Artist's Comments

After a few months of working on this on and off through other distractions, it is done. I have been haphazzardly calling this my "masterpiece," but since I did not conceive the original concept, I can hardly claim that. Either way, it is probably one of my best pixel pieces to date, and I made extensive use of dithering, and it worked well I think.

Is it me, or do album covers look better in pixel art? Or maybe it is just the quality of work in CD Case 02 - The Division Bell by ~mr-pharand! Dithering done right is a beautiful thing. (Featured by `halfliquid)

Amazing, you've captured different shades, textures and tones. Looks just like the original.
:iconhetkala:
looks real good, so you have drawn/pixelated this your own from beginning (white sheet) to the end?
Then wow, it is identic to the original.

btw. I would appreciate, if I could take a closer look, why is is so small?

Nicely done! The dithering is flawless and you captured the colors very well.

It's time to leave reality, and run into your dreams. Where heartache becomes madness, and madness turns to screams.

Wonderful work, it almost doesn't look like pixel art at all. I can see how you managed to spend months on it. Dithering is a pain to make, but you did it very well.
:iconso-lou:
That is PERFECT. I looove it - the heads are so good and the sky is soooo good and the tree on the horizon is soooooooo good. I have momentarily had my articulate vocabulary stolen for the moment. Wow, I could stare at this and marvel at it for hours...EXCELLENT STUFF. Fav!

This is my signature, AREN'T YOU EXCITED???
