<div class="IPBDescription">FEAR MY DRAWINGS!</div> Erm... enjoy?

I have A LOT more ideas. I'll get to work on those comics after school... *cringe*

Yes, I know, it sucks and it's not funny, but please don't flame me. I've been doing this for around 2 years with over 60-or so comics.... <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Oops...forgot to ask...do you have your other 60 or so comics posted on a website somewhere? I'd be interested in checking it out. Didn't see a link or anything...

    Sid, I think you've been misinformed on the concept of 8bit/pixel art.

    Firstly, your image is a jpg. Gif is the standard format of pixel art as the image will not get any colour loss (Such as yours)
    Second, your image isn't 100% pixelated. On the last frame you've just squiggled a green line around (no offence) instead of drawing the same thing pixel by pixel.

    I recommend you check out <a href='http://www.zoggles.co.uk' target='_blank'>Zoggles website</a> and browse through the pixel section.
    An example of his work

    However, I take this all back if this was the effect your were after...

    correct me if I'm wrong, but where is this "art" you speak of? All I see is protoman from Megaman, a modified megaman/methat style red rick-o-shay, and the onos smiley which wasn't given proper transparancy.

    Woah... getting flamed for saying "art"

    Indeed they are modified megaman sprites, but do I really care what you think I should do with them... Jeez. It's just a comic, sorry for saying "Art". <!--emo&:angry:--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/mad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='mad.gif'><!--endemo-->

    And no, I do not have a website with the rest of 'em there..

    And yes, this WAS the intedned affect..

    Sh yes, you have just learned the first lesson of making stuff that is funny, but not good looking.
    NEVER call it art. Call it crap, or perhaps "funny stuuf that looks like poo on a stick". It usually descrubes it better, it lets people know exactly what they are looking at, and doesn't anger the "real" artists.

    It's not supposed to bloody look good! it's a bloody 16-bit comic... It's supposed to be funny.. LAUGH ****. Your not supposed to judge the way it looks. Okay, so I called it "art" my bad. So sue me. God... <!--emo&:angry:--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/mad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='mad.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Better. Now you've learned your place on the visual creativity ladder.

    as Infinitum demonstrated 16 bit can still look good... and if you're going for humor and not art.... you still aren't achieving it. I read Bob and George every day and like it... this I don't...

    Now THIS is a sexy megaman copy... although he's very old school

    As for your posted images (I call them that incase I
    get flamed for saying "cartoons" instead of "pixel art" or whatever)
    are very good. Both amused me and are better than anything
    I could do. Well done, post more if possible <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Yeah, yeah, I read BnG, but I don't think they done this gag before.... are you sure they have, though? Well, if your wondering, i didn't steal it. It might be the same as someone elses but I thought it up for my comic.

    What would you do for a klondike bar...?
    Oh, and I *WISH* I was up at BnG.... that'd be a dream come true!

    P.S. The Rockman idea has been done thousands of times over. Bob and George weren't the first ones, either.
    (Protoman finally found a logical excuse to blow up Megaman... hoorah.... and why do I get the eerie feeling that this topic is going to be locked int he near future? <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo--> )
