Well, well, well what have we here… is it a pixel art cover on the latest issue of Amiga Addict, by jove it is!
Now there’s a little story associate with how this cover came about. I’d already worked on a version of this image to be used as a background for a new Pixel Portrait product for my shop, I hadn’t quite finished it but it was enough to get the general idea.
Jonah (AA Editor) emailed me and asked if I would be interested in helping out the magazine with a cover. Of course immediately this “Grenade Hut” image came to mind and after a brief exchange we ended up with the idea to have Jon Hare any myself on the front cover in Pixel Portrait style.
The final version of this artwork will be available to purchase from my shop in due course for anyone that may be interested.
