First, I drew a grid that would be a guide for my color-cycling landscape, and used several shades of tan all in the same row on my palette, so when I cycled them, the ground would appear to move.

Then, I added the mountains to the back-ground, far in the distance, so they wouldn't interfere with the illusion of movement.

Next I traced the hotdog from my sketchbook onto the screen, and laid in the basic colors using the Fill option. Then I used a single-pixel brush to create shading and reflections.

After about an hour or so of tweaking and fine-tuning, the image was finished - just in time to get home for dinner.

First, I roughed out the picture using Line-Draw and Fill.

Next, I blocked in major areas of light and shadow.

Third, I switched to Freehand Draw and "loose pixel" brushes, and modified the color palette.

Finally, over two more days, I worked on the details using Magnify-Pick Position mode to complete the image.
