MIST1024/PIZZATOE-JACKEY-SCREAMING_SKULL


 Mistigram: a synthesis of #ANSIart and #ASCIIart, all you need to know about this #skull is that it's all scream. Is that curly hair or are its soupy brains being expelled from its cranium under high pressure in an evaporated form? It was drawn as a creepy guest appearance by our main liaison with the new Pizzatoe computer art community, Jackey, and was included in the spooky MIST1024 artpack collection released one year ago.

MIST1024/US-KILLER_TOMATOES


 Mistigram: Originally intended as vegetarian menu art for the IMBIBE01 food-themed e-mag, Cthulu adapted the poster to the 1978 B-movie #AttackOfTheKillerTomatoes to #ANSIart with help from LDA and Moth. It was included in the spooky MIST1024 artpack released one year ago.

MIST1024/PIZZATOE-MOMO-HALLOWEEN_SORCERESS_UNDER_THE_MOON


 Mistigram: this witchy #ANSIart cutie, surrounded by tiny details (the bats traversing the full moon, the flaming jack 'o lantern in her hand!) was drawn by Momo of the @pizzatoe computer art crew as a guest appearance in last year's spooky MIST1024 artpack collection.

MIST1024/LITTLEBITSPACE-THE_LAST_GAMBIT


 Mistigram: this #PETSCII illustration by @littlebitspace, 'The Last Gambit', presents an existential scene, all of us kings in our games of #chess, all doomed to #checkmate. This piece was included in the spooky MIST1024 artpack collection released one year ago.

MIST1024/PIZZATOE-AMY-QING_ZOMBIE


 Mistigram: this #ASCIIart illustration of a #jiangshi or 'hopping vampire' of Chinese folklore (and beloved of Hong Kong cinema) was a guest appearance by Amy of the Pizzatoe computer art crew. It was included in last year's spooky MIST1024 artpack collection, resplendent in its Qing dynasty traditional garb. There's a rumour about that @Pizzatoe may soon be dropping their first artpack, so we're hoping to schedule these posts to roughly coincide with their debut.

MIST1024/LITTLEBITSPACE-VITRUVIAN_MAN


 Mistigram: #LeonardoDaVinci used his #VitruvianMan design to model ideal human proportions, but @littlebitspace found there was still one small area for improvement, and stripped the obfuscating flesh from those big, beautiful bones in this #teletext adaptation, included in last year's spooky MIST1024 artpack collection.

MIST1024/CODEFENIX-GOING-SO-SOON


 Mistigram: Codefenix must have been meant for this #ANSIart screen to adorn Constructive Chaos BBS' logoff screen, but the accusing boney finger of the spectre of death is applicable to all viewers everywhere.  It was included in last month's spooky MIST1024 artpack collection.

MIST1024/ILLARTERATE-MUDMON


 Mistigram: this little yellow (it says green but I think they left out the blue) mud man must hail from the West Midlands, and not Jamaica as I initially suspected.  He was drawn in #teletext by @illarterate, and included in last month's spooky MIST1024 artpack collection. (What's so spooky? His dry cleaning bill!)

MIST1024/CJY-JPNOGRE

MIST1024/LITTLEBITSPACE-INTERPLANETARY


 Mistigram: this #textmode art screen by @littlebitspace, "Interplanetary", figured prominently in last month's spooky MIST1024 artpack collection, because... wtf! So there's a cosmic conjunction of celestial spheres, fine! But what's up with the colossal, planet-sized skull? Is there an immense headless torso somewhere out there in orbit around Jupiter? Does the skull have a molten core, an atmosphere even? Every answer opens the door to weirder questions.
