Top Pixel Art - November 2010 (#1)
i still don't know what motivates people to doing like this great work, i hope i can have such like that too.
The fact that an artist of your caliber feels unable to continue with the craft due to practical reasons speaks to how bogus this world is
How? 100+ hours, that's how.
Spend 100 hours on one thing and let's see what you can do.
unbelievable - this is so atmospheric! The color palette, the background, the detail. this is art with a capital A. I bow for the master 
This piece is so awesome I had to join so I could favourite it. 
Wow, #1 spot. Deserved, too
This has so much charm.
The lighting and colors are beautiful.
Very systematic WIP! You don't have ADD, that's for sure. I tend to bounce around randomly with a scene like this.
One thing I like about your inherent style, with pixels, is the way you make everything thick and full of body, kind of bulky. For instance, your vegetation here - very bottom right corner. No flat leaves, all rounded with nice reflections and whatnot. That's an interesting gimmick.
It must've felt great to upload this here and announce it complete.
It reminds me of Brian Jacques's redwall series, the ferrets where always pirates and badguys. except this is in space.
This picture makes the Mona Lisa look like a simple one color pixel standing on an island of other pixels that are all white.
This is still considered one of my all-time favorite pieces of pixel art, and I'm sure it'll stay that way for a while. You, sir, are amazing.
you are so crazyy amazing <3 I want to practice hard so i can get as good as you are :D
Dang! I swear I remember comenting on this :P You've heard this at least 70 times before me, but oh... xD Your pretty much amazing :P
Woah,,, I need to comment again, awesome real pixel art, without hybrids fakes or something, youre an example of the good way!
Amazing work !! Great environment & atmosphere !
This is fantastic, man. A lot of time and hard work, turned into something amazing. Fave for sure.
Dude...that is...just badass...I'm instantly favoriting this.
Ahh, thats a real beauty. Everything is great, but I agree with the rocks tho. Amazing work. Reminds me from Ratchet. 5/5!

Oh, don't worry, I don't blame you. The "furry" stuff isn't up most people's alleys. It just happens to be the stuff I draw when I have nothing better in mind to draw. Still, if you're going to favorite one piece from my gallery, I'd rather it be this one :p
Heh, well for this piece I really only have praise (do agree with Hatch about the rocks.), this is just awesome. The colours, the rock textures, the atmosphere, it's just really great. I think I'm just not a big fan of wolves and human like wolves. I blame DeviantArt, and you're stuff's sometimes a bit too cartoony for me or something. But it's just a matter of opinion really. I do find you a great artist, though. (That probably still sounds rather vague, dunno how to word it properly.)
And thanks man. I gotta say this is probably my personal favorite from you.
Wow! Stunning. The pixelling is so smooth, and I adore the level of detail. The palette really sets the mood, and the OSL is done amazingly.
Kaiseto, you win at life.
@Opcaus
Well, that's some mixed praise right there if I ever saw any, but I'll surely take it :p I tend to like your style... (The Deep being a personal favorite)
I think the rocks being clustered at the horizon line make the sky look much nearer to him than it should and makes it look a bit like a painted backdrop, but it's a minor complaint and it may just be me. Incredibly beautiful work otherwise :)
I have to admit that your style usually does little for me, but this is just slick.
Okay, sorry I deleted my comment. I just don't like the ferret so much. His body bends sorta strange way and what's behind his legs I can't read, or it's the boots that make it. I suck at critism so don't mind me. I think the piece would look better without the ferret in it. :)
Fantastic!
