Gustavo Viselner is a pixel artist who is working through the films of the latter half of the 20th century and turning them into pixel arr, reminiscent in style to the point and click adventure games of the 90's. Among the many films he has created pieces of work from are The Princess Bride, Forrest Gump, Star Wars and Aliens. I would definitely recommend that you check out his awesome work.
Your Bizarre Eyes
'A short story of love and devotion' is how creator Shilov describes his latest game 'Your Bizarre Eyes'. It's a melancholic piece with a striking pixel art style, it finds you playing a devoted husband as you try to help your blind wife. In practice it's a frustratingly simply but rock-hard platforming game. Give it a try, it's free in-browser!
The Simpsons Pixel Art Intro
Australian animators Paul Robertson and Ivan Dixon. have created a brilliant Simpsons Intro credits film. The intro starts off as usual but then departs from the norm as it goes into the 'couch gag.' Have a look and enjoy!
Superhero Post-It Mural
Post- It Notes are amazing, as well as providing us with a useful space to write bits of information and and sticking it somewhere to serve as a reminder, they are also brilliant as a medium for artistic endeavours. A few years ago I made a Space Invader Post-It mural to brighten up an office I shared in Phnom Penh.
Simple but effective, it certainly brightened up our office.
But this team at The Shop SF have done something remarkable. Check it out, interior decoration on the cheap and awesome!
Video Game Art Archive
This website is a gallery of pictures and paintings taken from the walls of computer games spaces. The number of pictures is still quite small as it is a work in progress. It's interesting to see the types of background images which the artists have placed, often the images are blurry and a pixelated mess due to the nature of 8 and 16 bit restrictions of 16x16 pixel canvas.
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time features pictures of Poe's
The background mural from Street Fighter 2, taken from E.Honda's level.
