Pixel Art Power

AS much as i suck at creating any type of graphic assets i do envy and love the talents of some pixel artists.

Recently ive come across a veyr interesting artwork and designe of a battleship class spaceship sprite.

The amount of details is just mindblowing. And as i am in the process of creation of a space based game myself, i could only sit and cry that i cannot afford services of this genius pixel wizard.

This game makes my look like crap :(((

That's not "real" pixel art, it's just nicely painted spaceship :D

Show us your game! :D

actualy it is. i had a word with the author of that beauties. The core design he does on vectors graphics, then he adds the details by hand, pixel-by-pixel style.

and actualy i am about to post the alpha version on the forums today(of my game).

No real gameplay as the one i have is just too ulgy to look at it lol.

I just need to carve some notches and run some debuging.

If ill manage to finish it today, youll see a new topic comming from me for sure :)

I love fool's pixelated artworks: fool.deviantart.com/gallery

Some of these are amazing, does anyone know roughly how long they take to do?!?!

Over 9000 minutes in ms paint.

Pixel art... True pixel art, like the examples in this thread so far... Is a dying skill. Not many people can still make real artwork this way any more. These examples look great though. Outstanding and inspirational.
