I'm just stunned. This piece is so beautiful.

5L1V3R (Level 1 Private) at 1/10/2008 6:41:42 PM
that's weird it hurts my eyes to look at, but its really good.  nice AA

sondre (Level 1 Rookie) at 12/28/2007 11:03:54 AM
my beloved brilliance, naturally :)

Frost (Level 4 Murderer) at 12/28/2007 9:18:46 AM
What software are you using? Looks a little bit like Brilliance... :)

Dairy (Level 1 Rookie) at 12/28/2007 5:55:14 AM

Hell, this is pretty cool.

I would like to know is possible to make such a nice picture.


volcom (Level 1 Rookie) at 12/26/2007 4:42:10 PM
this is a really awesome pixel, but i can hardly stand to look at it since its so ugly.

Jools64 (Level 1 Rookie) at 12/23/2007 3:58:11 AM
its freekin awesome apart from the colour count

Zephiel87 (Level 3 Hatchikyu) at 12/22/2007 8:51:03 PM
The art is great!
The pixel art, not so much. 94 colors is far too many, and even with that many colors a couple areas are left without any anti-aliasing (The right side of his chin, his left cheek, and a few other spots)

MoonPanzer (Level 1 Private) at 12/22/2007 2:03:39 PM
That's hot. *fav0red3d*

Fel (Level 4 Ensign) at 12/22/2007 9:22:33 AM
I seriously love your work. Hall of Fame imo.

Broli (Level 1 Rookie) at 12/22/2007 8:34:19 AM
Finally this gets in. Now we just wait until the other ones can join in with this one. I still love this piece. Nice colors, very smooth, and just over all great.

Malor (Level 3 Sergeant) at 12/22/2007 7:18:36 AM
hmmm your work is slowly trickling into the gallery... three more to go :P Really glad this finally got in.

brunocompuit (Level 1 Jukyu) at 12/22/2007 6:56:31 AM
Very, very, very good!!!

Doomcreator0 (Level 6 SWAT) at 12/22/2007 5:27:50 AM

YES! THIS IS FINALLY IN.

Now we just wait until this hits "Weekly Top Pixels"

Lol it took only a day as well.


Equilibrix (Level 5 Captain) at 12/22/2007 4:33:44 AM
Reminds me of Woody Allen too :-) The colors are perfect and the style itself is just great! Hope your other pixels will get to the gallery soon!

Skull (Level 11 CEO) at 12/22/2007 3:59:03 AM
Awesome work - the colour and style of the piece is amazing.

exocet (Level 5 Captain) at 12/22/2007 3:00:53 AM
wow... that took a while, but nice to see it finally accepted.

NotSure (Level 1 Rookie) at 12/22/2007 1:51:08 AM
Excellent Work. In fact so good, and so stylised, I had to check to see if you were French (did you move from France?). I do not mind the higher colour count. If you have something to put them to, I say put those colours to work! I would normally say to use the full 128 in your palette, but there is not a pixel there that is not already perfect.

MrMister (Level 1 Depressed) at 12/22/2007 12:05:41 AM
94 colours... what a waste

greenraven (Level 5 Killer Klown) at 12/21/2007 11:05:10 PM
ZOMG! It's in at last!

sputnik (Level 3 Sergeant) at 12/21/2007 10:29:16 PM

Yay! Finally got accepted... I absolutely love your style. Fav'd.


skamocore (Level 9 Necrophiliac) at 12/21/2007 10:00:05 PM
mmm...yummy...got accepted...finally

Broli (Level 1 Rookie) at 11/30/2007 8:13:39 PM
I don't see why this isn't being accepted, it's a wonderful piece in my opinion. It looks abstract-ish to me and the colors go great together and I just love it.

mooology_22@hotmail.com (Level 1 Thug) at 11/24/2007 8:08:02 PM
i love it>the only thing i dont get is why it isn't in the gallery yet

Morgan cook (Level 4 Deputy) at 11/24/2007 1:21:59 PM
a suggestion: take away the background, make an outline

sondre (Level 1 Rookie) at 10/9/2007 8:53:28 AM
well, thanks :) it always makes me happy when people like my stuff. sorry for seeming a bit snappish. maybe I've been reading too many negative comments on other people's stuff lately.

Krakatoa (Level 1 Rookie) at 10/7/2007 10:24:14 PM
I don't mean to say you did this Photoshop, it was a compliment as to how good it looks. If I put this on a Photoshop forum and said i did it in Photoshop, they'd believe me straight up.

Actually, faving it.

sondre (Level 1 Rookie) at 10/7/2007 10:44:48 AM

it is. atleast according to the definition I was given here on pixeljoint. ("a discipline by which images are created with pixel-level intent or precision.")

I still don't understand why people are so sceptical. I mean, anyone who has some experience in pixel graphics will recognize which technique is used. I would be very astonished if someone could produce this type of dithering without hand-pixeling it.


Krakatoa (Level 1 Rookie) at 10/7/2007 3:09:41 AM
... is this even pixel art?

sondre (Level 1 Rookie) at 9/23/2007 10:16:33 AM

yes, I'm cheetah :)


exocet (Level 5 Captain) at 9/23/2007 10:05:47 AM
93 unique colours apparently.
Great pic, love that style! Really good technique too, AA and dithering are top-notch.
Wasn't your old nickname Cheetah?

Malor (Level 3 Sergeant) at 9/20/2007 12:47:11 PM
hmm he looks like Woody Allen :D... 5/5 and fav'd

ThereIsNoCure (Level 11 Godfather) at 9/19/2007 5:36:34 PM
index?                 

sondre (Level 1 Rookie) at 9/19/2007 5:48:43 AM
You're right I could have optimized it. But I'm using 3x32 colour ranges for 3 skin tones + 9 for the grey background (if you look at the palette you'll get the idea). However I'm not using all the palette entries, dunno exactly how many unique colours there are (if you want to check, be my guest)

eckered (Level 3 Stalker) at 9/18/2007 4:51:39 PM
no need to foul the air with your profanities, souly.  i agree that this could have done effectively with less colors, but what i really would like to see is some of those 105 colors being put to use to AA the eyes, and the upper left of his forehead.

Souly (Level 4 Murderer) at 9/18/2007 2:34:25 PM
105* sorry for the typo

Souly (Level 4 Murderer) at 9/18/2007 2:30:52 PM
Why the fuck would you use 108 colors on one fucking tone...
That's just dumb, no offense but that's just overkill.
You could have done the same effectivness with only 24-32 colors.

Thumtac (Level 1 Private) at 9/17/2007 7:59:54 PM

I like it 5/5


magic1111 (Level 1 Private) at 9/17/2007 12:29:53 PM
Hm... 105 colors xD?
Nice art

dogmeat (Level 7 General Manager) at 9/17/2007 9:30:16 AM
Wow, this is art, at it's best, freaking awesome. Great work.
