It is pretty cool the amount of detail and complexity people are able to create with ASCII art using just a set number of characters. From a distance the more complicated ASCII art even looks like pointillism art. There are others as well where the image itself only becomes clearer the further away or smaller the image is from your view. Browsing through some of the images the first thing that really comes to mind is the amount of thought that had to go behind each image - having to plan out which characters to combine together to create not just the general outlines of the images but the depth and lighting as well. It's difficult enough drawing something like this but to create it through the use of pre-determined characters is pretty wild.
