Description
EDIT: Now you can download this artworks to your mobile at [link]Some people were asking why they can't find artworks from my site here in dA gallery. It looks like I found a good solution to post them all with not flooding my devwatch friends with 39D
I was pixeling ZX-Spectrum artworks since 1997. Most of this artworks were taking part in demoscene competitions. It was really great to be a part of ZX-Spectrum demoscene. But I think it's time to turn the page.
Joining mobile game market and learning not that limited styles of pixelart I've decided to set some bold DOT: .
All this artworks were made using Art Studio or Burial GFX Editor, some recent artworks made with Photoshop. All this artworks made with EGA pallete (16 colors). Every 8x8 pixels cell have only 2 colors.
Sorted in order of appearence. Newer is higher.
Description for every single artwirk could be found here: [link]
Thanks for looking

Amazing, almost incredible when you know ZX screen restrictions.
In Spin Emulator now you can see the screens in 15 different colours: [link]

If you give people a bottleneck, they'll come from miles around to see what they can fit through it. All the best computers have that sweet balance between power and limitations and people manage to eek incredible things from them. I've seen a C64 do castle wolfenstein!

These are really awesome, they're something nice and different in a world where isometric pixel art and 'dolls' seem to gain the most attention. The detail is stunning.
