| veto's main strength is that he avoids dithering but at the same time he gives every object strong sense of texture thus colour areas are not plain :) look at the right bottom for example :) |

| btw., the right side gives me almost amiga'ish feel. reminds me the technique from 'lemmings 2: the tribes' intro or 'lure of the temptress' ;) |

@Jammer:
It is just a matter of personal tradition. Initially the biggest influence on this style were the works of Michael Kosaka (e.g. Skate or Die, Budokan or Sentinel Worlds). I was totally impressed how good his gfx look even with very limited dithering. I tried the same way and decided to abandon dithering at all. That was before my first public release - about 1988/89. Right from the start the reactions were controversial but IMHO it was a good decision. |

No way to hide your roots :)
This absolutely has the spirit of a game.
I also like the look the boy throws at his father.
Nice and looks alive! |

| @Jammer: Read this Portrait for more info. I think Veto has always been unique. There's a great deal of warmth, both visually and emotionally in this piece. Excellent work! |

| lack of dithering really disturbs me and gives me a felling of watching a convert. similar impression when i saw your portrait for the first time. |

Thanks for all comments. I am really pleased and also surprised. In fact the picture was not intended to be some kind of game-intro-picture. Cannot hide my roots I suppose...

| Not my favourite type of motive, but this is still very good use of the multicolour mode. |

| Looks to me like an intro-picture to a full-price game many years back... and this is meant in the most positive way possible. |

| Very nice oldskool piccy. Looks like it was made for a sequel back in the 80's. (If the game hade this kind of graphics I'm sure I'd played it thru) =D |
