Fascinated, yes. Interested, yes. Obsessed, no.

I think I can say I'm obsessed when I posted my most recent work...

Pixel art is just another medium. Good for some things, terrible for others. With art, obsessions are unhealthy, limiting and mentally block artistic growth. That's a no-no.

Guess i used the wrong word here(that or you all hate me?) i just prefer it over other styles because all you have to do is zoom in and be able to see exactly how the image was created, its the same with chiptunes, the final product can rival traditional composition styles yet still be de-compiled and reimplemented, without "copying".

Please don't feel like anyone hates you, I don't think it's the case at all.

Whoa! Two things; just suggestions: give the tail some dangerous spiky razored protrusiuons, it's a little boring as is. And, what about some bg details. That horizon could use some spicing up. Love the head and wings!

@ thetooth. Nobody hates you. No worries.
