It was the first scene that came to my mind!
Even the "Thing" outing of the depths and not of the firmament...

The way that you overcome challenges is worthy of my admiration!

"If less is more" certainly does not apply to your creativity and true perspicacity!

CONGRATULATIONS SELMIAK!

With so "little" your "Thing" was really BIG!

Addendoom
Man, I must comment that intense dusk ....
The sun retreating... like "sucking" all the light(soul)
of each element of the screen ...
While the darkness goes...slowly... covering everything.

Metaphorically fascinating!

Glad you like it

I bet this pun is even better in japanese. Everything is cooler in japanese

No idea why, but I was thinking about rhinos a lot lately and came to the final conclusion, damned, there is an animal on this planet that can ram into you and kill you with that already and on top of that has a massive horn in the middle of its face!!!

Well, here's the souvenir available to all who enter the contest:

It's a T-shirt, adapted for a monster with an extra head and few extra limbs that's been through a bit of a battle with a similar foe:

And yes: I stole the T-shirt text from Gary Larson ("The Far Side" cartoons) but firstly: It was just too good to resist.

Mainly though...

"I rose from the depths and fought an epic battle with another giant monster and all I got was this lousy T-shirt!"

...wasn't quite doable within the pixel restraints...

I<3Pindorama! · Tue 20/01/2015 19:02:26

WHAT IS IT?
You really expect me to give it to the competitors?

Mandle... honestly not...
I'm going to sell them for 10 bucks each!!!
I'll be rich !!!!
Thanks!!!

April, I do everything to have your art in this contest man...
If necessary I can even extend the deadline to Jamuary 26, 2016 !!!

AprilSkies · Tue 20/01/2015 20:02:57

I'll try my best to finish in time ^^

NOW it all makes sense!

Cassiebsg · Sat 24/01/2015 19:24:22

It does?

Anyway, wait for me... you guys inspired me! Even though my "sprite" isn't nearly as good as all yours...

Might as well use my latest 3D model here, just need to touch it up a bit.

AprilSkies · Sat 24/01/2015 20:24:15

Sure we wait \o/
(Pindo also promised an extension till 26th tho)
can't wait to see your 3D stuff

(well i already saw something, and I find it Amazing).

Cassiebsg · Sat 24/01/2015 21:48:06

Okay, done... or as much time as I'm willing to put into this... the BG city could have (needed) some better editing, to remove that green outline (I did a bit on the right side, but had no patience for the left side, sorry)...
Anyway, presenting: The most scary creature ever!!!! (for a 7-9 year old some 30 years ago anyway)

Cassie, your participation for me is more than an honor!
Thank you for gifting this contest with the insertion of your art!
It means alot to me... really!

Your thing emerged ... and I bet that is part of that TV-series that you told me, or am I wrong? A pity that there was not shown here in Brazil ... looks really exciting! And that man with the Ags Blue Cup in hand? Muito bem pensado! Ficou do car...ops...EXTREMAMENTE FIXE!

Coincidentally (or not) this was something that had passed in my mind (put someone right there).
And your character from behind looks like me some 10 years ago!

Hmmm ... ok ... I am facing in
this picture ...
But you can imagine.

April, just one t...

"...And that's the things that you say..."
...at least for me.

PERFECT!

Although sometimes the pressure is a fuel for creativity. But what I want to
say is that if there someone with a credit in the house, that person is you, man!

So... the voting time will only beginning when your "Thing" makes a nicely emerge...

Enjoy the "Thing"!

It is and it has aired in Brasil.

As for the guy, I probably wouldn't have thought of it if not for selmiak's photographer. So credit where credit is due...

Oh, I thought it was you!

Just relaxingly drinking your tea by the seaside with waving hair in the air... there was something about hair in the song too, I remember... but shampoo jut didn't translate good into this picture..

Mandle, go for it!

ROFL!!! As I scrolled down this picture flashed past and I thought "HOW THE HELL DID PINDO GET MY PICTURE UP?!"

It's so close to my WiP that it's scary...Thanks for the kindness mate on the deadline mate: It makes me even more pumped to make it in time...
