Secret santa gift at Pixelation for Toby. Thought I'd submit this as my last online picture of 2006. Haven't played any of the games, so I had to rely on what little reference I could find. Had to use a somwhat jaggy laptop mouse, so the rocky texture worked to my advatige I guess. The picture ended up on Joystiq after being on Digg, so you might have seen it there already. No matter though. Here it is again :P It's msPaint by the way. Happy New Year everybody!

dragonrc (Level 4 Deputy) @ 8/18/2007 16:43

The first time I saw it I already loved it.
Now I own both games and I love it even more...if that's even possible

Flydian (Level 1 Jukyu) @ 8/3/2007 09:15

Ngah! Epic!

Waphex (Level 1 Rookie) @ 7/30/2007 16:14

5/5 much respect

soda (Level 10 President) @ 7/18/2007 20:32

This is the best piece of pixel art on the site. Congrats on being one of the most respected pixel artists.

ice9 (Level 1 Gangster) @ 7/16/2007 07:04

I always get amazed when I see such complex artworks done in only 15 colours. Ur momochrome is really good, and overall design shines.

flobdoobly (Level 1 Rookie) @ 7/3/2007 09:36

i love this so much...and i also love the fact it was made on mspaint :) :)

BlingShyne2 (Level 2 Flatfoot) @ 7/3/2007 03:56

Well, SOTC is an incredible game, but I'd rather look at this.

This is seriously amazing, it's breathtaking. There is not a fucking word in the dictionary to describe it.

wangzi (Level 1 Rookie) @ 7/2/2007 22:59

stunning piece there bro i love the mood ahhh im melting

Katamari (Level 1 Rookie) @ 7/2/2007 16:28

I like the way all the colossals are attached to the katamari

AdamAtomic (Level 1 Rookie) @ 7/1/2007 10:40

I've had this on my hard drive ever since you first posted it on pix...unfortunately i can only rate it up to a 5, when it really deserves maybe a 6...or an 8...awesome, awesome stuff.

K.s (Level 2 Hired Gun) @ 6/29/2007 12:17

this is really awesome! although i don't really understand the concept. Great Job!

ScarredShadow (Level 4 Deputy) @ 6/24/2007 22:16

sausage (Level 5 Sniper) @ 6/1/2007 08:19

Very very amazing :).

DelphinusMach1 (Level 1 Intern) @ 5/7/2007 05:42

I saw it on pixelation... and gasped. Is snake worship a valid religion?

psycore (Level 1 Rookie) @ 4/29/2007 17:45

Guts (Level 2 Corporal) @ 4/12/2007 08:43

I love it ! Great !

Thumtac (Level 1 Private) @ 4/8/2007 15:25

Great idea

rockybolan (Level 1 Thug) @ 4/8/2007 01:43

These are my two favorite games.

This is by far the best piece I have seen here, the only thing that pushes my buttons is the way you made the prince. He has too much armor, and the sword is bit too long.

In pixel art people always make the prince's arms limbs too thick, but when you play the game you notice that his limbs are just little sticks. The boy is a lover, not a fighter.

Bogdxnuuu (Level 1 Rookie) @ 4/7/2007 15:22

The liitle guy: "u'r messing with the wrong guy big monster!"

Just LOVE it! 5/5 and fav!

grim666 (Level 1 Rookie) @ 4/5/2007 11:46

YAH

5/5

AdamPlays (Level 6 SWAT) @ 3/30/2007 21:54

As the King of All Cosmos would say, "We are moved to tears by the size of this thing."

What will he roll up next? I must know!

Stickman (Level 7 Sheriff) @ 3/30/2007 06:40

You managed to combine 2 of the most fantastic console games into a brilliant peice of work.

Nice one

RafaelHen (Level 1 Jukyu) @ 3/29/2007 16:33

Fantastic work! 5/5 and fav.

Necky (Level 1 Rookie) @ 3/26/2007 05:25

I keep coming back to this piece for another look. Sooooo nice! Probably one of my favourite piece of pixel work ever.

rajkosk8 (Level 5 Detective) @ 3/21/2007 07:01

keithburgun (Level 2 Flatfoot) @ 3/20/2007 23:41

Wow! 15 colors. Nice!

ptoing (Level 7 Cuttlefish) @ 3/8/2007 11:05

Whatwhat, I have not added this to my faves yet?!?!?

Luther (Level 1 Rookie) @ 3/8/2007 09:56

I think this is possibly the best image I've seen on here so far, fantastic work. You've made 15 colours sing and the sense of scale and solidity is amazing. Nice to get two top game references in one <4bit image too!

Jellysauce (Level 1 Rookie) @ 3/6/2007 18:56

this is so bamf. thank you

born (Level 1 Rookie) @ 3/1/2007 07:24

i've seen many many pixelarts in my life, and i'm telling u this is the best one ever.

Nightmare Maker (Level 8 Regional Boss) @ 2/27/2007 17:21

omg.. no words to express the feeling of seeing a katamari ball with colossus on it O.O

I love the SotC, and i always wanted to play Katamari Damacy, so, it is a perfect pic... 5/5 fav'd!!!!

cammwall (Level 1 Rookie) @ 2/23/2007 15:21

soooooooooooooooo amazing

iLKke (Level 9 Nidan) @ 2/20/2007 14:12

Great theme! You have a good taste in games

Also incredible pixelling style! I've never seen anything like it!
I want to have your baby! :D

shmupstick (Level 7 Sheriff) @ 2/17/2007 14:41

I thought I'd seen everything...you proved me wrong. Absolutely gorgeous!

rabidbaboy (Level 4 Shichikyu) @ 2/12/2007 01:15

My cousin lied when he said there was no god.

6/6

FearMyFox (Level 1 Rookie) @ 2/9/2007 10:56

Haha this is great. But you really should have some more collossus in the middle instead of a ball.

-Morph- (Level 1 Depressed) @ 2/5/2007 21:01

Absolutely AMAZING O_O

farinhabb (Level 1 Rookie) @ 1/30/2007 04:17

Good god...

Cloud (Level 1 Rookie) @ 1/26/2007 14:57

15 Colours? Liar, Nice work.

ctrl-alt-delete (Level 3 Corporate Drone) @ 1/16/2007 20:35

Amazing detail, and all in 15 colors. I am especially drawn to the texture in the stone.

cerealkiller54 (Level 6 Made) @ 1/16/2007 17:01
