@Si Borg - thank you so much for those kind words :D .  Yes, those amazing people you mention (and a few more mentioned in my preamble) were my inspiration and, without a tutorial by a chap called @AFG - I would never have attempted to do a portrait. 
 
Just shows that if you try, persevere, get help from some of the very helpful people on this forum, do as many tutorials as you can, you will make hay in end.  (As you've found out ... judging by your steampunk entry).

And, finally ............. thank goodness for the Plugin developers on here who have created some very handy tools for us to use.

Knowing how tedious pixel art is...color me impressed. That's pretty fantastic o-o

Thank you @pdnNoob - it took many hours to paint each frame.

 

@Toe - yes, I did get the "inspiration" for the owl from an animated work.  I get a lot of ideas from art on the web.  I did, however, paint every frame I used in a different colour (as you can see from the example) and it took hours.  I would never have copied and pasted someone else's work as you are suggesting.

Ok, fair enough. Thanks for explaining; it looked rather suspicious. ;)

(September 25th, 2023)  Sorry about any broken images in my posts. I am aware of the issue.

Sooooo - I'm taking a break from Ultra Fractal 5 and am back to PDNing again.  It really does become part of one's life after so many years.  My latest Perfume Bottle:

@Helen - Thank you ...... we sure have that in common aka the bling and perfume bottles :D .

 

Thank you @BBQ - wot you said :) it rhymes beautifully - you are very poetic!

 

Hey @Dryda ....... thanks so much ;) .

 

Actually I was not sure which image to post ........ the one I did, or the first one without the third tier of bling.

Like so many of you on here, I know it's always tough to decide on which one to post.

This is a wonderful quality - devotion ( or loyalty, dedication - I don't know how it's right in English)

 

Like so many of you on here, I know it's always tough to decide on which one to post.

 

I say, post them all, Pixey! Really, your work is just beautiful!

 

Pixey, each of your work is a masterpiece, which pleasing the eyes. So I agree with Helen.

Very nice blingy bottle Pixey! I really like all the 'gold' work. Very intricate.    :)

That's a real complicated perfume bottle you got there.

 

Mind making a tutorial with a simpler version of the bottle design for us folks who would wanna try it?

 

And nice comeback too!

Pixey...correct me if I'm wrong, but is the 'gold' work on your bottle a variation of barbieq's 'Making a jewel' tutorial? If it is, a very creative adaptation of that tut!    :mrviolet:

@Ishi & @Seerose - Thank you so much.  Yes, I would be very happy to make a tutorial based on this Bling Bottle - so, it's now in the pipeline :P .

 

@lynxster -  I used the premise of @BBQ's tute in using the "Circle Text Plugin" idea, but I used another method for making the gold - it is based on a tute by Sarkut (who is no longer around) which has lost all of it's pictures, but a method which works well for thicker lines.  Hopefully I will be able to 'insert' his XML file into the tute, to use with Gradient Mapping :/ .

Yes, Sarkut's method works very well on larger areas & different thicknesses whereas the method I use works well on areas that are thinner & more uniform in thickness.
