Even More Speccy Loading Screens!

Jeepers, just when I thought I'd finished posting selections of my favourite Speccy loading screens (see the last of the five parts here), I discover yet more evidence of the awesomeness of the retro community. This latest selection of images, you see, were all created by talented Speccy fans and posted over at the 'ZX Art' page.

I've only just discovered this superb site but it's chock-full of fantastic examples of Speccy artwork. The ones I've posted here are just a random selection of ones that caught my eye and as you can probably tell, most of them are made in the style of loading screens. Some are even 'remakes' of existing loading screens.

If you've perused these gorgeous images and like what you see, I strongly urge you to visit the ZX Art site and take a look at some of the other great work there. And just for the record, I didn't make any of these myself - the name of each artist is in brackets in the filename of each image - full credit goes to them...

  2. I'm not the biggest ZX Spectrum fan (or a fan at all, really) but some of these images are surprisingly fetching.

  3. There sure are some talented artist out there. Not only can they create such beautiful images with a limited palette, but they way they work around the attribute clash boggles the mind.

  4. Yep, makes me both proud and humbled to be part of this fantastic community. Sure, sometimes some people are dicks, but stuff like this reminds me how great most are :)
