Description The Waterfall Boss from Contra(NES) Done for my 8-Bit Evil Show.... 12" X 60" Acrylic on canvas. This is probably the closest thing I have done to a landscape painting in a long time.

This boss is called "entrance guardian", for those wondering. Nice job on this!

Striking piece of work here. Excellent use of color. Making the door guardian and sky red really brings a heavier foreboding mood to the otherwise cool and calm waterfall setting. I wouldn't change a thing.

I remember the headaches this stage used to give me when I was a kid, now I can breeze through it!

I guess I gained more skill over the years since 90% of the games I play are over 10 years old.

I was tempted to put it under "landscape". I have some long thin canvases and boards... i might just do more NES landscapes

Monster Party has some cool ones... [link]
