Description I never created pixel art before so I tried for my first time tonight. Crazy huh?

Large Version:


Inspired by this photo:
by *8TwilightAngel8
The tigeress in the photo, Brytne, passed away December 15th 2011 at the Toronto Zoo by a new tiger sent from the San Diego Wild Animal Park to become her mate for breeding purposes. Sadly, these things happen and it's a chance zookeepers take. They did nothing wrong and did everything they could have done to prevent this from happening, but it an instant, a tiger can take a life. [link]


Edit: Took an hour but I finished the animation as well. PHEW!


This is for my own personal use!

This is so darn cute! You have some impressive pixel skills, too. It's way better than I could have done.

And I think it's really sweet that you used as photo of Brytne as an inspiration. She was such a beautiful, fantastic cat. I really miss her.

Yeah, it is. :3 I have never created a pixel piece before and wanted to try it since I see people create them. I want to make it animated: the tail move and the heart go up and down but that takes time....maybe I will do that and update it. :3

Thank you very much. It's not my first time doing animation in Photoshop so that experience probably made that easier.
