This, right here, should be in an art gallery! It's a testament to the practice and patience it takes to produce such an unbelievably gorgeous work of art. Simply stunning!

Cant believe the resolution was 666, looks way more bigger. What a good piece. I'm not looking for this specific art here but when you zoom it, it looks spectacular and have that pixelated "vibes" in there. Great job!! 10/10

Even the resolution has meaning behind it. Wow. Normally I always say stick to lower resolutions and anything above around 128x128 isn't really pixel art but pieces like this always prove me wrong. I love seeing these amazing pieces come together where each pixel still matters but it's part of something so detailed.

Beautiful and grisly.  I like the story we can imagine about the smoke rising in the distance, the bodies under the ground, and the crows.

Wow, this is incredibly detailed. I absolutely adore the composition here. The way the smoke fans out from the buildings in the distance guides your eyes towards the top of the image, at which point the birds' flying formation round out the composition and create a very nice semi-circular arc. The clouds look amazing, and the ancient unearthly eldritch horrors beneath the ground look nice too. Perspective is used to great effect here, which I really do like. Overall? A fantastic and incredibly detailed piece that I'm sure took boatloads of dedication.

Thank you for analyzing it so deeply. I wanted to make it as unsettling as I could, so I decided to make a few contradicting choices to create tension. The complementary scheme of greens and yellows with purples and magentas is one. The dynamic spiral composition clashes with the static composition of three even horizontal segments. There is also a contrast between flatness and depth, emptiness and horror vacui, nature and industry, life and death... probably I could find some more, I don't know.

Same as the previous one. Pixel whenever you have time and strength and after few months it is done. Next one should be finished in January... I hope.
