@TomicHaha, that's the exact reason why i'll never post it here!
I'd rather meet my dentist than wasting my precious time with some pixeln00bs! ;)
Seriously, that pic have gone through way maaaaany edits through the years and I think it's just 99.9% pure pixelling in the end! ;P
...and since this year's TUM theme is "space", I could change the palette, flip it and submit it again!!! :D
tomic (Level 11 CEO) at 12/11/2008 9:39:09 AM
hehe, thanx. you've been that planet/asteroid-piece, right? well deserved 2nd place that was 
.
what about submitting it here and starting another demoscene/indexpainting debate in the queue? =)
skan (Level 1 Depressed) at 12/11/2008 7:30:23 AM
Well deserved 1st place! :)(I'm entitled to say that, since I came 2nd at the very same compo, the very same party, the very same year!!! ;P)
andy_blah (Level 1 Intern) at 9/7/2008 2:11:11 AM
Matches the cover of the game perfectly, and looks astonishing!
Gaby05 (Level 1 Rookie) at 9/3/2008 5:26:59 AM
Wow man! you have reached a level of detail I can only dream of! 
RevoltOfAges (Level 1 Depressed) at 12/22/2007 9:15:33 PM
Referencing the box art of the original game I see...
zlajonja (Level 1 Depressed) at 12/2/2007 7:49:33 AM
One of the best adventures ever! :) and you put it right to the point. I admire your work, it's so close to perfection. ;) :P (nothing is perfect)"If a woodchuck could chuck wood, how much wood would a woodchuck chuck...?" :D
Skaka (Level 1 Rookie) at 11/12/2007 1:43:53 AM
Damn...nice...I used to play Monkey Island when I was like 7.
Broli (Level 3 Private Eye) at 10/5/2007 3:39:25 PM
Truly amazing. Great choice of colors, they complement each other so well. This is one of the best pieces of pixel art that I've seen. 
Mrmo Tarius (Level 3 Enforcer) at 9/23/2007 6:27:37 AM

konix (Level 1 Rookie) at 9/16/2007 7:10:19 AM
Everything about this is impressive. The lineart, the colors, it's all very well done.
dakael (Level 5 Killer Klown) at 9/3/2007 12:19:29 PM
Fantastic palette! Really , really great one. I think it's best picture you made until now...
elend (Level 1 Rookie) at 5/20/2007 4:03:00 AM
Quite a great pic. I'd like to print that out and put it in a frame on my wall. Very well done. The steps-anim is even more impressive. pain (Level 9 Nidan) at 5/4/2007 1:11:58 PM
monkey enterance is great, but pic seems to be a little unfinished ... Necky (Level 1 Rookie) at 3/26/2007 8:40:34 AM
Wow! This is really nice, I especially love the monkey enterance in the corner. :)
Biffo (Level 1 Rookie) at 3/21/2007 10:54:21 AM
Holy flippen c**p. This is mighty good! A mighty Good Pixel Piece. Love it! Gold well earned Matey.
Forge (Level 1 Rookie) at 3/20/2007 10:32:02 AM
This is one of those "No way that is pixel" moments! Not much more to say other than this is a beautifule piece and you are a very talented individual.
Congrats on the gold trophy.
ceddo (Level 6 Serial Killer) at 3/16/2007 11:10:28 AM
Brings back great monkey island memories! *snif*
khorin (Level 1 Gangster) at 2/27/2007 7:15:59 AM
The end of February hasn't come yet.Well, looking at your piece again, I noticed that the way you pixelled it makes it look like you painted it by hand. Very awesome. :-)
horcy (Level 2 Corporal) at 2/27/2007 3:59:56 AM
This art peace brings tears to my eyes of nostalgia. Nice homage tomic!! 
sausage (Level 5 Sniper) at 2/25/2007 12:57:05 AM
Ive never played the game, but this makes me want to play it =D [6/6]
nvision (Level 4 Team Leader) at 2/23/2007 7:02:59 AM
Anything featuring Lemonhead gets my approval! Magnifique!
