it's great to see such dedication and morality from such a recognizable artist such as yourself. Hmm... perhaps your English isn't good enough to have principles or dedication. Perhaps your English isn't good enough to be an honest person. I'm gonna go ahead and guess that your English is not good enough to you figure out that you do not belong here.

Really Micha, just stop this crap. You are fooling yourself more than anyone else. What do you want to achieve with these traces and reductions? Do you want people to think you are an awesome pixelartist? How about actually sitting down and doing your own stuff?

What sucks even more is it was such a cool and stylish pixel. Can this guy just please be banned or greatly warned or something so we don't get our hopes up only to have them dashed by such egotism? Gah I feel dirty for having loved this...

though what you did is an obvious example of lame-ass behavior, if you feel incapable of expressing what you'd want to add in English, write in Polish.  I'll translate it tomorrow.

"tomic, it depended on lack of time, not from reference... I was begin from oekaki, as usual. I'm sorry guys for my english..."

So Lame... =(                         

@MichaS: you have 24 hours to respond for the issue of NOT LINKING AN OBVIOUS REFERENCE IN YOUR DETAILED DESCRIPTION before I send back for revision. If a valid response isn't made, I'm sending it back.

*also, I believe this isn't the first time we've seen this from you...I really hope there's a reasonable explanation, rather than a color redux, resize, and pixeling over it. If so, then LAME.

XAXA! WEE! FOR GENUINE PIXELART!

*Got my vote*
Looks amazing

Podstawa była trasowana,nie ma chuja:/

There's no reference - just retouched tracing/reduction.

I agree with jamon

I dont like retouched art even on the demo scene...

Perfect for demo scene!

i quite like the stylish background but the masked man looks referenced, if not retouched/cleaned even - one proof: his right (from our view left) eye, which doesn't fit the overall look of the pic. seems you did not manage it to clean up everything in time.

any chance you could point us to that reference?

nice! sorta banksy-esque.  maybe thats just becasue there's a gasmask and some graff stuff in the background.

oj Misiu byo zrobić coś w tej czarnej dziurze. Ale i tak mi się podoba :)

Can you show us your reference image (assuming you used one)?

Oh wow, this is top notch work here. I wouldn't be surprised if this won the challenge. You will definitely have my vote.
