Very expressive indeed.

wonderful silhouette!

Using the black is wonderful.

This is just some seriously intense style. Amazing.

I love the style and idea, great pixelling.

I love how well the foreground contrasts against the background. Great work. 

Now that I read the story it became very meaningful. Guess Tomic must be happy with it.

really like how you mix the high contrast with the colors (which are varied yet simple). inspiring style.

I LiKke the idea :P

That black is so perfectly HEAVY.

/me throws iLKke a cookie

The girl's a really nice touch. Great atmoshpere.

 My favorite parts are the grassy detail on the ground near the horse, the castle in the background, and especially the clouds :) for some reason they seem to make the piece for me.  Excellent work all around, impressive stuff.

Awesome AA... Smoooooth!

This looked like the weekly challenge entry! very well done iLKke!

 AA master

 Love the boat. it reminds me of the airship from owlboy in a way. Maybe the colours. The car in the back is especially nice.

I like the face on the bottom right, the remainder makes me hopelessly crap

Love the shading on that flag. Epic work. Glad you uploaded it =)
