It is really quite amazing what you can do when you put yourself into an extraordinary situation and find out that you can do more than you thought possible.
This has been a first for me when it comes to working with isometric pixel art. I found it this endeavor to be extremely challenging but at the same time very rewarding. I learned many things as I progressed. At times it was very slow like taking baby steps, but as I researched and learned more about this form of art, I started taking off. If you notice the artwork within the artwork that is located above the bed, you will find a person fighting off a dinosaur or dragon-like creature. This symbolizes to me the man’s constant effort to overcome adversity. I personally identify with this because of the many challenges life has confronted me with. The artwork as a whole took many hours to accomplish and it left me with a sense of personal satisfaction of being able to generate this pixel art. I enjoy doing this type of work, pushing myself to see what I can learn, whether it be through artwork, computer tweaking, or solving life’s never-ending problems. Though it may seem simple to others, the artwork was very difficult to generate.
I really enjoyed this project and discovered another medium for expressing myself. It was so much fun that I lost track of time. Thank You for giving me the opportunity to participate in such an exciting and self satisfying project.


I finally had time to finish the video over this pixel project(The Making of Simple Adversity, ha sounds pro). If you want to see the videos [link]

Thanks For Viewing!
