This is an attempt to colour a lineart by 'Rifts' that he posted on the Pixel joint forums, but in a speccy style, I condensed the image to 256x192 (ZX Spectrum screen resolution) and then coloured it in a ZX spectrum fashion, with no more than two colours per 8x8 square a total of eight colours plus brights to equal 15 (no such thing as a bright black!!), bright and dark colours also cannot ocupy the same square!

Trust me it is some restriction to work with!!

 I invented the mock game title and software house name.....Just for something to do!!

 Don't expect a lot of props for how difficult it is to make proper speccy pics in this forum :P most people don't even know the machine ( with the notable exception of gas of course ). Mad respect for handling the crazy restrictions relatively well, and more importantly for me, for carrying a specific theme great. the fake software house logo helps and everything. Excellent. Favourites.

 Being a very big fan of ZX-Spectrum art I just can't pass by :) I think you've made a really good job. It looks very oldkul and remind of a sweet times. But the way you were using only black for shading is a bit boring. Yellow to red to black and cyan to blue to black would rock ;)

Love the old school flavor. Very Leisure Suit Larry.

Wow.  I love it.  The lineart was quite a challenge, and you met it very well.  Favorites.
