i'd like to think this image's name is so beautiful, it cant be expressed in words, and makes your heart ache because of it.

My entries from the last thread. I'll make some more in the coming days. Done freehand on my tablet with a reference picture on my desktop, except Feel the Magic and Ninja Gaiden, which were done with a mouse.

Your stuff is ace though. I hope that you show up mid-thread and drop justice upon us all, when you DO have the time.

I was stuck on that one forever as a kid, until I learned that you could hide under the platforms.

I never had a problem with the Sonic 1 bosses, but it took me like 16 years to beat the Metropolis Zone boss in Sonic 2 :lol:

MSPaint on Windows 7 aint really shitty anymore, so there might be some quality looking art.

Is it really that different though? I know the layout has completely changed but it still seems to contain the same features. However being a klutz at drawing I don't know what to look for to definitively tell one way or another.

Hey, maybe Pureauthor has finished his piece by now. You've had since the last topic to get it done, that's plenty of warning! :lol

(Right topic this time, hopefully...)

....well, alright then, here's a quick one:

Recreation of the final boss battle in Wario Land for the Virtual Boy. In honour of DavidDayton who did it first in the previous topic I decided to make a smaller stereoscopic version to fully recreate the wonderful* Virtual Boy immersive experience. Just cross your eyes and capture the magic for yourselves!

Seiken, you might want to safe your stuff as gif or png. It's good wrk but that jpeg compression really ruins it.
You're right :( They're already ruined now though :lol
