Thanks!

A music video would be really cool to do, but it's way too much work. Plus there's nowhere to even post it on the internet without it being taken down.

Thanks! Yeah, 80% of the time on this was the cleanup and AA, but I like how the purple and brown goes together.

I'm in!

I especially like:

• Something that's out of the ordinary. Whether it's subject matter, colors, texturing, style, or a complete disregard for pixel art common sense, I don't care how stupid or ugly it looks, surprise me (if you dare!).

Since that's a bit general, some other things I like:

• Trees, especially really big, gnarled, old-looking ones, and forests.
• Frank Zappa.
• Expressionism (Kokoschka, Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, Alice Neel...), and other early 20th century movements (post impressionism, early abstract stuff).
• Cathedrals.
• A portrait of me, but you do it without knowing what I look like.
• Fantasy and sci-fi are ok too.
• Assorted list of media: Rain World, Minecraft, Cardiacs, Sergei Rachmaninoff, MF DOOM, Akira Kurosawa, Fritz Lang (Die Nibelungen!), Salman Rushdie, The Karamazov Brothers.
• Islamic patterning and architecture.

Dislikes:

• Would rather have something original and not a master painting study.

You don't have to do all of these at once of course, just pick what you feel like, and don't worry too much about the style, I like pretty much everything as long as it's made of pixels.

Love the fly creature design! It's pretty funny how he's completely oblivious to what's going on though

Thanks! @rogue_frog @hby. Having a clear pattern like this is nice for messing around with terrain shapes

Thanks! Maybe you could have snuck some giant gestures in your entry 

Wouldn't be pixelween if I didn't try my best to draw everything except what the challenge says 

Thanks! I feel like in a format like this the first week will usually be the one that turns out the best.

Really nice interpretation of the theme!

Thanks! Last year was a lot of fun but I'm grateful for the free time

Thanks! Usuallly I post stuff about as soon as I finish it but it's nice to try and string stuff together under a common theme sometimes.

(Although I guess this does sort of look like just a random assortment of drawings this time )

Oh yeah definitely  (still haven't played it though)

I really wish picking someone else's pic as an avatar still worked right now 

Thanks! I think it turned out a bit like that Ricardo Cavallo you sent me a while back.

Thanks! That's Argus, 70s prog rock. Btw, you reminded me I wanted to do Frances the Mute too haha.

Nice! I like the blue tones on the screen. Though personally I prefer the cover with the little monkey looking at the TV

Thanks! It's the fun of mixing colored light sources.

Wow, that monastery looks really nice, did you pick it because you had been there? I had no idea anyone had tried to make an april fools drawing in my style haha, sorry it didn't work out, though I always thought the only stuff I made that might be recognizable was some of the more expressionist drawings.

Wow, thank you! 

Another Zappa to add to my collection  (and also I can't believe how fast you did this).

Thanks! I had to just pick a spot to start, and do every part in one go, so pretty much everything is how I left it the first time through.

The pattern on the shirt looks cool with the ZX colors!

I'm glad you like it! You're probably right about the textures, for time's sake I had to try things out as I went so there's a lot of different stuff jumbled together.

Thanks! @Umbohr @AlexL

I need it to protect me from the freezing winter winds, obviously >:(
