Nightmare by kicked-in-teeth is a skillful pixel rendition of a famous classical piece.
Description
This was certainly a challenge!
I did this over a couple of days, I racked my brain for a few more classical art species to translate into pixel art and I suddenly remembered this and wondered if i could pull it off!
This is "The Nightmare" Henry Fuseli and it kind of struck fear into my little heart as a small child, I couldn't find the exact engraving I saw but I had a very old book about classical art given to me by my Grandmother, I probably flicked though it once or twice because looking at this made me feel uneasy!
Ah well at least I've grown!
I referenced this mostly from Thomas Burke's engraving of it, It's a very grey image and i had to take a few liberties with it, but I hope it turned out well!
