@hedning: Thanks for digging up the reference pic!
I also found a reference to another gfx release that ranked high at a gfx competition while there was no mention of using a reference at all.
Its this release: Canned Heat
you can find the reference here:

The process:

While the end result is nice it is very disappointing that there is no mention about using the reference.
It seems to be the most common approach to use reference pics or AI and not mention anything about it. Credit should be given to the original artist and not taken by the one who converts/repixels it. | User Comment Submitted by TPM on 25 November 2024
why ended this at #3th place at Mysdata? | User Comment Submitted by leonofsgr on 25 November 2024 User Comment Submitted by CopAss on 24 November 2024
another conversion...shame | User Comment Submitted by chatGPZ on 24 November 2024 User Comment Submitted by Oswald on 24 November 2024
yeah and next time dear Graphicians when you see a coders debate about anim vs realtime think about this picture ;) | User Comment Submitted by 4gentE on 24 November 2024
Man, I suggest you use “AI” prompt-to-image next time. It’s even easier than doing this. That way: (1) reverse image search will yield no evidence of theft, (2) you don’t have to bother with removing watermark and (3) you can claim that you’re the original artist.
BTW Quote:I agree AI and converting tools become very good to achieve great results.
I don’t. | User Comment Submitted by Slaxx on 24 November 2024
Removing the watermarks, mirrowing the picture, some color correction and another sky in the original...

Converted and some pixels edited = #3 in the compo.
Man, you could have at least corrected the bowstring! | User Comment Submitted by Luca on 24 November 2024
What Joe and grasstust said, 1st place at Pixels Selection compo. This doesn't overshadow your noble effort, tho, so congrats.
What really worries me is the jury – I don't know if there's an official panel or a popular online voting system – which either doesn't recognize what's actually watching, or doesn't keep in count this notable POV. | User Comment Submitted by bodo^rab on 24 November 2024 User Comment Submitted by hedning on 24 November 2024 User Comment Submitted by grasstust on 24 November 2024
I love that you're trying your hand at 'them pixels', and it absolutely does not look bad. The problem, as I see it, is that you're actually breaking the compo rules for Mysdata - it clearly states NO COPIES. When posting such a pic, I would always give credit to the original artist/photographer/source and also post the original picture. Also, I would include work stages (something also stated in the rules). So just keep doing them pixels and for "$"#$"# sake, keep composing 'them tunes'! :) | User Comment Submitted by Shine on 24 November 2024
"... all these pixels has been carefully selected ..."
Well, no offence here, but i can understand the doubt from Joe aswell.
Maybe a few worksteps would help out, what is no 100% proof of course. | User Comment Submitted by Joe on 24 November 2024 User Comment Submitted by Magnar on 24 November 2024
So you think I only used a tool to convert a image to kolalapic and that was this output? I can honestly say that all these pixels has been carefully selected, but you are right about that the reference point was a picture from google. Is it wrong to work in this way? Apparently you think so. But yourself is doing pictures of buildings and streets where you also taught from references. Is it so much different to use my way of working it out than yours?
I agree AI and converting tools become very good to achieve great results. I still stand by this is not just a rip off. But you may be have your opinion and I my own as I spent hours on working with the picture at different stages and that is.a process I enjoy. I never say I am a good pixel artist, I just do what I enjoy and share it. Maybe paying a model is what is needed to do to get your approval. But anyway, either you can enjoy it or you think it is awful. I just care about my own process and I find it like meditation to work with these pixels my way. | User Comment Submitted by Joe on 24 November 2024
Ripped artwork from Shutterstock. Wow. It does bring the whole feeling down right then. |
