Pretty good quality for the photo of a screen. But if so, who took it? For me it cannot be from the Amiga introduction ceremony video because I already tried to do it some years ago, and in my memories it was impossible to extract such a clean picture and so the why of my initial remark.
So a screenshot of ProPaint running in an emulator with the original file and released by the person organizing the sale? Anyway the quality is perfect and this why I think it's an image we never saw before but it's true we can see the scanlines, which is part of the image rendering for me. I'm not sure it will be the same fun without. |

..personal tangent ~ before this was done, I'll always remember Debbie Harry throwing up at a Brisbane venue (the curry shop) in '79...priceless mental image, everyone was really smashed at the time... =)

Oh indeed it was a very early alpha of Propaint which was very buggy. Seems Warhol was very fortunate that the stunt went without hitch.
I was being a bit flippant with the use of the tech of course, it was very impressive in 85 and the image itself is utterly iconic for us Amigians ![]() |

It takes time to learn and understand the new tools, and often the ones who end up making great art are the ones new to the entire art game, not the establishment. |

By Nov 1985 IIRC it was 64 EHB colours in 320x400 which is insane.

Thanks for the kind words about the interview. I am glad you guys enjoyed it. I had a lot of fun speaking with Jeff. I am still blown away that they swapped portraits and faked it for the Launch of Amiga Video. Mind blown! Jeff let me know that his official site for the collection is now live https://www.digitalandyart.com/
Enjoy! |

Could be slightly overpriced - maybe they should be on eBay!
The second article in the orignal post is very interesting. |

LOL! I wish I had that kind of coin. Maybe I will raffle off a few AmigaBill bottle opener/keychains this Sunday and see how far I get
