Thx for the replies guys and gals.


No new colour added. one easy and one intermediate tile.

good lord sven...  still not finished this yet? sheesh...
We have not worked on it for over a year for various reasons, wiseguy  :P

You guys blow my mind. I don;t see how this is even possible. It makes me think so much lower of myself as an artist lol.

Thx, but with this attitude you have lost as an artist. Practise is everything. Lots of it. Since I started pixeling in april 2003 I pixeled alot of stuff in my freetime and since almost a year I work as a professional pixelartist so i get plenty of practise every day, and i also study demoscene and oldschool gameart quite a bit. It all helps. Just saying "omg this is impossible, i could never do this" is just as good as giving up.

oh sven, you are so productive.
Yes I am, I work and I also have other things I do apart from working on this collab. btw, you are 1 strike away from having 3 strikes, just informing you ;)

Helm/Ptoing collab continues one year hiatus.
Fixed.
You go and scan that page before you make statements like that. BURN!

like... putting your page online again? :P
faules stück :D

Har! I am working on it. My homepage has a shite infrastructure and is hence a bit tedious to update, esp after over 1 year of slacking.

Hehe quite the little collection of various golems we've got going on the bottom row. I'll do my tiles tonight, I'll probably try to do one of the more difficult ones (next to the stone formation, perhaps) so we can get a bit unstuck since we seem to be doing easy golems to stall the fact that we eventually HAVE to go back to the dinoguy and the left part.

Guys, give Ptoing a break with the time schedule :P He's living the dream, doing pixels for a living! I sit here and draw comics and pet my cat. I've time.

If nobody else posts after me, this post reserved for art.

Haha! Coventry is a shithole and you know it.

I reckon a return visit from the Luftwaffe would probably make it prettier on average. ;)

It used to be prettier than stratford you know...? back in the day... those incediaries really did the work. Blooming 1950's design... what a disgrace. (mind you, the swan theatre ain't exactly the most cutting edge of architechural icons is it?)

I'm in leam btw - nice to have another old skool pixeler in these parts... once upon a time the place was crawling with them (thanks to codies) - that was before the dark side came and ruined it all, before the dreaded Z-Axis...

two sky tiles to finish up with the sky eventually, and a tile of rockage which proved to be more interesting than not. You have a bottom red secondary lightsource to deal with now, ptoing!

I see you have an eye for the choice cuts! Here you go, then!



I'll probably add an arm when we're done with the piece, to balance out dino.
