Description Not something I expected to do really, but here's a... sequel? to another painting I've done in the past Last year, I made a piece of aesthetically pleasing art inspired by both my love for the Hotline Miami games, and the retro 1980's-esque appeal to Miami's sunsets, and today, here's some more of that with a ton more detail!  So why make a sequel to that piece? Well basically, I've recently found myself obsessing over this style all over again, and it's mostly thanks to me getting into new types of music (vaporwave, cloud rap, synthwave/synthpop, etc.) which all use a similar style to this in their music videos and promotional art. I just love it so much ;u; Anyways, I hope you all love this style as much as I do, I just adore how the colours pop  Thanks so much for stopping by! If you enjoyed this piece, please consider sending some love my way? I promise to return the favour  Have a lovely day, buddy

Hahaha maybe, maybe. I gotta say I don't think I can ever "out-do" this piece, because it certainly did a lot better than I ever imagined, so that limits my desire to do more aesthetic art like this, but it's definitely not off the table. Either way though, thank you very much for the support, I greatly appreciate it!

It is great to see other fans, since they seem hidden from the rest. Can't wait for Midnight Animal to show people that these aren't old games to be forgotten. As always, nice work.

Sad fact: I've never actually played Vice City, I grew up on SanAn instead but even still, I really appreciate you saying that, because from what I've seen, that game has some gorgeous design choices in the colours, so thanks a ton, buddy!

Don't forget to use cheat codes when you're not doing missions and such. They are really fun. Tank rampage, character skins, etc.  
And you're welcome! If I had such a great time with this game, I'm sure you'll do!

Woah, thank you so much, buddy, that's such a hugely flattering thing to hear, no one's ever said they used my picture as a wallpaper before Hmm, yeah a lot of people really seem to love this style, I feel like I should do more of it at some point, but I don't think I can make lightning strike twice, I have doubts people would love another attempt anywhere near as much as this Regardless, thanks so much, friendo, your support means a huge deal

KenzieAlexander [2016-09-23 06:28:13 +0000 UTC]

Ah! I love the colors on this and the use of rules of thirds in the composition. Only critique I'd give though is, the tree beach shore looks a little too "natural" in comparison to the rest, you know? Everything else looks like it was done with specific tools, but that part looks more hand painted. It's a minor clash in style. But otherwise, I love it!

HashSlash In reply to KenzieAlexander [2016-09-24 15:53:50 +0000 UTC]

Wow thank you so very much for the genuine critique and compliment, I don't see them too often so it means a lot to me!  Oh yeah I can definitely see what'cha mean, I have a lot of issues with this piece as of now, I've looked into it a lot more than I'd have liked to and I just got sick of seeing all the problems, but it's a great way to learn I guess!! hahaha  but I'm really happy to know people still enjoy this, honestly, it kinda baffles me something I only spent an hour and a half on would actually be worthwhile to some people, it's really flattering and means the world to see Once again, I greatly appreciate your constructive criticism, thank you so much, and also, a huge thank you for the +Watch!! Your support means a huge deal to me and I'm happy to have you as a new friend Have a wonderful day!

Thanks so much, buddy! I always just pick random colours with my art and see which works, so I'm really glad to know I picked em out well Yes you totally should! I love seeing your art around, it's always something fantastic ^_^ Ahh I completely understand the feeling, although it's still Winter here at the moment, and for most of it, it's been a chore to draw anything without wearing gloves from how cold my hands get Thanks again, friend, I hope all's been well with you~

Kittybaka-chan [2016-08-21 21:18:42 +0000 UTC]

I really like the inspiration behind this. The colours look great, i think you did very well blocking out the shapes to keep it kind of abstract, but still convey the scene. Well done.
