This took a while. Decided I needed to finish it a few days back. Think I can call it done now, after plenty of help here and on Pixelation.

24 Colours, colour use isn't optimal.

But I'm satisfied non the less (:

 Coooool!  I just did a jellyfish too, and I love your take on them.  Very electrified!

 This looks a lot like a Creature of the Week entry in the Conceptart.com forums. Looks great anyway. Love the colors. Congratulations

Good bubbles.

Solved already. :)

I think it's your browser or your screen. Looks fine to me. Are you having the same problem with more pictures on the site?


user
Kyata (Level 2 Quiet One) at 8/8/2009 2:36:43 AM

Great picture! But one question: Why is everything blurred? :s Is it my browser maybe?

Holy crap, I just looked at the last page of Opacus' gallery.

That's some MAJOR improvement, man. Props. This piece is great.

wow.

if there was an award for most improved and hardest work, you should win em' indefinitely. Though there is always still plenty more to learn, I feel like you can noticably see yourself becoming exactly what you set out to be with your first pixel works. This is a fantastic piece, keep it up!

ui_ (Level 4 Deputy) at 8/4/2009 7:01:22 PM

 the colors are awesome man :OOOO and the pieze itself is really good to :D. Here is my only critict or suggest, try to use a little dark colors in the background as you did with the blue one. Maybe that will create more ambient and deep on the pieze :D. Goodjob

Jaggys or not, this is beautiful. Job well done.

argh!

I'm afraid of jellyfish :p


user
Squirrelsquid (Level 4 Shichikyu) at 8/3/2009 7:07:34 AM

I like it a lot. as mentioned a bit jaggy here and there, but I could tell instantly that it was yours :)


user
Manupix (Level 11 Godfather) at 8/3/2009 7:02:45 AM

Wow, incredible!

I believe it took time...

Now, if I really had to say something, might be this: I don't really have a feeling of transparency, either in the water or the beast. Don't ask me why... I'd be very happy with myself if I could do that!

That's seriously beautiful.

Awesome piece.=) Wish jellyfish and bg would relate somehow colorwise.


user
Skurwy87 (Level 6 Made) at 8/2/2009 5:34:29 PM

oh, and forgot to tell you -- I really like how you shaded (count aa in) the hmm tentacles? . . . especially that subtle dithering patterns in their upper parts. makes me want to stare at them all over.


user
blueleds (Level 1 Rookie) at 8/2/2009 3:51:32 PM

 Coool.. i like the vibrant orange colors


user
RollerKingdom (Level 7 Mass Murderer) at 8/2/2009 3:09:28 PM

Wow amazing!!!


user
The B.O.B. (Level 11 Master Assassin) at 8/2/2009 1:10:46 PM

Looks good. Only problem I have is that the tentacles-stingers of the Jelly fish seem to be a bit too intense, color wise. I wouldn't use such a bright red, considering how thin the tentacles are...maybe a duller red/amber color mixed blue/olive hue to give it that type of glow...but yeah, been watching at pixelation, and liked what I saw. Everything that I would have said, has already been said there before, so nothing else much from me.

 

ps, love the bubbles!

The innability to spot jaggies on my own artwork is really starting to piss me off. I really thought I got rid of all I could get rid of. But I guess you've still found some?


user
Dex (Level 11 CEO) at 8/2/2009 12:56:34 PM

Aside from the jaggies I love it, man =)

Wow! It's great! :)


user
asukicco (Level 8 Regional Boss) at 8/2/2009 12:43:47 PM

 This is really great! I dig the colours choice, very nice and effective. I also think a little heavy use of AA can make it more jellyfishy-ish as well as making it more round and soft. : )


user

FANTASTIC!  I love jellyfish!  This is gorgeous - faved!
