Thoughts are that if his real name is not Dominic Qwek then this is an invalid entry and plagiarism to boot. It would be invalid anyways, since it's an upscaled image instead of truly self pixeled.

I always prefer when one of the contest regulars calls bullshit. Gives it that "community" feel. 🤓
no upscaled photo-manip pixel art gif entries ?
this is the image that i used. Only pixel painted pixel art from scratch ?
lol , more i think about it , the more i feel it should be disqualified. Meh , 'twas fun making Dominic's Cthulu sneeze pixels nonetheless haha. shall i delete these comments and the post ?
Yes, only original pixel art made from scratch, no upscaled photomanipulations or anything. Also, if you DO use some sort of 1:1 reference for your pixelart, share the source from the get-go (i forgot this too once)
ok cool ! sounds fair ! but what do you mean by " 1 : 1 " reference ?
HERE I used an image of bugs bunny to 'trace' over with proper pixel art style. Notice how I put a link to the source beneath my pixelart. Be advised though that traced artwork will most likely never win against original content.
