Deluxe Paint Pictures

I've been rummaging through some old floppy disks on my Commodore Amiga recently and have been looking at some old pixel art drawings I did years ago.  They're pretty naff compared to some of the work I've seen done on the Amiga, but these are my very own dating all the way back to 1993 and I remember being rather proud of them.  I still am.
 
All were created on my Commodore Amiga 500 and hand drawn pixel by pixel using the excellent Deluxe Paint III and IV between 1993 and 1996. Remember, I only had a screen resolution of 320x256 and 32 colours, or 640x512 and 16 colours to work with.
 
Just click on the pictures to enlarge and view them in all their full blockiness.
 
Aft Stations - 1993
 
Aliens (based on a pencil drawing I did) - 20th May 1995
 
The TNG Bridge - 29th October 1995
 
The TNG Bridge - 31st December 1993 to 1st January 1994 (I remember doing this on New Years Eve)
 
The TOS Bridge - 2nd December 1994
 
Control Room - 5th March 1994 (Based on a picture I saw in a Commodore magazine)
 
Docking - 1993 to 1994.  This was the first proper picture I started working on using D-Paint.  It took me awhile to get it perfect.
 
Galileo Shuttlcraft - 16th April 1995
 
Country House - 24th July 1995
 
Star Trek/Wars - 31st March 1996
 
Lt. Jadzia Dax by me and Steve Ready - 28th July 1994.  I was never happy with the face, but the rest was good.
 
Engineering - 1993
 
Deep Space Nine and Runabout - 20th to 26th June 1994.  Gosh, I needed some tips from JJ Abrams on how to do decent lens flares.
 
Star Trek Generations - 2nd February 1995.  The Enterprise was scanned from the TNG Technical Manual if my memory serves me correctly.
 
Star Trek Generations - 30th January 1995.  Simple but effective use of colour gradiants in D-Paint.
 
Stargate - 1995 - Another simple picture that didn't take me long to do, but I think it came out really well.
 
The Flintstones - 3rd October 1993
 
AND finally a couple of stills from a video I did years ago with some early green-screen effects on my Amiga, featuring a rather young (and thin) me.  Blimey these are 20 years old.  I feeeeeeel old.
 
Stuart on Eminiar VII - 1996
 
Stuart on Delta Vega - 1996
