I really liked the cover of this album, so I thought I'd have a go at pixelling it. I've been working on this for the last 2 weeks...I think I'm ready to call it finished.

Edit: The original pixel is 50x50. I added a border afterwards to make it more readable on some backgrounds.

Giant fan of Roper's work here.  It's very faithful considering the size.  Great work!

Yep, I know :( I tried to remain faithful to the original, but I guess there's only so much you can show with 2500 pixels... I had to remove most of the bees, since a lot of them would've just looked like random stray pixels at that size. Thanks for the comment, though 8D

It's cool, I like it! After looking at the original though, I notice a lot of the details are missed because your canvas is small, which is a pity because it's a great picture!

Thanks. About the canvas size, I chose to make it 50x50, as it would be more of a challenge to myself recreating it at a smaller size :D

Wow, nice job working with such a small canvas! Why not make it bigger, though?
