Damn Jal stole my idea ):< I'm wondering how to take a more original approach to the standard side view in front of a saloon with two gruffy McGunslingers going at it. If anything this competition will be interesting to see different styles on very similar pixels. |

My WIP. Still have to add buildings and all kinds of stuff into the background. If you recognize the character depicted in the foreground you are officially cool.  |

The original has a way better background character. If you go with the lit cigar then secondary lighting from it is essential. Otherwise looking good.

| cool idea mistake fur. It'd be interesting to see a more modern background (robot cacti ftw) behind them, leading towards the idea that some things never change! :D |

 13 Colours I don't think it is ready enough as it clearly needs tons of refinement. |

Update:
 12 colours so far. still need to add shadow to the characters, and maybe somethings in the background.

I think it would help to make the background a more orange color and take out the dithered area around the sun--it seems really incongruous with the rest of the piece. The outlines on the menus seem kind of out of place, too; it would look better for them to be the same color as the inside of the menu or a darker color than the sky so they show up better. ------------- http://pixelmonkey.ensellitis.com">
