped lightning, its a bit overreacted compared to the rest of the piece. But overall it has nice HAGAR feel to it.

Feron (Level 5 Sniper) at 3/10/2007 4:19:53 AM
The best thing i've seen all year (2007). Awesome style, great pixelling and it works so very well.

Elk (Level 6 Serial Killer) at 3/10/2007 4:07:11 AM
i agree with fool ^^

Fool (Level 6 SWAT) at 3/9/2007 6:11:56 PM
That's just awesome, everything balanced so well...=)

iLKke (Level 8 Cannibal) at 3/9/2007 1:21:14 AM
Wow thanks for all the positive feedback!

Setzer (Level 8 Cannibal) at 3/8/2007 6:30:33 PM
Love the rocks.... they rock.

khorin (Level 1 Gangster) at 3/8/2007 4:42:49 PM
A definitely beautiful piece you have here. My favorites would have to be the moon and the quarry (sp?). Great job!

jalonso (Level 11 Godfather) at 3/8/2007 4:41:38 PM
-IMPRESSIVE-                 

grave (Level 8 Marshal) at 3/8/2007 3:08:03 PM
Well i guess i might as well already give up then :p

Imagician (Level 3 Hatchikyu) at 3/8/2007 1:14:11 PM
I really like that "chiseled" style (bricks, wings...) and the adorable use of the palette for the shading and the background stuff. Also, the moon's corona adds nicely to the atmosphere (though I think it needs more clouds in real life, since it's an atmospheric (pun unintended ) effect). The only thing disturbing my eye is the crooked treetop far left. Your installment comes very close to the 16th card of the Major Arcana

Christopher (Level 5 Killer Klown) at 3/8/2007 1:07:43 PM
Ah. i love this especially the background for some reason.

FearMyFox (Level 1 Rookie) at 3/8/2007 12:14:42 PM
Lovely, brings back memories of Abe's Oddysey of some reason. *nudge nudge* But the eagle need some better shadowing.

exocet (Level 5 Captain) at 3/8/2007 11:01:40 AM
Wow, that looks amazing! Great style and colours and very detailed!

Dra_chan (Level 8 Shodan) at 3/8/2007 10:51:04 AM
Wow, I like everything about it. Good job, I agree this is the best so far.

Jonathan (Level 1 Thug) at 3/8/2007 10:42:27 AM
Really nice job you did there =)

Doppleganger (Level 5 Rokkyu) at 3/8/2007 10:35:10 AM
This is too good to ignore.  I really love how brilliant the browns are in comparison to everything else. The palette is worked extremely well and borders on the effects I would, one day, like to achieve. Really good stuff, I'll have to fav it.

[thUg] (Level 4 Mercenary) at 3/8/2007 9:16:57 AM
OMG! Your colors and style blow my eyes out of my head!

fil_razorback (Level 5 Lieutenant) at 3/8/2007 9:14:18 AM
Instant fav and 7/7 =)
C0ngrats ^^

This fantastic :) I like the light. The best work on challenge :D

Max Marshall (Level 1 Gangster) at 3/8/2007 8:32:27 AM
That's pretty sweet dude!

iLKke (Level 8 Cannibal) at 3/8/2007 8:27:51 AM
@Liman: It's God's wrath!

Varock Shade (Level 7 Underboss) at 3/8/2007 8:20:52 AM
love the detail and colours! that you did this in just over 3 days...

Liman (Level 3 Chief) at 3/8/2007 8:17:25 AM
Awesome work! Most likely the best entry right now.
I only find it a bit weird that the lightning strike comes out of... nowhere?

Emanu (Level 3 Chief) at 3/8/2007 8:08:14 AM
damnit man, now I have to work hard to beat you... ;)

Ensellitis (Level 11 Sensei) at 3/8/2007 7:58:10 AM
this IS the best entry so far, great work

ptoing (Level 7 Underboss) at 3/8/2007 7:39:32 AM
This is awesome, best entry so far imo. 7/7 fav.
