Landscape artwork and other stuff

[helpcomputer0]

Hi,

I wanted to share some Speccy pixel art I've done over the last couple of years, and I'll be posting new stuff here too. It's mostly landscapes but I do some weird stuff too. I like to try different styles, sometimes it works and sometimes not

Let me know if you have any suggestions for good subjects for Speccy pixel art too!

I posted a thread with my game mockups here if you're interested or want art for a game: viewtopic.php?t=7051

Riva del Garda:


Outpost:


Secret Lake:


Vincent:

These are beautiful. Wonderful textures and details, thank you for sharing!

[R-Tape]

These are beautiful. I like 'Outpost' especially. They would make for one hell of a text adventure.

[stupidget]

That Vincent one is stunning. Great work.

[helpcomputer0]

Thanks for the comments!

Recently finished something a bit different.

[RWAC]

These are incredible.

[PeterJ]

These are wonderful. They wouldn't look out if place in a gallery.

Thanks for sharing.

[Ralf]

Gorgeous! Thanks for sharing these.

Riva del Garda is one of the best screens ever seen on a Spectrum

Fantastic stuff :O

It seems that there are a few great new artists working on the Speccy in the last few years and I am loving it

In case it interests you, I'll make the same offer that I made to @Grongy in his "Showcasing my graphics" thread - if you ever want to make a slideshow (or something more) then I would be more than happy to help. I literally have the code to do this just sat waiting in GitHub

Thanks Paul! I think I will eventually, maybe end of this year? It's been my most productive year so might be a good time.

New one finished today.

Gorgeous work! Love the van Gogh - I've often thought he was quite "Spectrummy" in his bold use of colours and textures.

A wintery scene finished today.

Last one finished for this year most likely.

These are amazing I wish I had half the skill with Spectrum palette limits.

[zxbruno]

Thank you for this. Talented for sure.

The Spanish magazine Microhobby had a screen$ section that sometimes had beautiful landscapes, created by its readers. Your art unlocked those memories.

Happy new year, first one of 2023.

Farflame the Dragonlord, recruitment scene

Another fantasy piece.

To say brilliant is an understatement

[EdToo]

To say brilliant is an understatement

A total understatement it is amazing what can be produced with a limited palette and only 2 colours per pixel. I'm in awe.

[Nitrowing]

Another fantasy piece.

Makes me wonder what the artwork in The Hobbit could have looked like

[helpcomputer0]

Thanks for the kind words everyone.

I think about this too about lots of other games. We do have much better tools these days though so it's much easier to create what you want.
