This pixel is based on the Valentine Sâhib 1842 animation. This character was inspired by the british comic artist Jamie Hewlett (Tank girl, Gorillaz's characters, ...) in a picture called Death commitioned by Vertigo. See ref : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jamie_Hewlett I redraw it using large shapes style and then dithering shades and light effects. It's done with a palette of 12 colors. [08/11/2006] Following suggestions from jalonso and eghost, I added a stained glass in the background, some transversal lights coming from two sources and candle light effect on the back of her neck.

This piece has a haunting quality about it. Nice design. You love animating hair don't you. Heh.

That's a compliment for sure, Stained Glass. I'm not sure this piece is to be compared to Helm's works as I'm not using the same restrictions. I wish I was as talented as Helm !

Awesome style for this piece, reminds me of helm's work. (which is a real compliment) 5 stars.
