Description from original post (created 2012-11-26 19:46):
legend tells of a mythical guardian that kept watch over the magnificent stone temple of AĂÂźtra Ă oreas. For centuries, the guardian had watched and listened for any sign of attack or infiltration. But alas, as time went on, and the roots of the great oak trees twisted and snaked their way through the aged halls of AĂÂźtra Ă oreas, the vigilant giant slowly fell into a deep sleep. Only a true warrior can awaken the stone golem from his ancient slumber.
There are a few reasons behind this skin. I'll just ratchet them off on this little list:
1: I had been checking out some of Danori's and y a n's skins. 2: I had been reading tutorials on picking colors for pixel art. 3: I wanted a challenge.
So I decided to challenge myself to see if I could make a cool looking skin using a palette of seven colors, and only seven colors. Lo and behold, a few days later, this was created.
Side note: the shading style that I used in this isn't permanent, only for this skin :). Oh, and the "Ă " in "Ă oreas" is pronounced like "ss". The more you know...
For those who can't preview: 
Thanks, guys :)
