Still possess my good old CPC6128 Qwerty from 1985-86.
I found recently a 6128+ and a cpc6128 (AZERTY) at the municipal garbage, despite those being in (almost) perfect state.
This motivated a renewed CPC passion.
I try my hands on some CPC graphics with a modern PC. Exploring the possibilities of Mode 1 screen integating Rasters to get more than the limited 4 colors per screen.
Also I recolour graphics from monocolor Speccy Ports (redesigns, levels maps and mock ups) as a personnal revenge from the day I bought Black Tiger or when a "friend" laught at me telling that R-Type was so better on his Speccy +2... Bastard bitch !
I have produced some levels design for a Hermol game crack project (unreleased to this day).
And a Skin for the Color lines game (Tom & Jerry/GPA) longly supposed to be a vaporware (;-)) It was finally released in June 2010.
And you all noticed my little contribution to the Rick Dangerous 128+ double anniversary christmas 2009-2010 edition... As I spammed all the Amstrad online world with it.
Yet I suck badly at Coding...but I'm cool with that.
I'm trying to contribute to the CPCwiki and Amstrad scene, despite often badly.
And trying slowly my hands on Hardwares with my brother through Microcontrollers and FPGA chips.
