Ho-lee... o_O

Positively di-vine. Thanks. =)

Are we still cool for a collab? You're still the one who does organic horror things well. =0

Pixel-by-pixel, wow.

Okay, so I cheated on some parts by Copy-Flip-Pasting... but thanks. =)

Yeah I saw it's symmetrical, but still, you're good.

What an intricate and elaborate work.
I'm especially in love with the pattern on the "pants" of the angel.

Damn. @_@

On an awesomeness scale from one to ten this is eleven.

CAPTAIN THE READINGS ARE OFF THE SCALE

Thanks very much. =)

Gorgeous. I'd like to see what would happen if this was dropped into Game of Life, or maybe with modified rules. The halo would look particularly awesome if it was interpreted on a different dimension. :3

Good idea! I'll look for a Game Of Life simulator that imports bitmaps, and see if it looks good as a GIF animation. =D

i love you

<Star Wars reference>

I know.

Thank you. =)

LOL

This is truly wonderful work.
your style makes me very happy

wow that mustve taken ages to make

Dang, son, this is pretty impressive work. Sometimes I feel like obsessive pixel art is kind of masochistic/masturbatory, but you've really put the medium to work here. This wouldn't have worked any other way, and the forms make sense and are interesting at the same time. Very cool stuff!

Pixel art in the sense of sprites -- where you zoom out from it to see if it looks good in display scale, then put dots in where needed -- seem to me more like drawing with limited colours and size, and in discrete packets, rather than an actual exploration of pixel manipulation. In this one, I attempted to make pixel art that "grew" like a plant from a single point (it started on the "neck").

When I do intricate stuff like this (see also the background) it's actually almost therapeutic, like making mandalas.

 pyurio has mentioned to me that this reminded him of Kufi calligraphy, which I was probably picking up from, subconsciously.

Thanks for the words! =D

Wow, it does look amazingly like kufi calligraphy. Your art always gives me a breath of fresh air and a sense of awe <3

It might have been unintentional, but I love that when you scroll up and down, it seems to temporarily glow with yellow light.

Also, I have a feeling I need a list of books from you that I should read for my spiritual/mental growth.

I can't remember what it's called, but that optical effect might be because of the contrast between the near-black pixels and the light background. Like looking at a red wall too long and everything ends up looking green-tinted?

For literature of the spiritual/mythological sort, I like to visit: http://www.sacred-texts.com/ Tons of free reads. =D

awesome

Beautiful, wow...
