 Another new pic from me

Here. Take a look. It's my latest C64 pic as always recolored and converted for C+4.
This time I released in on our new website C64portal.pl. Screenshots, comparison and .prg file are there. Google translate does good job translating the article to english if you want to read something about it.

Wow! Both pictures are awesome. But IMHO it looks way much better with the plus/4 palette. wink

 Re: Another new pic from me

Just watched the compo pics on C64. IMO your pic standsout all other top ones. Even the palette choices seem to be extremely optimal for C64. The other top creators may have more C64 fame, though.. grin Or maybe they are more near to the compos original picture..

Hey, carrion! What's the official release name of your pic? Now we have two entries in our database by two different names.

 Re: Another new pic from me

The title of my recent pic on C64 is
Frenzy-Pic-Kurosawa
so I guess the C+4 could be named
Frenzy-Pic-Kurosawa+4

BTW, all the times I add attributes to the DFLI pictures pretending they're 320xsomething big, but the truth is that the usual format is 304 active pixels wide!

 Re: Another new pic from me

Hi Guys
You guys are quick... happy
I wanted to let you know about my new picture mede for C+4 (based on C64 one again) but I can see it's already here on Plus4World. Thanks for this!
Iron Maiden Unfinished

Anyway here's my blog post about the pic... and a link to other post about what this pic was supposed to be. pls follow the links in the blog post.
http://retronavigator.com/2022/03/26/iron-maiden-64-4-unfinished-again/

The interesting part might be that the C+4 version is a bit bigger (160x248 vs 160x200) than the C64 one.
Enjoy.

Oh one more thing: Another C+4 only pic is in the works. To be released soon wink

 Re: Another new pic from me

This one is great. Those lights! I am totally impressed.

I have to tell, compared to the limited palette, the C64 version also look stunning. Your color mixing method is out of this world happy

Thank you for creating our version of Eddie, the +4 version has a different mood due to the different color scheme. Somehow it is more menacing, if you understand what I mean.

Click the first link in carrion's last reply post (which is basically this one: Iron Maiden Unfinished). This will take you to the program itself. You will see (at least) two download links, click either of those to download the PRG file.

What is missing to finish it, a vertical scroller?

 Re: Another new pic from me

On his blog, carrion marked the finished/unfinished area on this picture. Don't get me wrong, this is a fantastic looking pic, but one can definitely see that the left side is a bit more plain than the rest.

 Re: Another new pic from me

I've not seen the original but to me at a glance as I never questioned it first time around... the left side of the lightning looks to be behind the head, more distant in the background so you would not necessary see the glow lol? happy

 Re: Another new pic from me

Thanks for the explanation, I had overlooked it.
Although I beg to differ on the pharaoh being a feature that much prominent.
I like the glaring ball as much, and I think the spiral galaxy on the top left provides a nice open background.
After all the pharaoh is just the face of an old ugly guy.

 Re: Another new pic from me

Thanks for the comments Guys!
It's always fascinating how audience experiences the art and how they see thing in the image somehow different that even the author planned.
Anyway... In the meantime there's another one...

http://retronavigator.com/2022/04/02/una-lanterna-magica/

This one is mine.
I'm back to pixeling mine original stuff - I guess...
Enjoy!

Very nice pics! I was about to add them to our database but the filenames are a bit odd (s4a and sf). Could you please let us know what these should be called?

 Re: Another new pic from me

Oops.. Having followed the whole coding and painting process since the C64 versions of both, I've automatically added the names used since the origins.

Check the entries and feel free to modify names, filenames or else.

 Re: Another new pic from me

Luca, Csabo
The names are OK. I would just change a description a bit. The C64 version is 160x272 not 248. But that's just the minor thing TBH

 Re: Another new pic from me

@carrion aah my bad, I read 248 but the real one is 284, that is 272+sprites. Fixed, pardon.

 Re: Another new pic from me

and ofcoz you are right that this mode allows 284 in total on c64 but I guess it's only 272 visible. happy
all in all top-bottom borders are utilized on both C= machines wink

Love the head flying over the city, has a Matrix movie feel about it and the colors are awesome! happy
As for the fairy, not as good as the ones from the game Stormlord, (C64/Amiga/Megadrive). wink
