Anyone who had been watching me long enough should remember my first submission of this old scrap more than a year and half back. I wasn't able to carry on completing it before because of insufficient skills.

Got back to work on this a month or two back, finally taking a stab on perspective pixel art. It turned out better than expected; much of the image is exactly as planned, including the buildings, pedestrians and vehicles (including the boat below). This is part 2 of the "life of a bridge" series. It just show the bridge surving its function, bridging two sides of a river in the middle of a city.

I'm not too happy with the buildings though, espcially the windows; it's still tough to have them fit in with the scene's perspective. I'm not too fond of the colour of the buildings either; it doesn't look desaturated enough to me.

This probably took a total of about a month's worth of working time. I don't really know for sure; I sort of lost track.



Completely done in MS Paint with 130 colours, except for image conversion, of course.

_{EDIT: How appropiate. It's almost 5-5-05 and my pageview just broke the 5555 barrier.}

EDIT (5 May): Changed colour of bridge under ~pixelblink's advice; fixed a few minor slip-ups as well. More changes to be made.

EDIT (5 May, again): Followed `gas13's suggestions on the shading, shadow dropping and minor colour change for pure white.

EDIT (7 May): Added more detailed reflections on river. That is all.
