It doesn't really look like pixel art, but AMAZING

A.B. (Level 6 Serial Killer) at 12/7/2007 1:11:41 PM

I'm not sure if this is pixel art or not, because it is possible to make it, but it's way to many colours, as mentioned by Blick.

This pixel is like ilkke x 10 in size and details.

Anyways, 6/6 and fav'd. :P

By the way, if you have a WIP, I'd be pleased to see it.

Polska jak zwykle najlepsza :D super pogratulowac....

rZool (Level 1 Rookie) at 11/13/2006 8:22:57 AM
... waow ... I'll write in French because I can't find the words to say how this pix is great !
C'est un truc de malade !! Sa me rapel de magnifiques écrans sur Amiga que j'en pleurais tellement qu'ils étaient beau. Rhaalala, je suis encore sous le choc ... vraiment énorme ! Dire que les autres gfx sur page web de l'auteur sont aussi reussi ... Je me demande combien de temps il a passé sur chaqu'un d'eux !

andare (Level 1 Quiet One) at 10/23/2006 8:25:32 AM
Hey on that webpage it says that the pixels came first and between 11 and 19 months later (that's Polish stickler logic) he drew the 24 bit CG version displayed there. He says he got the inspiration during a phone call and sketched it on a purple 10cmx10cm piece of paper.
Whatever!
Anyway I think pixel art should not aim for this kind of realism. This is macho pixel art and I don't need it. Pa pa

This is pixel art?

AndyOaks (Level 1 Rookie) at 8/8/2006 9:06:00 AM
Brilliant!! I love this picture. Good job!

Egor (Level 1 Rookie) at 7/21/2006 2:25:58 PM
I jak mysle, ze to Polak robil, to aż mi się łezka w oku kręci. Co jak co, ale NASI potrafią wszystko! Perfect! 10+/5 ^^

Smear and Smudge


MichaS (Level 8 Cannibal) at 7/9/2006 2:24:40 AM
Never I could believe that there is manual pixel

Larwick (Level 8 Shodan) at 6/27/2006 1:58:43 PM
God i was naive...

YureiGoddess (Level 1 Rookie) at 6/13/2006 11:44:13 AM
Wow, just, wow. This is beyond amazing.

jackal (Level 1 Rookie) at 5/11/2006 2:33:51 PM
Wow. Thats great. I love it!

Twisted (Level 1 Quiet One) at 4/9/2006 8:38:52 AM

The link is suspicious, but that's not enough proof to say he didn't do it by hand, the left eye (or the top left of the skull) is a bit off on this one, and not on the digital art one. There, now you don't have enough proof on either side so drop it.

grave (Level 8 Marshal) at 1/12/2006 12:53:40 PM

to dr.feng: are you blind, he carefuly placed them to make it look realistic instead of flat, like pixelart realy is.


Nomade (Level 3 Private Eye) at 1/4/2006 8:47:33 AM
I mean, are you kidding me? Was it made pixels by pixels? Unfortunately i wasn't there when you created it, so i won't say anything.. But, if you really did it, this is the most amazing pixel art i've ever seen in my life. I'm so impressed that i don't believe this is pixel art.

dr.feng (Level 1 Rookie) at 1/2/2006 2:02:50 AM
this is a picture with not too carefull placed pixels on it. it has not much to do with pixelart.
nice piece nonetheless.

neota (Level 7 Ichikyu) at 12/8/2005 5:38:30 AM
yuko: see Helm, Ptoing's and my comments at the below url for further explanation:
http://www.pixeljoint.com/pixelart/2867.htm#

yuko511 (Level 1 Quiet One) at 12/7/2005 7:26:54 PM
are you kidding me? you think the pixle came before the cg?

neota (Level 7 Ichikyu) at 12/4/2005 6:32:09 AM
Big brother:

It's funny that you should quote that webpage as evidence of this being non-pixelled.. Try scaling this to the size of the CG and you will see that *the CG is derived directly from -this- pic*, with some few cleanups.

