sometimes i fear all of the greatest pixel work was already done in the early 90s

was playing DreamWeb tonight and noticed this scene in a mobster's office. so much thought and careful colour choice went into this scene drawn by artist David Dew over 30 years ago:
- it is drawn from a palette of 256 colours
- the cigar is 3 pixels, with a single pixel for a flaming tip; and yet, manages to perfectly express that it is a cigar.
- the 5 pixel gun slides across the desk in a casual, yet threatening, manner

Today's @pixel_dailies prompt was "modular", and I was gonna do another Dead As Disco piece, but then I got distracted playing it, so I went with the archetypal modular assemble tool, the hex wrench.

Here's the sprite for the first aggressive enemy in MutaJelly, a very pokey farmer!
