I love how it looks so smooth, but still retains that pixelly crispness.

AirStyle (Level 6 SWAT) @ 10/18/2011 01:37

You may not realize this, but yours was the first pixel art I've ever seen on here. Since then, I always love coming to this site. It's amazing what you can do with pixels.

Merez (Level 6 Hitman) @ 10/14/2011 11:33

This beautiful effect.

Psiweapon (Level 4 Gas Giant) @ 6/23/2011 03:47

Oh wow. It's glorious. The sky feels like a renaissance painting.

Very nice dithering. Clouds are not easy to draw...

Cilein (Level 5 Irish Elk) @ 10/17/2010 12:45

It's not often you can stare at a pile of trash in wonder and awe!

Gonfalon (Level 2 Quiet One) @ 7/28/2010 01:00

Mystic mountain of modern world ! Well done !

Awesome! I'll take a pic once it's ready. :D

Larwick (Level 8 Tengu) @ 4/8/2010 14:47

Go for it. :)

1ucas (Level 5 Soldier) @ 4/4/2010 07:53

To me, this image is absolutely perfect. It pushes all the right buttons for my tastes: red, orange and yellowish colors, clouds, rust, repeating vastness, piles, scrap metal, fog. Ugh.

Can I make a poster of this?

Rain Maker (Level 1 Rookie) @ 1/23/2010 15:46

i look at it and think or mordor from lord of the rings...lol

Dino502Run (Level 6 Serial Killer) @ 1/10/2010 19:27

pipe (Level 5 Detective) @ 12/15/2009 03:18

You can really learn much about shading by looking at this picture

I think I will observe it for another 30 minutes...

Cloveck (Level 2 Hired Gun) @ 8/27/2008 11:19

I like the colors you used, and especially the way you gave things at the top of the pile a sort of radiant outline.

Fenne (Level 3 Stalker) @ 8/11/2008 06:43

Wow, I really like this.
Great job you did on the sky!

Official-NeoSoft (Level 5 Sniper) @ 7/17/2008 01:28

AWESOME! I really LOVE the sky!! It looks really awesome!

danbenevides (Level 1 Rookie) @ 5/28/2008 06:19

Wonderful... I love this palette.

Larwick (Level 8 Tengu) @ 5/26/2008 16:42

Yeah totally. I really like it when people percieve these things in different ways.
And yeah, keep to it and there's nothing to stop you.
I used MSPaint for this. A bit of palette editing in Animationshop though.

Mr.Davpixel (Level 1 Rookie) @ 5/26/2008 15:48

lol its the first thing i thought of when i saw it. As you can imagine, that bright hole at the top would be the esophagus, somehow illuminated ( as if the creature had a light bulb in his mouth) XD. I really love the palette on this peice. amazing work. i hope one day i could get a top pixel art, or anything with a medal if even! btw, what program do u use?

Larwick (Level 8 Tengu) @ 5/26/2008 05:35

Haha wow, i love that idea! :)

Mr.Davpixel (Level 1 Rookie) @ 5/25/2008 18:09

my perception of this is the inside of a stomach. the stomach of one who enjoys eating lots of rusty steel.

Echa (Level 1 Rookie) @ 5/14/2008 05:32

Wow, amazing! I can't imagine how you must have done this one... Great work!

8pixelshighandrising (Level 1 Rookie) @ 5/11/2008 15:17

Jawdropping! I love it, you transfered the atmosphere perfectly. Thanks for the visual stimulant.

Christoballs (Level 7 Neanderthal) @ 2/17/2008 09:31

Reminds me of Duke Nukem... It rocks!

xXHalfieXx (Level 4 Lieutenant) @ 2/1/2008 13:49
