Thx for reminding of this gem ;) Right side has also strong feeling of Henk Nieborg's awesome art for Lion Heart (together with my earlier associations) :) Aaaamiiigaaa! :D | User Comment Submitted by Jok on 1 November 2016

My favourite picture from the compo. | User Comment Submitted by Jammer on 13 April 2009
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 :) | User Comment Submitted by CreaMD on 13 April 2009 User Comment Submitted by Jucke on 13 April 2009
Wow. Very nice excecuted. | User Comment Submitted by plagueis on 1 April 2009
You are right, Jammer, the colors used on the right are my favorite part! | User Comment Submitted by Jammer on 12 January 2009
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' ;) | User Comment Submitted by v3to on 29 November 2008
@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. | User Comment Submitted by Jak T Rip on 29 November 2008
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! | User Comment Submitted by Motion on 27 November 2008
@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! | User Comment Submitted by Jammer on 27 November 2008
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. | User Comment Submitted by v3to on 25 November 2008
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...

good pix veto! like the green and blue combination! | User Comment Submitted by oys on 30 October 2008
jesus... it's multicolour! even if i dont like the motive so much either, this still kicks serious asses. | User Comment Submitted by Archmage on 27 October 2008
Not my favourite type of motive, but this is still very good use of the multicolour mode. | User Comment Submitted by enthusi on 27 October 2008
in fact it looked fli or even ifli to me at the compo (yet voted it higher than 8th :o)
format was (sadly) unknown at compo | User Comment Submitted by Style on 27 October 2008
given the format, this is awesome - shouldve placed much higher! | User Comment Submitted by Medicus on 26 October 2008
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. | User Comment Submitted by DeeKay on 26 October 2008
Me likey. Oldskoolish fantasy theme, but really great coloring and awesome details nonetheless! | User Comment Submitted by RaveGuru on 25 October 2008
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 | User Comment Submitted by Lubber on 25 October 2008
Very nice to see such a good multicolor picture these days. | User Comment Submitted by Scout on 25 October 2008
