I think it is time to loose iso virginity.=) Inspired in some way by Jal's piece. Killed over 40 hours, a little rushed on the end - it appeared to be pretty annoying, just as i suspected.=) Here's WIP ( careful, 3 mb, gif=)

This is extremley amazing! But I don't think it makes sense that the castle goes all the way to the water. You would have to build it on the rocks wouldnt you? Or maybe I don't know enough of castle building

. Anyway it doesnt change the fact that this is indeed a masterpiece.

MashPotato (Level 7 Underboss) @ 1/28/2008 14:48

Incredibly beautiful--that's all there is to it! Well, that and gorgeous, inspiring... you get the idea

One small thing: perhaps make the back line of the water wavy instead of completely straight, to match the other sides

dumbo (Level 4 Mercenary) @ 1/28/2008 14:39

WOW!!!

again...

GeorgiePie (Level 1 Rookie) @ 1/28/2008 14:25

Maybe the best pixel work I've ever seen... amazing!

Slemsvamp (Level 6 Serial Killer) @ 1/28/2008 14:21

I wish I could spend this much time to one peice!

HoofFoot (Level 8 Regional Boss) @ 1/28/2008 14:16

Instant fave. Now excuse me while I go scrape my brains off the ceiling.

Darth Mandarb (Level 10 Operative) @ 1/28/2008 14:13

Love it!

The tight-rope walker is a nice touch :)

And yes, I too noticed the "dock" appears to be a dragon's head (matching the dragons on the wall perhaps? and the WIP appeared to have claws reaching down into the water as well)

Brilliant work!

Kobun (Level 1 Rookie) @ 1/28/2008 14:11

DAMMIT FOOL!!! I think everyone was wondering why you only had 2 pieces in the top 10 last month and you obviously busy working on thi... is that a stray pixel on the left??? !!!!

I laugh at your imperfections! HAHAHAHA *cries

Stickman (Level 7 Sheriff) @ 1/28/2008 14:06

pretty average stuff =D

soda (Level 10 President) @ 1/28/2008 13:48

This is incredible. Kudos. I really like the guy fishing in the front.

shmupstick (Level 7 Sheriff) @ 1/28/2008 13:46

Unbelievable!
Been looking for something to crit, and I finally found a 'ray coming out at the back of the ship', but who cares? Maybe it would look just like that in real life...
Standing ovations!

Max Marshall (Level 1 Gangster) @ 1/28/2008 13:41

Wow! This is absolutely amazing!

Doomcreator0 (Level 5 Assistant Manager) @ 1/28/2008 13:41

JESUS CHRIST MAN. YOUR BEST WORK EVER>

I'm sorry, but I was just stunned by this.

jalonso (Level 11 Godfather) @ 1/28/2008 13:33

iLKke (Level 9 Nidan) @ 1/28/2008 13:18

Wonderful. I especially like the frothy waves and sunken ships! Also incredible work on those tiny men :D

P.S. Is the town built on a huge dragon skeleton? I think I can see a skull in those rocks...

MichaS (Level 1 Depressed) @ 1/28/2008 13:06

I don't hane any words for You...

A.B. (Level 8 Cannibal) @ 1/28/2008 12:58

Everything you do is just amazing.

Amorphous (Level 3 Sergeant) @ 1/28/2008 12:17

This is very wonderful!

I'm definitely faving this one; I really like how you did the water.

Hapiel (Level 11 Bonsai) @ 1/28/2008 12:13

This is just 40 hours of work?
Amazing!!

GTK (Level 5 Killer Klown) @ 1/28/2008 12:00

Waw ! This very awesome

thesalus (Level 5 Detective) @ 1/28/2008 11:59

What a tasty dragonshead. Beautiful as always.

Though the conical tower roofs look a bit flat/not circular.

greenraven (Level 2 Hired Gun) @ 1/28/2008 11:58

You're killing our self esteem here.

I think everyone here agrees.... this piece rocks....

Vertigo-Zero (Level 9 Necrophiliac) @ 1/28/2008 11:54

Dude, you just had to beat Jal didnt you? XD next up dolling because he also did his first one? XD

PixelSpy (Level 5 Captain) @ 1/28/2008 11:53

Wow! Just Wow!!

Varock Shade (Level 7 Underboss) @ 1/28/2008 11:50

*Fool, are you trying to fool me!? This cant't be a PA!* - Is there something you can't do with these coloured dots?

This looks amazing! the amount of detail is almost more than in the miniatures of the cities that they used for Lord of the rings... And the tower somehow reminds me a bit of something ive seen in the book 'The Edge cronicles' by Vox Verlix...
