Boris Vallejo and the Pixel Art of the Demoscene | Marin Comics

Boris Vallejo is an epic fantasy painter, who has had an immense influence on fantasy book covers, computer game box art, and even the demoscene. Throughout the decades, his works have often been replicated by pixel artists, leading to controversy. I rediscovered Vallejo's great work for myself, looked into the demoscene's love for his pictures and decided to recreate one of his paintings using only four colors and record it on video. My little article here features fantasy art history, demoscene drama, and a lot of pixel art fun.
