6 finger Santa...


*[N]*
I would say, the 4 finger are a bit to short. The last part should be the part of the hand. But yes, it looks like a 6 finger Santa :)

And you gave him 6 fingers as an homage to AI art? (Y/N)

The idea for this picture was the Coke Man. He doesn't actually have glasses (as far as I know), but what would Santa Claus be without glasses?
Well, and since Santa Claus is already old, he prefers a cold beer after work instead of a sugar coke.

The C64 screen should be recognizable as the background.
I started with the outlines for Santa Claus. Then I filled them with the first colors and erased the outlines with the background color, so that I could save one color.
My idea was to use the dark blue as an outline color instead of making the outlines black.
Then more and more color came into picture and finally the face of Santa Claus. Then I started with the dithering (lines and dots). Finally, the beer glass and a few corrections.

As I wanted a little music in the background but didn't have the time, I asked Yogibear if I could use one of his SIDs.
After fixing some (small) bugs in my source code and running the Exomizer over it, the release was ready.
