Since I used a lot of contrast in my last piece, I wanted to try something altogether different this time. I'm not sure how long it took me, but I think it was time well spent. Any feedback is welcome. Big thanks to everyone who helped me with this in the Pixelation thread. Progress animation.

*jawdrop* I love them. Whatever they are. Everything is pretty much awesome in this pic.

shmupstick (Level 7 Sheriff) @ 9/14/2008 22:48

Absolutely gorgeous! They creatures looks kind of friendly, though. Should they?

MashPotato (Level 7 Underboss) @ 9/14/2008 20:22

Just wonderful in every way. Absolutely.

Every once in a while a piece comes along and just takes your breathe away. Congratulations.

BlazeAce (Level 6 Commander) @ 9/14/2008 12:27

This really is awesome job o____O It's so smooth that one of my friends thought it to be just some painting that's been saved to really small canvas :D

DJD (Level 4 Button Man) @ 9/14/2008 11:57

That's it. This is the pixel that is going on my wall. Stunning.

joeC (Level 1 Private) @ 9/14/2008 09:08

mikl3 (Level 7 Sheriff) @ 9/14/2008 08:14

amazing

soda (Level 10 President) @ 9/14/2008 07:55

Really fucking awesome.

neota (Level 8 Shodan) @ 9/14/2008 07:39

Huge ominous furry things on rocks? I approve of this.
Also, putting that amount of work into a picture without insisting it be ultra neat, I respect that ( I hope to acquire that skill myself.).
Water is really excellent, The most near bits of grass have some odd non-smoothness (IMO with the focus on the furry things, the hills should be mostly even more defocused than the people)

CobaltHex (Level 3 Chupacabra) @ 9/14/2008 07:36

PixelSpy (Level 5 Captain) @ 9/14/2008 07:04

I'm not sure I really have any crits for this piece! It's very well done, the tentacles are the best part for me.

TheManuz (Level 5 Killer Klown) @ 9/14/2008 06:35

RoboBOT (Level 7 Captain) @ 9/13/2008 17:47

You never fail to impress, Arachne! Well done. I find your progress animations very interesting, too. Nicely done, keep 'em coming!

Stratto (Level 5 Killer Klown) @ 9/13/2008 17:39

i thought that this was a drawing the first time i saw it.

skeddles (Level 11 Sphinx) @ 9/13/2008 16:13

Is there a word for thecoolestthingever? This is so awesome I want to fav it twice. I f*cking love all your work arachne.

Jinn (Level 11 Cthulhu (The Call of Cthulhu)) @ 9/13/2008 15:59

The most awesome piece I see in a while! [2]

BlackDragon (Level 11 Godfather) @ 9/13/2008 15:51

O.O

Very cool. The bottom of the creature kinda bugs me as well. Looks kinda blurry, but I dunno if this is the fog or not.

Solitaire (Level 1 Depressed) @ 9/13/2008 15:31

holy shit

Larwick (Level 8 Tengu) @ 9/13/2008 15:31

I love this so much. Really amazing mood, and very inspiring.
One thing i wonder about though, is that anchor-shape above the farthest persons head. There are other strange lines there, almost as if the creature has destroyed a ship or something, but it's very hard to tell - and the anchor-shape bugs me i must admit.

Mille (Level 7 Mass Murderer) @ 9/13/2008 15:30

Characters are great, best part is probably the random thing where the monster join the water, very well done.

Fruit (Level 1 Depressed) @ 9/13/2008 15:25

ohoho! Great !!

A.B. (Level 8 Cannibal) @ 9/13/2008 15:13

GOD.

OH GOD.

You're my heroin. Enjoy your monthly top : )

tomic (Level 11 Admiral) @ 9/13/2008 14:59

guess what, i saw this on pixelation (tm)

loved it from the first time i've seen it over there.. awesome composition. great how you managed the transition from the detailed hairy head to the foggy part.

THE reference piece for future pixels in terms of hair. faved. so faved.

Skull (Level 11 CEO) @ 9/13/2008 14:49

Sooo impressed with this, even in that early WIP stage - truely amazing.

mozzy (Level 1 Jukyu) @ 9/13/2008 14:48

I've been following this piece for a while, glad to see it finally finished (:

Ghostclown (Level 2 Quiet One) @ 9/13/2008 14:48

This is more awesome than I can comprehend at the moment. Wonderful job!

Blueberry_pie (Level 7 General Manager) @ 9/13/2008 14:09

Awesome. The birds are a great touch. Gives you a good sense of scale.
