The sun has been made into the last torch. To fuel the last train, heading for a sanctuary in the farthest corners. Around them, the remnants of the once great powerful civilization, swallowed by the green mist that caused this calamity.

Imma one up myself:

”Hell. That is what remains. Slowly our train runs, its fuel slowly depleting. We cannot outrun the mist. We cannot reach the end. The tracks stop soon. The heat, our sun forged into a torch by ancients, is what is left of our light. Our civilization, no matter how glorious, has fallen to time. The Kings below have come, with their Meanwhiles and Neverweres, with their Somethings and Nothings, to rule this world. And we can only pray.”

I’ve been wanting to improve my art skills and so I decided to do the last art challenge, with the “WOYGAB-24-PROTOTYPE” palette:

 ![Red Robot](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/3X/f/5/f5d91cab5dbc7dfb66d778f5e03896f68b973378.jpeg)

I drew it with the online site [Pixilart](https://www.pixilart.com/draw?ref=home-page#).  
This image is my own art from a game I’m making for the [Outdoors Jam](https://forum.makecode.com/t/announcement-makecode-arcade-mini-game-jam-34-outdoors-jam/42463)

I’m really proud of it, but what do you guys think? Is it good for one of my first pixel art images?

Using my own Wild West palette, I created this:

If @Luke isn’t doing this can I suggest one? If so then:  
Palette: Anything!  
Resolution : Whatever!  
Theme: Health bar  
Design a lovely health bar with a sprite profile, life and more stuff like armour, weapons selection, map etc. I’m bad at picking themes, okay?

I was literally going to show that but I didn’t want hints, just wanted to see pure art. Because I’m doing it, everyone might be battling for 2nd: @Luke can compete… Also Brandon James Greer is my favourite artist, along with Pixel\_Architect and Pixel\_Overload. I hope people join. Are you joining @Luke?

Art you created, like not **AI** art or image-to-sprite generated, art you created by yourself. Also not copied art @ **Copy** Sprite! You also -sadly- reminded my of my exams. I’d better go.  
_rushes straight to exams that started 5 days ago_ (joking) but I do have exams as well. Oh No.

I finished this up real quick.

- The count on the bottom is for seeds, the currency
