I was fairly bored, so I decided I'd go ahead and load up MS Paint, make a few custom colors, and set off. I really like the limited toolset...no layers makes you think more, much like traditional. Yet there's still that damn undo =]

Anyway, this is a scientist guy finally finding the key to eternal life, or something. Those are large basins that create the stuff behind him. Yeah...hehe



I also have a timelapse (6 minutes long, ahh!) of this process if anyone wants to see it--that's highly unlikely though, as the image sucks =] But, ah well, I had fun.

And the obligatory train-entering-tunnel...




Plus a more stylized/super distorted perspective...

nifty, mj. the limitations sure work to your advantage being as these images look very unique. i like the tree the best.

Thanks guys =D

Yeah, I actually really really enjoy Paint, because it gives a nice, rich texture and forces you to put down what you want, where you want it. Plus seeing pixels is just really fun...I actually haven't seen pixelated stuff/notable gradations for some time now. Damn technology ;]

I'll probably add to this thread a bit more once I finish a few more off.

Thanks again =]

Because even skeletons feel alone sometimes...
