I remember buying games and reading the manual on the bus home! At school we had an Amiga with Deluxe Paint 3. I remember being amazed by the animation feature, and 4096 colours!
@@proteque yeah this was the media studies Amiga. We also had SuperVHS cameras and an editing suite. I think one of the teachers had connections. Definitely very lucky.
Hello Amiga Friend. I was also a graphic designer for the demo scene in France the group Drifters. I learn pixel art in 1989 with my first Amiga 500 with Deluxe Paint II ! More evolved than this slightly primitive software, but thank you for making me discover it, I did not know it ! I have a lot of sadness and nostalgia for Deluxe Paint. I hope you knew him ! I would have to get back to it because I sometimes work with pixels I miss pixels is close to my experience with paint tubes and color markers. With young people it is great because they like what we were doing in Pixel Art and we can do this with Hama to ironed pearls. I invite you to try Hama pearls and Diamond Painting too ! Bye and thank you Amiga brother !
oh yes. I used to do a LOT of pearls/diamond painting with my kids when they where smaller. We made all kind of stuff, including a lot of game graphics from old Amiga games and old consoles like the nintendo and the sega. Good memories! Thanx for sharing! And I do remember the drifters I think. Will have a look later and see if I find any old demos.
Nice pic ! It only goes to show that you dont need super expensive PC and the most advanced ver of photoshop or whatever to draw a master piece if you have talent. Cant believe you were able to draw it using soft from 1987 :) Well done !
Oh, I did. Got myself copy on my emulator (I have Amiga Forever nowdays). Funny how it came to me how to use it straight after launching it, even tho it was about 30 years ago. My A600 was with me in the army with me (back in the conscript times). The fact You had Icons editor/creator was such a mind blowing thing to me as a kid. Making my own startup-sequence files... And Mod files of course. Still have collection of them.
@@hegemon8 Seems we hade the same youth :) It is strange how much time I used on making icons and background images (and later birdie themes and other hacks to make my workbench look scifi). Thanx for sharing your memories. It got me thinking I should start making Amiga icons again!

Fun times. My school had some lokal computers. And later PC. No fun in that.

You did a good job with the picture, but setting your beer on top of the computer made me nervous. 😄
Hehe sorry about that. Years of practice though. So far no broken computers! cheers!

Thank you :) It was fun. And the tool is indeed usually not a show stopper. It is usually our selves that is the limiting factor.
Impressive drawing!
Thank you. It was fun.
Thanks so much for the workflow demonstration. Is your demoscene name the same as your RUclips channel?
Is your stuff on Pouet?
Yes. My handle in the demoscene is Proteque. If you want to se demos, the group I am most active in is DHS (Dead Hackes Society) on Atari.
You've reminded me Amiga Fantavision. I was making some animations in it as a kid. Loved it. I still can't draw ...
I never tried Fantavision. Should give it a visit. Did you try a revisit yourself?
Oh, I did. Got myself copy on my emulator (I have Amiga Forever nowdays). Funny how it came to me how to use it straight after launching it, even tho it was about 30 years ago.
