It's a fish eat fish world out there! My entry for the food stamp challenge. Hopefully I'll make another smaller one over the weekend. Originally I planned on making it much more colorful but these colors kinda stuck with me. Yeah, I don't know shit about what real fish look like ;D edit: fishhook added! thanks, adamplays

iLKke (Level 8 Guerrilla) at 5/16/2009 5:39:06 AM

Thank, all!

@Darth Mandarb: There is no bait on purpose. I wanted to make the scene more ironic ;)

Packrat (Level 7 General Manager) at 5/10/2009 11:35:22 PM

Very catchy piece. :) It might also work on color, if you ever intend to come back to it.

timmy999999999 (Level 1 Rookie) at 5/2/2009 11:35:08 PM

HobbyPromoter (Level 1 Rookie) at 4/11/2009 10:42:29 PM

Mathias (Level 4 Shichikyu) at 2/6/2009 3:55:49 PM

The colors are so nice. Has a great semi-photorealistic look to. Upon inspecting it, I guess this is largely due to the great dithery shading going on, very intuitively done. The overall lighting is another big one, too.

volcom (Level 1 Depressed) at 12/24/2008 4:34:29 PM

not only is detail and linework great, but you had a very good idea put into this. NICE

Darth Mandarb (Level 10 Operative) at 9/1/2008 5:52:27 AM

As surt said ... the hook has no bait! But it's still bad-ass!

loaderror (Level 1 Rookie) at 4/17/2008 4:11:52 PM

Mil (Level 3 Private Eye) at 5/21/2007 1:55:34 AM

it reminds me a work we had to make in art class when I was student, but the result was way far from your amazing work ;)
Perfect entry, I just love the way you shade those fishes ^-^

de Thch (Level 1 Private) at 5/21/2007 1:19:21 AM

The idea is extraordinary and the excellent realization is excellent !!

one word ... great ... :D

inkspot (Level 4 Button Man) at 5/20/2007 8:38:50 AM

I think the hook is a bit too big for the little fish

But the textureing of this piece is AWESOME!

Hapiel (Level 11 Psychopath) at 5/20/2007 12:27:21 AM

who is going to be eaten first?

cure (Level 11 Sensei) at 5/19/2007 4:30:36 PM

Illke. I have a confession... I love you. Let's get married.

Larwick (Level 8 Regional Boss) at 5/19/2007 1:28:58 PM

Ah, the addition of the hook is wonderfelle.

Guts (Level 2 Corporal) at 5/19/2007 1:08:09 PM

Insane using of AA technic

miascugh (Level 4 Team Leader) at 5/19/2007 12:44:15 PM

Absolutely sweet. And no to speculars!!

Leath (Level 2 Kukyu) at 5/19/2007 12:15:18 PM

Really nice, this one.

natano (Level 1 Rookie) at 5/19/2007 10:12:40 AM

WOOOW good job this funny man

exocet (Level 6 Major) at 5/19/2007 7:05:13 AM

Great job as usual! Good choice of colours and I like the slightly chaotic surface you used on the fishes, it makes them look more believable I think.

Tremulant (Level 1 Gangster) at 5/19/2007 6:50:30 AM

wow... nice work. Really, nice work.

Gas 13 (Level 9 Necrophiliac) at 5/19/2007 3:46:05 AM

Why don't you submit it to PixelStamps?

kakikukeko (Level 5 Detective) at 5/19/2007 3:41:27 AM

the fishes are amazing, but you could have done a bit more than copy a fish and paste it everywhere..

the asymetrical border is a nice touch!
the colors are great and fit perfectly what I imagine of Serbia ...

(no offense, I'm just kidding and ignorant

)
next time, maybe, I'll post an interesting comment...

edit: I just decided to give it a go and noticed that the asymetrical border is in the template lol, I didn't notice it on the other entries

Presley (Level 1 Seaman) at 5/19/2007 3:32:01 AM

Not only is it brilliantly pixelled, but the concept is great too.

I agree with Jamon, speculars could make it seem more pixel-art like too.

HoofFoot (Level 8 Regional Boss) at 5/19/2007 2:34:28 AM

Whoa! The fishes look so real! I agree with gorgothon destroyer, you make everyone else look bad!

Stickman (Level 6 SWAT) at 5/19/2007 12:09:35 AM

That is just super amazing!

gorgothon destroyer (Level 1 Depressed) at 5/18/2007 6:52:50 PM

Stop making everybody look bad!!

jamon (Level 9 Federal Agent) at 5/18/2007 4:00:08 PM

ups... double post =)

jamon (Level 9 Federal Agent) at 5/18/2007 2:54:30 PM

Great idea.... 5+
maybe you need more specular on some parts of fish.. my opinion

skeddles (Level 11 Psychopath) at 5/18/2007 1:43:20 PM

MashPotato (Level 7 Underboss) at 5/18/2007 1:30:06 PM

Yet another great, eye-boggling piece!

skeddles (Level 11 Psychopath) at 5/18/2007 1:17:23 PM

Love it.

iLKke (Level 8 Guerrilla) at 5/18/2007 12:44:49 PM

adamp > good idea about the fishhook. I'll try to stick it in without losing the composition. regarding transparency, I figured wtf pixelstamps project has a fixed bg color :P

AdamPlays (Level 6 SWAT) at 5/18/2007 12:27:58 PM

Beautiful! But why isn't the little fish eating anything? Stick a hook in front of the little guy for added irony.

Oh, and shouldn't the stamp edge be transparency?

jalonso (Level 11 Godfather) at 5/18/2007 11:29:42 AM

Now that's creative thinking, jeez.

iLKke (Level 8 Guerrilla) at 5/18/2007 11:04:36 AM

Thanks, all.

elend > yeah, at least I was one. http://pouet.net/groups.php?which=1214

Larwick (Level 8 Regional Boss) at 5/18/2007 10:54:14 AM

Oh man, it had to be YOU Ilkke. Beautiful work.

chanfan (Level 7 Underboss) at 5/18/2007 9:49:01 AM
