Man of the Desert, not to be confused with Man of the Dessert, he'll render you inert, just ask my boy Albert, they tangled and now the doctor's questioning me as to the means by which he got so badly hurt. Switched on my beats began to flow, I says "Doc, it was The Man of the Desert, he's a no-good manga pervert. I mean look at the flat rendering style, dirty dithering that goes on for a mile. And then check the border, so old skool, it's way outa order, looks like something done by batlorder. Use of light and shadow that makes me cry, but check the tranquil sky. What's more atmospheric in this peice - the irreconcilable separation of an earnest attempt and a failed try or the confused palette usage juxtaposed to the monotonous and paper-thin impression of the foreground visage? Pervading pwnage warranting my retakes in 320 columns of regretted mistakes multiplied by 240 horizontal rows of cheescake, look at Albert, now he's got the black shakes, Jonny Mnemonic where you at, head full of data, futuristic vampire in your techno-coffin, petting the dolphin, you've got the cure, where's it at? Ice T don't know where to check, I asked him, he's only a low-tech. And Jonny's not talkin', he's materialistic, you know he risks it all everyday just for that paycheck. Liked you better as a surfer big K, swinging those fists out on the causeway, you could always be found hanging ten, but look at my friend, your world has taken it's toll, with it's radiation and cell phones, now The Man of the Desert beat him up looking for that smack just cuz he's got the jones'. And what a world it is. What a world indeed talkin' this random prose when I only meant to comment about how his eye looks mutated like Sloth from The Goonies, cuz it's growin' straight out his nose. It's the choice he chose, can we expect more from a dude with a moniker like d9nis, and I needed a word that rhymed with anus. But that may not rhyme . . . I don't know . . . though I feel it's time to end this rhyme before Jalonso catches me spamming again, I heard he's back fiending on that dime. J,  take a lesson from Darryl, stop what you're doing, you don't want to find yourself at the end of the barrel." Just then, Albert died. I spent so long spittin' to the fly beats, Albert went stonecold, corpse wide eyed and starin' down the tunnel at gates of gold. He looks so peaceful now. Carting his body away, tools on the tray, pizza guy just came, so the Doctor just rolls him out the way. Now I realize, Doc didn't care, he just hoped the pizza guy would soon be there, not the paramedic, not the anaesthetic to ease his pain, so Doc rides away in his gravy train, pepperoni in hand. Thus is life in the Man of the Desert land.

I love this!

The shading on the face and clothes, as has been said, is a little iffy, but I love the clouds, sky, and cityscape. Great job!

Very well done! I like all the details

Christoballs (Level 7 Neanderthal) @ 5/21/2009 11:27

Okay!
J'avais bien dit que je ne t'accusais pas d'un vol de pixelart (j'ai regardé ce dernier et le tien pendant un bon bout de temps) mais que cependant il me rappelait du pixelart de kingpyfiou. Bon, affaire close! ;p

Okay!
I did say that I wasn't blaming you of stealing pixelart ( I looked at the latter and yours for quite a bit of time) but however it still remind of kingpyfiou's pixelart. Case closed! ;p

Hey!

Thanks a lot!

Christoballs, Je parle français également. Hein? Tu le savais déja? Ok. Non, je ne l'ai pas piqué, je n'avais même aucune connaissance de ce pixelart. En fait, comme expliqué sur mon blog, l'idée de base date d'un speed painting debut 2008... Et j'ai bien compris tes explications :)

Merci de ton interêt :)

Reminds me of the Prince of Persia. Nice work.

This is cool, well made and with a nice composition. I just do not like the great amount of outlines here and there, like in the sand. Textures you made are really great as well.

The guy reminds me of this piece:http://www.pixeljoint.com/pixelart/40517.htm
I'm not saying you stole it, but the mood and face structure are similar (but not the same!)
I think you could've deleted some of the darkest shade present near the building to convey depth. The character would look more part of the piece if he were affected by the moonlight (for now he seems to be part of the desert only). Nice shading and dithering!

(je parle français donc si tu veux une explication approfondie n'hésite pas)

Pretty cool. I just dont like the face texture that much. Not very skin-ish.

Hot damn. That's some nice pixeling.

My favorite part is the city on the horizon. Excellent work!
