Joe style images
Years ago while looking at an image in a magazine, looking really close at the print, as the image was a still from a film, the idea hit me, that a similar idea might be possible on 64. That was around 1993. After some messing around, I gave up, and thought the idea on 64 was nuts.
Then in recent times, having seen some of Joe / WD images, and the patterns he uses to create images, reminded me of the idea above.
Today I had a mess around, and I think I hit on something that is not too far off what Joe / WD images might start of looking like. Obviously taking the idea beyond 4 colours, anti aliasing, extra polish would be the next step in the phase.
Another step might include ever more inventive patterns that fit, that generate the extra shades. |

i wont be satisfied until a coder does a pic using diagonal raster splits to create a similar work of art :) Joe's pics are getting better and better and with oys's similar styled pic recently, it makes for great competition. It's a rarity that a new style will catch my attention |

halftoning patterns and posterization arent exactly a new style though =P |

So what are you trying to say? (sounds a bit bitter to me)
It feels like you're trying to devaluate Joe's work. If you take a close look at his work from the last decade, many of those have a strong relationship to his current 'style of work'. He came quite a way to get to this stage.
This thread reminds me of yours regarding Ptoing.. Ptoing - GFX style
Hope you're doing alright, WEC? |

Oookay. I will still maintain that I'm not totally off the mark though. ;) |

archmage ? i just fail to see how some more or less well established techniques (and that for a long long time, probably pre-dating the c64) qualify as "joe style" :) |

you fail big time in distuingishing joe style and halftoning/posterizing. You could have just as said you fail to see the difference between oil painting technique and Van Gogh's style.
to conclude: you fail to distuingish style & technique. |

maybe i am. its no secret that i am no big fan of this "style". infact to me there is often little "style", and mostly boring technique when it comes to this kind of pictures. you could say they are codepron, but for gfx people =P |

The purpose of my (original) post was to highlight an idea I had back in 1993. I used Joe / WD as an example, as some of his work comes close to those ideas (technique wise, not composition wise). This in turn inspired me to experiment with what I view as, similar technique. To make things clear, my post was not intended in anyway to devaluate Joes work, as I really like some of what Joe has released over the past years :)
Joe style images was possibly the wrong title for the thread. Shader style might have made sense ;)
Ive some plans to revisit the original 1993 ideas, and if they work out, Ill release them / it ;D |
