Top Pixel Art - July 2010 (#1)
When I saw the thumbnail, I was so happy, because I knew right away it would be a piece from Fool.
It is great to have you back.
This artwork is fantastic. It is so fantastic it is hard to find the right words to describe something of this proportion.
You truly are the king of pixel art.
What's great about this is looking back at the first pieces you submitted and seeing how much you've improved, not necessarily with aesthetics, but with technique. I don't know any other artist who would have both the talent and patience to make this.
Back with such ubelieveble masterpiece... You're amazing, Fool..
Knew who this amazing piece was sprited by almost immediatley. Excelent pixel art fool!
HOLY MOTHER!!!! I'm giggling like a little girl, this is BEAUTIFUL!
Welcome back sir...
Absolutely stunning work!! It's stuff like this that illustrates why you are the premier pixel artist. If only you had your own tutorials to show the rest of us how it's done.
Like someone else said, the clouds are my favorite (although the monks are fantastic as well). They are so accomplished looking that at first I thought it was a scanned photo, only to realize that pixeljoint doesn't allow photography, and upon zooming in, one can see the excellent hand-pixelled work.
I'm not well known on PJ by any measure, (Nor am I a brilliant pixeler,) but honestly, this story brang a tear to my eye and this astounding peice brang it to life perfectly. The sky is awesome and the whole peice has a great nostalgic tone. My mind is officially blown. I one day aspire to be half as creative and talented as you, fool, welcome back.
well the story is Osho's, but it was an excellent story to select nonetheless! Daring size for pixelart, great colors and textuers as always.
Reminds me of a line from The Life of Brian- "Life's a laugh, and death's the joke- it's true!"
This is really a great piece Fool, but I have to say I really enjoyed that story, possibly more than the piece itself.
Amazing work as always. Glad to see you getting back into pixeling again. :)
You're MAD! Well, a Fool at least! Quite brave making such huge pixelart, loving the rock texture.
Gob-smackingly awesome, i want to be like you someday.8D!!!
Outstanding amount of details ! I'm severely impressed.
Oh My God.. The texture on those monks is just.. woah.... 100/5!
Thanks, man. That is a background, there will be foreground objects (not just yet) and by scenario it would change in palette - from teraccotish monocromatic to goldish + more colors for skyies etc. main reason I made it muted and greish. As for the perspective - image wont be seen as whole, only what fit into 640x480 window, I tried to play so it not change dramatically from screen to screen to keep relative sprite perspective... Should mention all that in description, but story took too long.=)
Thanks for the input again, it is all valid.=)
We recognize at once that it is one of your creations. That is beautiful, with the story you tell !
Thank you guys for the warm welcome (back) although I don't think i'll be too active drawing wise.
Squirrelsquid, must be miss it, I don't remember seeing it, sorry man.
TheInquisitor, clouds is a part I actually going to redo.=)
Is... this piece real? The king of pixels must've been back.
Yep. That's your work as I've come to expect it. I have to say my favourite bit is the clouds and not the monks. The clouds are brilliant.
haha, this is incredible. it's going to also be interesting watching a piece submitted the day before the last day of the month sky-rocket to #1 ;)
Glad to see you around here again, awesome work as always.
Slap yo Momma, kinda WOW here!!!
This piece made me so happy! I'm glad you will continue to work, and post them for all to see mate. You truly inspire my friend. What better gift to give back than that! You are an amazing artist man! Keep your gift giving!
Amazing! That is the most insane peice of pixel art I have ever seen. Words can't discribe how sick this is. My favorite part is the clouds they are so amazingly well pixeled.
Glad you'r back! I was a bit worried, since I got no reply to that email I sent you some time ago...
on the piece: this have to be the most beautiful pixelclouds I've ever seen.
Aw, Foool. We missed you.
Incredible story and an ever better piece.
Its great to see you again. Lets hope that you stay, Pixeljoint isn't the same without you and your mindblowing art!
Probably the most incredible and outstanding piece of pixel art I've ever seen (on PJ for sure).
YAYYY Your Back 
With A New Mind blowing Piece I Soo Love this
Brilliant texture work. I like the dither on those clouds too.
{ I must say... This is incridible...!
Pure pixelated madness! Why do you raise the standard again and again? Lots of new potential pixel artists just have lost any hope and gave up pixelling, because they have no chance to make anything like this. It's cruel, comrade! ))
To be serious - that's just stunning. You're Zeus of the pixels. I need to see more.
