VIC Hunt - fcbpaint-image released at Evoke 2017

Post by tokra »

Name: VIC Hunt
Author: tokra
Released: Aug, 19th 2017 at the Freestyle Graphics Competition at Evoke 2017
Requirements: PAL VIC-20 with at least 8K RAM-expansion to view the image (+32K for using fcbpaint)

Description: A hand-pixelled conversion of a scene from the NES classic "Duck Hunt". Done in effectively 84 x 64 "square" pixels using FCBPaint.

I actually did this picture before the Vic McKracken-picture released at Revision, trying to emulate a square pixel mode on the VIC-20. Each "pixel" is 1 multicolor pixel wide and 3 multicolor-pixels high which leads to some interesting challenges when the char-color-boundaries are 4 pixels high.

Really nice to see the finished picture. Once again a fine release for the VIC-20 on a demo-party - even if "Freestyle Graphics" (with photographic works!) is presumably an even harder competition than "Oldstyle Graphics" on Revision.

The captions might 'evoke' (pun intended) questions how these comparatively high-resolution parts are overlaid, or if they even are sprites. Of course VIC-20 users know better. :mrgreen:


@tlr: any thoughts about a release of fcbpaint-0.8? Just asking... ;)
