It’s the colours that are doing it. I can see what I want in my mind, but when I put it on the computer it looks washed out. Argh. I might have to re-colour this when I’m done. Thank God it’s such a long deadline. 🙂 ---

I hope I can manage to finish this on time, I know it´s a long deadline, but, for now, I can only do this at work. And I got to say it is a big pain to make all little details that a castle should have ☹ ---

Ahh, now that would be where I’m cheating. 🙂 Well, I say cheating… Purely in an artistic licence sense is what I mean. ---

who set the ground rules for pixel art? How do we know when someone is cheating? other than the use of filters, text, and images? I think that no one will be doing this literally pixel-by-pixel… ---

Ah, you misunderstand… When I say cheating, I mean that I’m not drawing a whole castle. Mine is literally in ruins. That way I don’t have to draw lots of fiddly bits. 🙂 A cunning plan, I think you’ll agree. ---

Hehe - the key word in “castle ruins” is ‘castle’. And no-one ever said I \couldn’t\ do a ruined one, so that’s a nifty little loophole. :beam: ---

Mine uses the occasional fill to do large areas, but otherwise it’s pixel by painstaking pixel. And it’s coming along. I’m turning it from being slightly grey to something a bit more vibrant, so we’ll have to see. I dunno… Kitiara’s Psychedelic Castle of Funkiness, maybe… [Previous page](https://forum.kirupa.com/t/new-pixel-battle/10674.md?page=4) [Next page](https://forum.kirupa.com/t/new-pixel-battle/10674.md?page=6)
