"---but the levy (or is it "levee"?) was dry. . .", or "I was a lonely teenage broncin' buck (no, I'm not a horse), with a pink carnation and a pickup truck~" yee-haw! Commodore 64 MultiColor picture. Thanks to Ptoing for his great help (and standing my nagging), and to the wonderful folks of WayOfThePixel and PA.

nice
I like the gray right part of the face - add interesting lightening/shining effect.

ah, you bastard! :D

I like the background. The guy's ugly, though ;DD

That's very nice! Better than the first.
There are a lot of browns in the pic, but I guess it was hard to make the face stand out more from the bg with c64 colors. Also the trees look a bit stretched horizontally.

whoah, haven't noticed this. heheh, so it looks I draw masculine women and feminine guys. you can search for the reference, there are few photos of mine online! :D `65 Impala? Wow, you don't even know what I could give to drive this baby!! ;) peace!

"I still believe you look a bit like a girl"buahahahahahah xD

Cool my brothers got a chevy, it's a 65 impala. I think you should expand the shadow under his jaw, that little bit seems off.

Hapiel (Level 11 Bonsai) @ 2/8/2009 12:18

Viewing the WIP was quite nice :). I still believe you look a bit like a girl, but further more this is a very nice c64 drawing!

Skurwy87 (Level 6 Made) @ 2/8/2009 04:53

Thank you! Heheh, no, I'm some 80 pounds lighter than him! ;) You know, the whole time I was working on the brighter version, but I think this one matches better what is seen on the real thing. Check this (http://noname.c64.org/csdb/release/download.php?id=95023) if you want it in the executable format.

I prefer other versions of the palette but I like what you've done here. Do you really look like Dwayne Johnson?

5/5

Thanks! `69 Chevy Pickup, I guess (http://www.jalopyjunction.com/sitebuilder/images/Pic_0020_A-886x664.jpg).
