I really love this style! It's sorta cartoony, but still doesn't look too much cartoony ^^ 5 small blobs for you ^^;

Gas 13 (Level 9 Necrophiliac) at 7/30/2007 2:25:58 AM
Never heard of it. Just checked wiki regarding it and really there are some points to call it like that :)

- disturbing hieroglyphs;
- geometry of R’lyeh is abnormal.

user
Psiweapon (Level 2 Petty Officer) at 7/29/2007 7:59:06 PM
Real cool, although it makes me think more of R'Lyeh than of Atlantis.

user
NekoGirlEli (Level 1 Rookie) at 7/29/2007 11:13:10 AM
Whoah that is exactly how I imagined Atlantis too. Nice colour and contrast. The design overall makes me wonder if Atlantis really did exist at one time.

beautiful. 5/5


user
hunted rogue (Level 1 Jukyu) at 7/28/2007 2:17:57 PM
wow! I love the detail and the shading in this piece! The contrast between the light blue and the dark color is really awesome!

user

Gorgeous Gas! This pic is so clean and has a very refreshing feel. I like the blurry effect on the last fish to the left.

user
Gas 13 (Level 9 Necrophiliac) at 7/27/2007 6:33:47 AM
Well, my english is not my native language either and sadly I didn't get your idea even though I was reading it several times. Thanks for trying anyway :)

Btw, it's not an obelisk, at least I supposed it to look like some other hidden civilization with own language (the sign is to show that) and so on... :)

user
Waphex (Level 1 Rookie) at 7/27/2007 5:29:54 AM
ok first i thought there was some kind of obelsik ( the engraved stone on the right ) i thought that because of the pointy triangle at the left of the stone. what bothers me is that this engraved stone  is placed right on the horizon ( if i follow the perspectiv lines ) and i think you would improve the dynamism of the composition i these edges would follow the general composition direction wich seems to point the center top of the image. i don't know if i made myself clear (i'm french and my english is far from perfect so be indulgent =p )

user
Gas 13 (Level 9 Necrophiliac) at 7/27/2007 4:24:11 AM
Thanks for the comments, guys!

Waphex, please let me know what part do you find symmetrical as I'm really confused. The rays over the stones are senseless, that's true. I just felt it look better this way :) On other hand it could be some reflected lights, right? :)

very cool and inspiring gas. i like the light and overall feel.

user
BlackEye (Level 2 Quiet One) at 7/25/2007 4:47:56 AM
hehe yes, gotchi fighters was fun. i guess nowadays, having such a big community of pixelartists, it would be easier to get gotchies drawn and animated

but nobody really knows what a mess the sourcecode was =)

user
Waphex (Level 1 Rookie) at 7/25/2007 3:53:52 AM
very nice job ! too bad that the obelisk is too symetrical. it would gain to point the light to improve the composition. a little detail also bothers me, the rays of light over the stones, they seems not coming from the source of light. anyway, great work, the color, the design and the texture are cool !

user
Gas 13 (Level 9 Necrophiliac) at 7/25/2007 3:38:01 AM
Thanks for the nice comments :)

ilkke, updated description with steps. As you see, choosing colors was a real problem during the process and I was changing palette like 5 or 6 times. If you have any tips or ideas, please share, would be interesting.

BlackEye, just a day ago miascugh were commenting Osmi recalling sweet Gotchi Fighters times :) Really glad to hear it's inspiring for you.

AdamPlays, agreed, it's always easier to get a good-looking underwater landscape than... than... anything :|

user
crusader333 (Level 3 Stalker) at 7/25/2007 3:19:40 AM
wow that's beautiful... I love the layout of the whole thing

user
iLKke (Level 8 Guerrilla) at 7/25/2007 1:55:58 AM
Excellent!
Maybe you could work on the colors a bit more?

user
jamon (Level 9 Federal Agent) at 7/25/2007 12:44:30 AM
Fantastic work!

user
BlackEye (Level 2 Quiet One) at 7/24/2007 11:03:55 PM
gas, gas, gas... you improved so incredibely fast over the last years since i know you (while i still stand at the beginning and didn't move in any direction >_<).
i absolutely dig the stones - the way you first draw a sketch colored and put layer after layer over it for choosing the colors is cleary the right way.
The image makes me "Yeah! I want to pixel something... blasting... amazing"

Absolute fav'd and whatnot :)

user
Deltakatachre (Level 1 Depressed) at 7/24/2007 9:46:42 PM

You should stay underwater more often.  You have that type of environment down to a tee. 

user
BadMrBox (Level 2 Quiet One) at 7/24/2007 5:54:51 PM
It's very lovely :)
