Description WHOA! it's finished! Finally.

This baby took me about 30 hrs to make in Photoshop. It has over 200 layers and the real thing has a moving subway. To see that, you'll have to visit Pixeldam .

I hope you like this and I hope that it will inspire experienced and novice pixel artists to add their creativity to the Pixeldam community.

Those blocks are made by ยขmultivitamin here is the original block [link]

They are in this compositions, because I made a screenshot of the CityHall -inside- the Down Town neighborhood. You could still suggest it to ^halfliquid

I plan to edit it and give it a firm makeover.. I have learned a lot since then.

Dank je. Ti sinderdaad ff ervoor gaan zitten. Maar dat is een iets wat PixelArt met zich meebrengt.. veel geduld. Trouwens erg ontspannend om te doen. Net als alle andere hobbies natuurlijk.

White-Dragon-NL In reply to bgr [2004-11-17 23:54:47 +0000 UTC]

Aan geduld voor zo'iets zal het bij mij nie liggen ( Kan uren lang met een stom blauwballpennetje aan een A4'tje vast geplakt blijven zitten. ) Heb ook een paar keer aan dit soort werkjes zitten denken maar het komt er maar nie van.
Als je mijn werk ziet zou je dat messchien nie zo snel zeggen(draken en dood & verderf. ), maar Ik vind die pixelcity werken altijd erg gaaf om the zien, ook omdat je weet dat er zeer veel tijd in gaat zitten.
Zeer indrukwekkend.

haggleman [2004-09-24 07:48:51 +0000 UTC]

Awesome. Just plain awesome.

There are soooo many little details in this, like the little fountain/statue in the plaza, the people walking the dog, the santa and his sleigh (?!), the train route map and finally, the Vodafone logo in the subway.

This whole picture would suck if it didn't have that Vodafone logo.

The colours on this are awesome, very urban, and slightly furturistic (near future). The colours and general style of this makes the town look and feel clean and tidy, like a well established community.

Amazing.

when you are doing something like this, where do you start?

๐Ÿ‘: 0 โฉ: 1

bgr In reply to thedsw [2004-07-30 10:46:15 +0000 UTC]

First I set up a rough sketch with the line tool, to make a composite of the scene.

Then I pixel the outlines of the structures followed by coloring. I color later, because of i change things, i will not have wasted time. Lastly I add shadow and animation.
