Yes, the original image. Anyway, nice job.

What mean word "reference" here? Original image?

Tracing IS allowed guys. Yes, original art is better tho.
@Kaminari, please link to reference picture next time ;)

:D i don't know how say it right))

lol handjob   

I understand. Will be trying draw someone own sings)

Well, that's fine and dandy on your site, but this site is for original pixel art only.  You are allowed to use someone's line art as long as you give credit.  This is totally something else altogether.

I don't said what it's original pixel-art ;]

We know it's not an exact color reduction, but this is merely a photo edit I would think.  You just said you reduced it to size than colored over it.  That's not original pixel art.

:) there is original image: http://i13.tinypic.com/8g8axp0.jpg I use it at background, but not reduce colors - all draw is a handjob U can reduce to 24 colors original and then look at my work )

I was looking for a picture like that. I used paint to compare as well.

I think that perhaps this is the picture he used...  If you reduce to a third (a little smaller) it's pretty much a deadringer I think, the little lexus thing on the grill is pretty much identical besides color.  HERE

Edit: Oh yeah, A funny thing happens when you save it and open it on MSPaint

If a picture helped you, please post that picture.

surt, i don't understand what u say, sorry ^^ i'm russian

Very nice.

If you trace you my provide source.

Not reduced.. but from photo. Background is a photo then on new layer pixel draw

Looks colour reduced to me....
It's too big of a step compared to your knowledge of volumes in previosly posted work...
