I agree with 2F, the technique resembles other SIT pictures. ZTH thanks Mario van Zeist for the help on game selling in Abnormal's Illegal demo, so maybe ZTH got the picture from Mario. Possibly SIT was indeed Levi's competitor for doing the title screen. I will ask Arthur if he knows anything about it.

Well observed, Sherlock Twoflaver!


emucamp doesn't allow hotlinking. Screenshot can be found here on CSDB though: Kinky

but I see the graphic fine. It's rather a problem of a moved file I think. But thanks anyway, the colours on the CSDb pic are much better anyway. ;-)

No, you see it because it's already in your browser's cache. The rest of us get a broken image :)

I'm 100% sure its SIT.. I know, since he was part of the manchester scene (toy/jog/kernal/dolly/mik etc) , and I used to swap with people in pulsar etc who knew him.

well that was about the time armalyte was happening?

I'm trying to remember what other pics I've got somewhere that he did, maybe they were for fun rather than for commerical purposes or to just show his work like a showcase. Someone did mention the mega apoc one also, again that rings bells, he was very good at porting paper/picture artwork.

I wouldn't say they were competitors though, as SIT worked for ocean or went onto. he did the untouchables loading screen and some more. I can't recall. So far I've only found a very old pic, probably one of his better known ones.

Ok, let's re-animate this zombie-thread again.

As it seems, after three more years the original pic from SIT/STE is still nowhere to be seen. Have anybody (Chancer?) stumbled over the real image somewhere or should we try to rip it out of Kinky? I mean, it must exist somewhere in those huge collections of dumped disks?

Bump.

I've just checked through Kinky, and as it seems that the image is indeed cropped both visually and in the memory.
I have reconstructed as much as I found, but 4-5 chars is still missing from the complete image:



I still think it is a shame that an SIT image as good as this one still is missing from CSDb or located in any collection. Chancer? Motion?

I extracted it a while ago and it's indeed cropped in memory aswell. Is also stored some chars offset, probably to fix something in the VSP routine.

This was posted on FB This morning by SIT. No file linked, though:

"Hi guys. Jog of SubZero. found a disk of my old work and kindly extracted the bitmaps from it. There was a complete Hawkeye image in there. I made this as a practice piece as I was (and still am) a huge fan of Oliver Frey's artwork and wanted to do a copy. It has issues but overall at the time I was quite pleased with it. Anyway here is the full image. Thanks for caring enough to do a hunt for this for me Twoflower !!!!"
