ZX Screens A-Z: SuperTed
Reason: Sometimes, simple is all you need.

ZX Screens A-Z: Macbeth
Reason: Simple yet so effective.
#ZXSpectrum #ZXScreensAtoZ #PixelArt
ZX Screens A-Z: Game Over
Reason: Filth.

ZX Screens A-Z: Don Quixote
Reason: Lovely screen with Don and Sancho lit by the moon's light casting deep blue shadows. No windmill though 🤔

ZX Screens A-Z: DJ Puff's Volcanic Caper
Reason: Lot going on here, but I particularly like the General (or Cinema Commissionaire) with his gold braiding and epaulettes. Good leather jacket, snake and background complete with hanging vines.

ZX Screens A-Z: Dizzy Prince of the Yolkfolk
Reason: Although a bit of colour-clash, there's lots to love here: the bounding ribbon, door-arch, the view, etc. My favourite part, however, has to be the left door - just a single red line.

ZX Screens A-Z: Diamond Mine
Reason: At first glance a rather simple pic, but I love the lettering and the subtle use of magenta and the BRIGHT attribute for the rocks which give this image real depth. Also, just look at those eyes. Genius!

ZX Screens: Crimbo
Reason: Just a jolly colourful Christmas picture. Love the snow-covering on the lettering and the sky going from blue-cyan-white. Makes me want EggNog.

ZX Screens A-Z: CJs Elephant Antics
Reason: What a wonderful screen! The detail in the clouds, the eyes, the rosy (and not so rosy) cheeks, the dog, the bombs, the ANTICS font and is that an explosion next to some mushrooms? Packed with fun.

ZX Screens A-Z: Casanova
Reason: Just wow! Excellent depth here - fore, mid and background. Also, look at the textures for his clothes, mask, face and wig - all different, all work perfectly. Not a bit of this image I don't love! 10/10

ZX Screens A-Z: Carrier Command
Reason: What a dynamically composed, single-point perspective image this is. Everything is moving. Pick your view point and everything is either rushing in or popping out of the screen! Static, yet In motion!
#ZXSpectrum #ZXScreensAtoZ #PixelArt
ZX Screens A-Z: Brave Starr
Reason: Okay, he has a veeery long right thigh, but look at the shadow work! Also, the framing appears to be the subject of the piece here - there's very little going in the centre of the picture.
#ZXSpectrum #ZXScreensAtoZ #PixelArt
ZX Screens A-Z: Batman - The Caped Crusader
Reason: A very busy screen included for The Joker and his maniacal laugh framing the action.
#ZXSpectrum #ZXScreensAtoZ #PixelArt
ZX Screens A-Z: Atic Atac
Reason: 1983, mere months after the machine's release and this screen hints at wizards, spells, trapdoors and monsters. Lovely collection of images in one place.

ZX Screens A-Z: Aspar GP Master
Reason: Incredible use of colour and the bright attribute without being too garish. ASPAR lettering wonderful!
