Old ANSi Artwork - Nathan Phaneuf / King Midas

I'm going to post some of the art I did when I was 15-17 years old - back when I was a full fledge computer nerd. This is before the web came about and we would utilize our modems to call into BBS's. these are the graphics you would see on those sites.

Not sure how to long story short this - but I got involved with making artwork for BBS's and eventually joined a group of local artists. As my art got around I was recruited by ACiD (see Rad Man - he still has a big online presence), a national art group. Anyhow this art was my life for this short period of time.

Here's a detail of one of my pieces (1996?)

And here is the full image (keep in mind this is small because we had much less resolution back in the day - and only 16 colors to work with!)

Just to show you how dumb I was at 16, here is the tag at the top of the graphic (my handle was King Midas)

I'll post a few more of these.
