Old Master Remastered Challenge

[Bo]

How old or famous does a painter have to be to be counted as an old master? i want to do something by boris valejo but he started in the sixties and that may be to new... but he is still a master

Nah, most of any known artist that plays a mentionable role in art history is fine with me, Dali would be fine just as well as Malevich (somebody do that one heh)

edit: fixed major typo rawr

If it's Malewitsch you're after...

 

Sorry, couldn't help it... Anyways, I may do a van Gogh piece...

I'm gonna try to do The Blinding of Samson.

I'll post when I'm done, which'll be 20-30 years from now.

the pills are a nice touch.

[ptoing]

After Magritte's Empire of light.




I will most definatly do another one, this was too easy

[Faktablad]

Nice one, ptoing.  I'm assuming that's following restrictions and everything?

I love that Magritte painting, the juxtaposition between day and night really stirs me.

[ptoing]

Yes, it follows the ZX Spectrum limits, 2 colours per 8x8 and only either light or dark colours in each square.

Snake: Great, instant save.

ptoing: Yes, it was really like bespoken for the speccy limits. Really nice as i already told you.


The Birth of Chun Li


 28 colors

After Botticelli's Birth of Venus. I only picked that one because it was the first thing i found on my harddrive :)
I abandoned Street Fighter style at some point, but you can still see my failed attempt at nice selout. Ptoing helped me with a nice edit some time in the middle of process, with a couple of tweaks for Chun. He also pointed out a number of times that the head was kind of off, but i couldn't get it to look any better than it is now.
What do you mean, "overdithered"? :P

edit: oh yeah, i used this as a reference for Chun Li
