This is c64 colors, would show on a real c64 with a doublesize pixels hack in afli every other line, but nobody offered to code it in so toss it, I'll just post it here and let it be. It's not a ringwraith, before someone asks. It's from the Cthulhu Mythos.

Morgan cook (Level 4 Deputy) at 1/24/2008 9:11:53 PM

 brilliant

Helm (Level 5 Detective) at 6/20/2007 5:53:17 AM
Because I no longer see the point of doing any of that. I don't even own a c64. I know the limitations, I might as well make art for it independently of the machine.

Skurwy87 (Level 3 Stalker) at 6/20/2007 5:01:26 AM
Hmm. . . haven't you asked the guys from CSDb? I bet they would be willing to fuck about with it a little. :)

Helm (Level 5 Detective) at 6/19/2007 9:43:01 PM
With some fucking about, yes, it would sure run.

Skurwy87 (Level 3 Stalker) at 6/19/2007 4:54:13 PM
Bewitching! . . .and you say it would run on a real thing? Wow! What a pity there's no chance to see! 5/5/F

lightning in metal like clothes is great

Voldemo...! I mean... Great work!

styler (Level 1 Rookie) at 5/1/2007 9:33:18 AM
sorry, i'm new here so i tought it was for compo. sorry again.

Helm (Level 5 Detective) at 5/1/2007 6:21:41 AM
What compo? This isn't art made for a pixeljoint competition, styler.

styler (Level 1 Rookie) at 5/1/2007 1:53:57 AM

where are trees ? somewhere in the dark? it is nice anim but not for this compo, i think!


Turbo (Level 1 Rookie) at 4/29/2007 4:51:52 PM
The glow effect on the robes, and the folds are really well executed! Nice work with the palette, as is usual from you. The fire animation looks odd, the fire tendrils spoil the composition, i'd take them out and leave the (nice) animation effect of the fire ball.

philipptr (Level 2 Peon) at 4/28/2007 7:53:18 AM
very stunning work with the c64 palette. the flame animation looks great, but somehow I don't like the light changing. I think there's a too big difference from one frame to the next in some areas. looks a bit like just blinking here and there. I don't really know if it's fixable with so few frames/the c64 restrictions, so if you know that it's not possible to do it better just don't mind my critique ;)

ScarredShadow (Level 4 Deputy) at 4/27/2007 5:49:28 PM
that picture is amazing.

Please birth, and raise my children .

Er, I mean; that is beautiful. Flawless, really.

Fred (Level 3 Enforcer) at 4/26/2007 6:07:16 AM
Lohoho.

6/6+ faved.

Josiah (Level 8 Marshal) at 4/25/2007 3:53:43 PM
Excellent work, great use of the C64's palette. I like the animation and lighting in this piece.

Stitchy (Level 6 Commander) at 4/25/2007 3:37:57 PM
Simply put: AMAZINGK. D:

You are the master, Helm. <3 7/7 and fav'ddddd

jedzed (Level 1 Depressed) at 4/25/2007 11:08:20 AM
wow.. i like the flame and how the lights flickers on the man thing lol very cool 5/5

macula (Level 6 Hitman) at 4/25/2007 8:32:12 AM
The animation on the flames is great.

Helm (Level 5 Detective) at 4/25/2007 8:19:33 AM
Thanks for the kind words. The 'face' in the cape wasn't intentional, no.

DJD (Level 4 Button Man) at 4/25/2007 4:35:26 AM
This is probably one of my favorite usages of the c64 palette. Awesome work helm ( yus another cthulhu mythos piece!)

FrankieSmileShow (Level 6 Manager) at 4/25/2007 4:05:12 AM
When I saw the preview pic, heres what I thought the picture was:

Haha I must be KRAZEE and I SEE PEOPLE WHO ARNT THERE
(or was it meant to be ambiguious? You ambiguious person, you!)

Setzer (Level 7 Mass Murderer) at 4/25/2007 2:59:48 AM
I didn't really connect it with anything other than an old man in a raggedy robe before reading the description. Looks great, although there is something about the flame that bothers me.  

iLKke (Level 7 Mass Murderer) at 4/25/2007 2:26:31 AM
Hey, isn't it Hastur from 27C?
Love Lovecraft and love your style.
And it was about time, you lazy bitch

Elk (Level 1 Depressed) at 4/25/2007 1:44:28 AM
nice helm :) good work

Presley (Level 1 Seaman) at 4/25/2007 1:22:00 AM
Wow, brilliant, especially the use of pure black. Reminds me most of Saruman, because of how his cloak was described as being many colours at once.

Mrmo Tarius (Level 3 Enforcer) at 4/25/2007 12:40:40 AM
omg it's voldemort lol :)
just kidding (voldemort is lame- this pic's great)...

the animation is a really nice touch :)

Ensellitis (Level 11 Special Agent) at 4/25/2007 12:11:48 AM
the only complaint i have is that the glow jump too much for the type of flame, imo anyways.

kick ass though.

gorgothon destroyer (Level 1 Depressed) at 4/24/2007 11:52:50 PM
reallly nice. this is amazing, but mostly epic.

Opacus (Level 6 Yonkyu) at 4/24/2007 11:46:46 PM
Your understanding and applying of colours still amazes me Helm. If you zoom in the on his hood it just looks like alot of mixed random colours, but when you zoom out it looks amazing. I just can't start to understanding. Keep creating this beatifull stuff! 7/7 fav

grave (Level 8 Marshal) at 4/24/2007 11:33:01 PM
Well whatever it is. It is great :D

Badassbill (Level 8 Cannibal) at 4/24/2007 11:20:03 PM
Really love the lighting from the flame.
