I like the sense of depth. it kind of looks 3d. well done!
This is absolutely beautiful. Teach me the way of the cluster, oh wise one!
Means a lot coming from you, thanks a ton, man! :)
Hot damn, this is completely amazing, from the palette to the fine detailing.
@BlueMagma
Thanks a lot, I hope it looks angry enough! :)
Hello Mandrill :) I just wanted to know, do you have any video or blog where you explaine your graphic process? I wish I could have that colour knowledge, or that light perception in Pixel Art.
Thank you very much for taking the time to explain that colour issue, man!
As soon as I'm be back from my holiday trip, I'll look into that and work on an alternative. I even checked it on a different monitor the other day and noticed some inconsistencies myself.
You've perfectly captured the look of someone who hasn't been to a dentist despite obvious problems with their teeth!
You never cease to amaze me with your crazy pixels of even crazier creatures!
Only thing that bothers me (a tiny, tiny bit) is what CELS mentioned about the second darkest color (althrough I've a pretty bad uncallibrated monitor) which creates a bit of a flimmer towards the third darkest color but even then it only really bothers me (a tiny, tiny bit) at the forehead. The "complimentary" contrast is at least on my monitor too big there. On the other places it's not bothering me because they only touch the third darkest color on one "side", if that makes sense.
@ Dr D.
Super, thanks a lot! Makes me feel proud hearing that. :)
@ AlcopopStar
Cheers! :)
I'm loving your pixels, amazing clusters!
@ Finlal
Yep, he is, thanks for the Link. ;)
Your work is sublime as well, aspiring pixel animators can learn much from it.
Always love your portraits, and this is the best one yet! 6/6
If you ever gonna animate, be sure to read Stickman's interview.
He's pro in it.
@ Zizka
Some Sprites and a few backrounds to give them a proper home. ;) Animation is your domain though, I can learn a lot from your stuff.
Thanks!
Awesome! Try complete scenes maybe or some animations!
You can do it! You're awesome!
@ RGBfumes
Thanks, great you like it!
Your ISO pieces are fantastic btw. ;)
@ Zizka
Thanks a lot!
You are totally right about that. I've been working on some other pieces that are way out of my comfort zone though. They still need many hours of polishing and tweaking until I'm satisfied enough to post them. :)
@Crafty
Thank you very much, Crafty! I have been waiting eagerly for you to post some pixels again. :)
As much as I like your art (I really do) I'm looking forward to you exploring new things with your talent. I feel like this type of portrait is becoming more of a comfort zone.
This being said, it looks wonderful, just hope that you'll explore new stuff in the near future!
@ showtime
I hope you are ok! Thanks a bunch, glad you like the piece. :)
@ WangieClown
What an poetic and wonderfully worded comment. I'm quite surprised to find something fantastic as this concerning one of my pieces.
Thank you very, very much. :)
@ Elk
That means a lot coming from you, vielen Dank! :)

Look, I'm not liable for Games Workshop's firm policy.
@ 91grinds
A master? Haha, not at all, but I try my best.
Thanks a lot.
Glad to hear the tut has been helpful to you. :)
"Whatcha lookin' at, motherfucker? I'm a freakin' art of nature. Say it."
You personificated the wildness and rage which defines the young precambrian Earth into the tree - a symbol of wisdom, calmness & old age. Love the idea. I had to use the deepest resources of my mind to overcome my guilty-pleasure-like desire: put this as an avatar on every forum I visit.
You are a master
(I read your tutorial several times, was very helpful :)
@ParkerBaby: I think it's more than the dithering technique, although it's definitely part of it. His Fallout power armour avatar looks like a classic Mandrill piece to me, with minimal dithering.
@Mandrill: Will check out Paul Bonner :)
@ Finlal
Yep, I've studied his anatomy like a zealous nutter. :)
I see what you mean, I always try to get as many 45° lines as possible and AA the bigger clusters in order to make the mid-tones look smooth. Colours are really contrasty.
@ hostile
Great compliment, thank you very much. :)
I've just been looking through your Gallery, your stuff is pretty cool!
Cool you like it. Thanks a bunch!
