Mistigram: a riff on the X-Files' #IWantToBelieve, this animated #DurDraw piece of #textmode art by MC Fresher depicts an alien abduction captioned with "I Want To Leave". This piece was included in the new science fiction-themed MIST0525 artpack collection.
The Mistigris0525 sci-fi ANSI artpack ... "I hope you relish it as much as I"!
(I contributed one piece, "Balok," a collaboration with LDA).
Today I'm trying to push the boundaries of what pixel art means by combining pixelated ASCII art (thanks to the excellent #jgs font by @adelfaure ), pixelated ink illustration and "hand drawn" glitch effects. 200 × 400 pixels, 2 colors. #cephalopod for #pixel_dailies #calamar #squid #ink #illustration #experimental #glitch #digitalart #mixedMedia #1bit #warmGrey #ASCIIart #textmode #pixelart #ドット絵 @pixel_dailies
