MIST0226/KIRKMAN-X-OWL-ATASCII


 Mistigram: this nifty-galifty portrait (and logo!) of the puppet #XtheOwl from #MrRogersNeighborhood was drawn by Kirkman and placed 5th in the 2025 #ATASCII art compo of #textmode art for Atari 8-bit computers. It was also included in last month's unthemed MIST0226 artpack collection.

MIST0226 text art mosaic


 Mistigram: with the exception of a few pieces of computer music, nearly everything in the new, unthemed MIST0226 artpack collection that dropped last night is some form or another of #textart and #textmode art -- here is a sampling of specimens of #ASCIIart, #ANSIart, #ATASCII, #PETSCII and #ShiftJIS contained therein.

MIST-30/POLYDUCKS-ATTACKTOPUS


 Mistigram: flee for your lives! An enormous, enraged mollusk prepares to dismantle eight skyscrapers simultaneously in this screen, "Attacktopus", drawn by @Polyducks for last year's #ATASCII compo. This piece was included in the MIST-30 artpack celebration.

MIST-30/ILLARTERATE-HOT_BOTZ

MIST0624/ILLARTERATE-WALNUT_THE_OWL


 Mistigram: when you split a walnut in half, the interior structure of the shell can resemble an #owl face. I expect that's why this #textmode composition by @illarterate, which won 3rd place in the 2023 #ATASCII art compo, is named "Walnut the Owl". It was included in the recent unthemed MIST0624 artpack collection.
