Just a small image to test the behaviour Gfx2/DOS under DOSbox, since the windows version works quite weird here.

I just don't like the hair, that ruins the nice piece really

Thanks for your comments! Well, this picture is a small tryout, I was just playing with the editor to see if it drops dead by any chance. I haven't pixelled on PC for a really long time (actually I owned a dos/w98 based computer the last time I painted someting in gfx2 :) ), but after seeing some of the amazing works here - I've got a huge dose of motivation to give it another chance :)

btw: original grafx2 doesnt need dosbox i think.. runs perfectly here started directly from xp =P

Sadly, thats not the case on my machine, it won't even start. :( Actually I'm thinking about bringing home a p1 from our company's garbage-stock for a dedicated dos machine :)

Amazing modelling on the ears, brows, etc.

wow, i just love supremely shaded and well detailed things on very simple backgrounds - brings back the feeling of oldskool demoscene logos.. faved <3

plus i don't see a color of the 7 browns and 4 greys that could have been cut out without loosing detail here

I like the oldschool scene-ish shading here :)

"POOLS CLOSED?!" No honestly this is great. I love the expression on his face :D The only thing I find unnecessary is the amount of colors, you coulda easily gone with around ten, or even less I think.
