Do you think i use 15 colors? Seemed to me that the need to specify the all used colors. Is not it?

i dont see the use of 28 colors / scanline really necessary here

Yes, the wings are similar a bit as in AeroSmith Although in truth, the idea was taken from another place. I am glad to see that the work is enjoyed.

p.s. Regarding scanlines, do not worry, this is only an element of decoration. Interlace is available on virtually any 8-bit computer.

C=64 Live in Aerosmith style :) Good scene-like job in my opinion .

One thing. Scanline effect adds colours? U sure that it's not interlace effect ?

I'm not an expert in C64 harware tricks but... interlace method is possible to reach for C=64 (for Atari XL/XE is possible).

(edited: OK, when I wrote this post U answered Dr D - scanline effect it's just FLI so now I understand)

Yes you are right, Commodore palette consists of 16 colors, but is not forbidden to use the FLI and other graphics mode. In this case, 28 colors turned out for the addition of TV-effect scanline. This is not original screenshot of commodore c64, simple stilization.

FLI, or Flexible Line Interpretation, can be used to increase the number of unique colors which can appear in an 8x8 or 8x4 block on the screen. This mode is occasionally extended further with sprites and/or interlacing two bitmaps together (as in SHIFLI or UIFLI). These modes usually cause the left-most 24 pixels of the display to become unusable.

But the C64 palette only has 16 colors?

Nvm, he changed it to 28.

Oh, you right I hurried and did not notice that the colors have changed wrong, now everything should be correct. sorry!

He means brought it up to 54 colors, the original amount being half that.

Cool piece, nice use of the palette, and I think the scanlines look good.

How did the scanline add up to 54 colors? You7 should do it manually, then it'll me twice the colors at most.
