This is my Third Challenge entry (For the "Close Encounters" Challenge). I made this one faster than any pixel piece before I guess, although it contains things I haven't really tried before;
1. AA on the bright Lines. I'm bad at AA, many people told me I should give it a try, so there you go.
2. Small Canvas. I Haven't really used a small canvas before, besides about 3 or 4 avatars.

You might wonder what the story is behind a flying planet as a Spycraft. I saw no-one in the challenge had made those light orbs like people claim to have seen, or any kind of flying orb. So, thats how I came at the idea of making a flying planet as a Spaceship.

Edit - I also added Captain Saturn himself, steering the spycraft from outside.

So, when you see saturn coming towards you from your telescope, be warned!

the captain is a living rock. Don't you see him sending beams to the spacecraft??

It's hard to look over everything that comes in and compare to rules.  Sorry about he mix-up, but you should be looking at the specifics of the challenge.

I personally think it is quite unfair. You as a team of mods first approve someone's piece, and one day before the deadline you disapprove it. Maybe it would be good to look a bit better next time before you approve someone's pixel art, cause I based my ideas of making a ship only on the fact that other approved pieces also didn't have a captain or crew either.

I would like to have an explanation for this, because I think this kind of things should not be occuring on a forum as big as this.

Yes and no, respectively. Thanks for pointing out the second - I've sent it back and I'm sending yours back for the same reason.

I'm sorry, but does This or This piece have a captain and/or ship? The first one doesn't have a ship, the second one the ship is the captain, so i don't really see the problem.
