I don't begrudge artists the chance to cash in, if I had the chance to get thousands upon thousands of pounds *every week* doing big-boobed fan art then I'd sell out like everyone else.

It is a shame that you don't see as much of their work anymore (cos I love Melanie Delon too) but the same thing happens when pro artists get hired to do concept art and all their stuff then gets hidden behind NDAs with the faint hope you'll see a sketch or two in a Making Of.. art book.

I'd never heard of Istebrak so I'll have a looky-loo when I get chance.
And yes, Bobby Chiu does talk a lot. I don't mind when he's talking about art but when he goes a bit further and starts sounding like a Life-Coach then I cringe a little and reach for the mute button.

Exactly!
(I was going to quote the bit abbout Chiu but then I realised I agree with everything - except I already did give Istebrak a "looky-loo")

TEST ... TEST... Just posting to see if it stops the auto subscription, from when the site was revamped and before I made the default to not receive e-mails.

While repeatedly failing with my misguided pixel art antics I groped around the Internet for inspiration/insight and stumbled on this fascinating video.
Yes, it's a bit long, I haven't even managed to watch it all the way through yet, but it's great to just dip in for 10 mins here and there.
And those colour cycling tricks are astonishing.

Interesting video. Still incredible that Deluxe Paint can still do things that nothing else can replicate properly now.

I just started watching it, literally to the point when he talks about monkey island so i’ll watch more later, but it brought back good memories, the magic of games then, no walkthroughs, if you got stuck you figured it out, or phoned the developer, which I did at one point

*sigh* I wish I could paint with this kind of freedom and imagination. *sigh again*
