I don't remember who but someone already showed me some kind of documentation about Hal Lasko.
I remember his art in 02:10 and 06:31 which I really like, but e.g. 0:30 or 4:53 are also really beautiful.

His pictures are just wonderful and the fact that he did this with pixel art via MS Paint and that he is 98 years old really makes me respect him.
He's outstanding.

Thanks for sharing :D

It's nice to see someone in the medium of pixel art who has an own style and isn't just emulating the aesthetics of the late 80s and early 90s video games. Not that there would be anything wrong with that, but it is refreshing to see.
  • former Manasource Programmer
  • former TMW Pixel artist
  • NOT a game master

Please do not send me any inquiries regarding player accounts on TMW.
