Here's the current version of my challenge entry (10th revision so far).
 I'm attempting to pay tribute to Blick with this piece, not too loosely based on his 3 piece series:
Redd http://www.pixeljoint.com/pixelart/2341.htm - http://www.pixeljoint.com/pixelart/2341.htm ,
Orinj http://www.pixeljoint.com/pixelart/2342.htm - http://www.pixeljoint.com/pixelart/2342.htm , and
Bloo http://www.pixeljoint.com/pixelart/2340.htm - http://www.pixeljoint.com/pixelart/2340.htm
As well as the trademark "shouty-triangles" (don't know what else to call them, sorry).
This is my first try at AA so it's a little rough. I've looked at a couple of tutorials on AA but it seems to be as much intuition as skill so I guess it's a case of practice makes perfect.
All credit, respect, tribute, and apologies to Blick. ------------- "The Earth starts to rumble, world powers fall. A 'warring for the heavens, a peaceful man stands tall...." - Mustaine. ©1992 Screen Gems/EMI |

the best way to realize if AA is correct is to put some distance between you and the 1x image, and then look for rought edges. ------------- I ate leel's babies |

Well, I've done what I could with this one. I have to take my wife to the hospital tomorrow and the weekend is pretty full as well so I've submitted this, as is, to the gallery to endure the C&C every challenge piece gets.
Anyway, despite the piece being submitted there's ample room for improvement so feel free to continue comments here; any changes I make based on them will go here. Thanks, ------------- "The Earth starts to rumble, world powers fall. A 'warring for the heavens, a peaceful man stands tall...." - Mustaine. ©1992 Screen Gems/EMI |