yuko511 (Level 1 Quiet One) at 12/1/2005 8:46:33 AM
i think it's crap that you would post this in a pixel forum, and try to pass it off as real pixel art. for shame

Faktablad (Level 6 SWAT) at 11/30/2005 9:48:17 PM
Hmm...big brother's link looks very suspicious...

shmupstick (Level 4 Deputy) at 11/22/2005 12:59:50 PM

Well, I registred just to comment on this one. And the comment is, HOLY CRAP! Shows the Amiga-era had the best gfx artists as well as the best apps to do them in.


me7356 (Level 4 Murderer) at 10/28/2005 3:43:23 AM
I have one critique. (GASP!!!!!) The column-like flame on the left. On top of it is one of those black lines, but it doesn't fade in the flame like all the rest, and looks kinda awkward.

HMC (Level 5 Killer Klown) at 10/6/2005 2:17:07 PM
Done by hand or not, this blows my mind.

Peppermint Pig (Level 1 Rookie) at 9/16/2005 4:31:44 PM
 It's indexed work big brother. And this is not 100% by hand. Lots of good hand pixeled details mixed in with brushes and other technically 'dirty' tools. It's an awesome work, and maybe results are all that matter to some people, but it's a discredit to people who actually do hand-pixeled works when someone says that's what they are doing. Anyways, consider me very impressed! Still takes a good deal of skill to design works like this!

big brother (Level 8 Rear Admiral) at 8/14/2005 3:00:22 PM

I must say I'm a bit suspicious. I found this same composition drawn as digital art on his webpage: http://www.tomaszpacyna.net/php/show.php?id=8

Even if he did place every pixel by hand, I think the point of pixel art is not to replicate a digital art style. Not only can one come up with the same style as your "pixel art" using filters, but they save a lot of time. I think true pixel art has an effect that cannot be replicated by filters or fancy tools.


Ensellitis (Level 11 Special Agent) at 7/20/2005 1:15:53 PM
 I had to take a second look to believe this is pixel art, great job

kiwidesign (Level 1 Rookie) at 7/17/2005 1:09:12 PM

if this is real pixel art (and I think so) you are really an Artist (with the capital A)

  *passes out in awe*

Claudster (Level 1 Rookie) at 6/30/2005 1:21:56 PM
 I agree with Faktablad 100 %!! You are amazing...so amazing....

Faktablad (Level 6 SWAT) at 6/19/2005 10:16:32 PM

You have no idea how astounding this is.  This is pixel art at a godly level.  I want to die because I've seen the best that art has to offer and I can see no more.  This is just incredible.  Damn all the people that don't believe you!!!  Damn them for having no faith in the skills of an amazing artist!!  Please, next graphic you do, have a process or tutorial so that I can pretend that I have a chance of even imitating the kind of stuff that you have put up here!!  Dear God, you are good!

P.S. I guess I'll add it to my favorites.


happip (Level 6 Serial Killer) at 6/3/2005 3:17:24 PM
 O_O incredible! keep it up if u really can improve XD

uns3en at 5/11/2005 2:06:09 AM
damn i like your gfx man :D

Blick (Level 6 Commander) at 5/10/2005 6:10:34 PM
 Yeah, I'm still not sold. You have too many colors that the human eye has trouble differentiating in this, even when zoomed in. I still call a color reduced and cleaned CG on it. But I've seen the demoscene group do some crazy stuff, so it's still hard for me to tell.

Akira (Level 5 Sniper) at 5/9/2005 3:33:41 AM
jesus thats might fine. Most of these works seem sorta old... you whipping up any new stuff? I'd love to see your process!

Garage Inc. (Level 3 Sergeant) at 5/8/2005 6:34:39 PM
Your work is incredible. Everything you do looks like cg, but it is pixel art 100 percent. I love it. Added to favorites.

Ace02 (Level 1 Private) at 5/8/2005 5:09:33 PM
 Wow, thats amazing!