schrumpfkopf (Level 1 Depressed) at 2/23/2007 5:24:26 AM
i agree with everybody - insane amount of brilliant work :)
Varock Shade (Level 7 Underboss) at 2/23/2007 1:57:08 AM
i agree... Its... 
colours linework and idea are just perfect! 
im getting jealous, i want your talent 
jalonso (Level 11 Godfather) at 2/22/2007 8:25:42 PM
Really a beautiful piece, so well pixelled, the memoreis, blah, blah,blah.I'm most fascinated by your choice of icon for this piece. I have come to notice that you are one of the few around here who gives thought to these matters. Perhaps it was an area that was the most challenging to pixel or is your fave in game area. I find several other areas that would have sold this far more effectively. Its nitpicking and slightly retarded but I wonder...
Likandro (Level 2 Flatfoot) at 2/22/2007 12:15:38 PM
Really really GOOD... It´s one of best works i have ever seen.
Marina (Level 4 Deputy) at 2/22/2007 10:18:46 AM
Wooow i love it!!!I have memories of this fantastic game. Good work
Dennis (Level 8 Rear Admiral) at 2/22/2007 9:03:52 AM
Yes! If LucasArts ever does another re-release of MI they should put this masterpiece in there as the opening screen. Just awesome.
FlyGuy (Level 7 Underboss) at 2/22/2007 6:48:14 AM
This is outstanding. The colors you chose makes the picture have a magic glow in some areas. This is so awsome 6/6. This will definately be top 20 on PJ.
exocet (Level 5 Captain) at 2/22/2007 5:16:01 AM
Wow, great! I remember seeing the unfinished version a while ago, it's been improved a lot since then... I loved the game, and I love your pic!
buloght (Level 6 Hitman) at 2/22/2007 1:36:41 AM
Superb. I'm holding the MI 1 box cover in my hand now :D. MichaS (Level 1 Depressed) at 2/22/2007 12:39:59 AM
Ech, dude..... Light is great, great.....This detail....damn....
Ego (Level 4 Lieutenant) at 2/21/2007 8:47:52 PM
There's gonna have to be some legendary stuff to keep this off the top 10 charts for February. This is amazing. Love the tribal warrior.
The B.O.B. (Level 11 Master Assassin) at 2/21/2007 6:51:21 PM
It's about damn time you submitted this, Tomic. I was kinda angry no one was givin' this the lovin' it deserved at pixelation. Although some parts still seem slightly unfinished, like Guy's left hand, and the strange way the pirate's eye patch seems to melt into the brow of his skin, I would call it quits with this. Also, it kinda feels like you couldn't come up with anything to fill the negative space directly underneath his left arm, so you just made a little stick figure, for filler.However, It's fine as is.I loved it then, and i love it now. And now, finally, I can fav' it.
...
Don't ever make me wait like that again, you talented bastard!...Heh, excellent job.
iLKke (Level 8 Cannibal) at 2/21/2007 6:39:36 PM
Incredibly good.The only think that I don't like is that it's not an original motif.
Kobun (Level 1 Rookie) at 2/21/2007 6:30:30 PM
You fight like a dairy farmer!
Thanks for my new desktop ^_^ and I must say those transparency effects are very cool.
khorin (Level 1 Gangster) at 2/21/2007 5:03:06 PM
*orgasms* Excellent work! I'm totally in love with that skull with the excellent use of lightsource.
Mykola (Level 2 Flatfoot) at 2/21/2007 4:33:21 PM
Tomic, Tomic... You just can't sit still can you? You just gotta be so damn good at pixeling and kick everybody's ass and make us all look like fucking weekend warrior amateurs. Tsk Tsk.
nihilyst (Level 2 Flatfoot) at 2/21/2007 3:43:54 PM
Love the games and love your homage. The details are amazing, the composition is great. 5p
