@Rox: I am a strong believer that art doesn't need a point other than the enjoyment of the artist, i enjoyed this, thus the point
@Skull: Feel free to steal the idea, i was subconsciously inspired by matte paintings i think.
@Helm: I think the demosceners did a fine job of exactly copying thier references in pixels
@Silver: I can't really take credit from the colours as i used ones already present in the photo
@Xion: I saw your magnificent piece in the creativity thread. I'll definitley have more interaction in the next one.
@Alex: Thanks, your pixels always get me hot and bothered.
