Every time I see it, it becomes more unbelievable

Bcadren (Level 1 Depressed) @ 6/7/2013 11:28

Where will you be when inspiration strikes? (Seriously this gave me an epic idea; thanks).

Occillo (Level 1 Jukyu) @ 4/18/2013 07:59

Brilliant work! Love the colours.

Yielmo (Level 4 Lieutenant) @ 3/15/2013 20:41

Anatomy is weird on left leg. Amazing use of colors tho

showtime (Level 6 Made) @ 2/28/2013 20:56

Somebody on Reddit made some glitchy art using this piece

Sir_Veillance (Level 3 Private Eye) @ 2/19/2013 20:32

4 colors... And this piece is so stunning!

AtskaHeart (Level 8 Regional Boss) @ 1/23/2013 10:58

This is absolutely gorgeous, a stunning piece that shows what 3 colors can do if they are placed in the proper way.

Different55 (Level 2 Dealer) @ 1/12/2013 08:16

Absolutely amazing. The world needs more pixel artists like you.

co_Opernicus (Level 2 Quiet One) @ 1/7/2013 13:13

skittle (Level 9 Nidan) @ 8/9/2012 14:21

@PJK Zoom in and you'll see that purple is just red and blue close together

OneFineMess (Level 1 Seaman) @ 7/13/2012 13:14

ultimaodin (Level 3 Corporate Drone) @ 2/10/2012 06:59

When drunk you can actuallu decern all 4 colours from one another. Odd. Still awesome though.

SpeedXaaa (Level 1 Jukyu) @ 7/17/2011 20:38

Like how it's been already said: it's truly just amazing how just those 3 (plus black) colors dithered together like so can create the illusion of such a spectrum. I love this. :3
