Title: THUS HAVE I HEARD. . . MSX
Post by: skw on August 01, 2009, 10:16:11 pm
. . . at one time.

Sony MSX palette ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MSX ), 15 unique colors, restrictions neglected and the grid not "kept to".

I really liked the colors (although the palette lacks deeper and darker hues to build proper ramps on) and so decided to give it a go. 7, maybe 8 hours of deep meditation.

It probably looks like Ptoing went crazy in places, and yes, it was inspired by his MSX attempts, but I wanted to do something less hardware dependent. I might as well do something in keeping with the restrictions at a later basis.

TEH INSPIRATION (I guess): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EYo6oi8q_lQ (Metallic Monks, Fallout OST).
