How do these display via WallPaper Engine on a 4k monitor? Does it stretch or is it a tiny image?
Also, it's great!

They stretch, and the pixels show :'''')

I like everything about that scene, except the icebergs. The amount of mass those things have is immense, so there is absolutely no way they bob around like that as if they're balloons. If you slowed them down and decreased that actual amount of motion it'd be perfect.

Could you imagine an 8-bit skyrim? It'd be awesome
Kuronii t1_ix9gbjp wrote
Those are ice floes, but I don't know enough to say whether they would bob or not, though I feel like they would.
Zargabraath t1_ix9ge0c wrote
Those are ice floes, not icebergs, and they absolutely do bob up and down like that

Nothing wrong with someone selling their work. Its not like they are walmart in here, talking about a coupon for tide.

It’s a play on the common NordVPN sponsor on youtube, they’re not critiquing op
Jimmyginger t1_ix9vb5w wrote
I think they were just making a joke/reference to the name being Nord, and how Nord VPN is a common sponsor in many online platforms.

They do when there are rippling waves/eddies in the water. It caught me off as well since the water is drawn so smooth.

This looks like the setting for my new favorite PC RPG ca. 1992
Very cool. Are there any contemporary games with this aesthetic?
prettycoolbro t1_ixa4exi wrote
Not many comments here so I just thought I'd drop by to tell ya that this is real nice and it makes me feel good so thank you
BummerComment t1_ixa4g0u wrote
Their motion was the last thing I noticed, actually, and I appreciated it as the final element to keep the image "alive".

vaasan_ruispalat t1_ixab085 wrote
Yes, it's just a combination of all the colors you can perceive. Only "real" colors that a human can see are blue, green and red. Everything else is some sort of a combination of those.

Yes. White, light grey, dark grey, charcoal. Well, I guess they all have blue in them. But I had to show myself past the illusion as well. Something something perceived shadow

What made you choose hand draw over some pixelate color/scale map filtering program?
- like im a little rusty on my signal processing, but a averaging filter convolution/downsample, then 1/sqrt() normalization to color map, wouldnt even be bad in numpy

It's not contemporary, but the style is identical. Most Sierra adventure games from the late 80s looked just like this.

Not bad for a two-bit artist.
Edit: Sorry, just a bad pun - four colors can be represented with two bits per pixel.

nandersen444 t1_ixbk0h1 wrote
Well first of all they require a lot of skill and patience to make an artfully detailed 8-bit cubists scene like this with 3D effects. Secondly, as with all art, it is subjective, and it’s okay if it’s not your thing. Just let others enjoy it 😊

It is because of the checkerboard pattern, your brain tricks you in to seeing a different color instead of the pattern

I mean, the pixels showing could be a bonus for people that like pixel art.

Anas, did I mention that I looove your art? Whenever I scroll and see those they make me very happy. If I had a few euros to spare I'd love to commission one myself but that's live for me... :/
