Sneak preview new toddler book.
Inside Lady Bug
So you thought you used to play 2D games. If you had taken a look behind the screen, then you'd have seen this.
The featured game is Lady Bug from Universal Games, a classic 8-bit game for the arcades, released in 1981.
Would be great to see a series of these scenes realized as 3D pixel games or tangible designer gadgets. If anyone is interested to realize that, just get in touch with me.

Security symbols
Graphic 2D symbols that express security services, used as prints on a company car.

Hi there!

Today Metin invited me to join Clogwork. Well, I couldn't say no to my dear pixel-pushing pal, so here I am.
My name is Bjorn Nelissen and I specialise in conceptual illustration. My work is done either in acrylics or ink/charcoal.
The image above deals with AD(H)D. People with AD(H)D receive too much information (stimuli) which they can't process properly.
More work can be seen on my website: http://www.bjornnelissen.nl

Inside Galaga
So you thought you used to play 2D games. If you had taken a look behind the screen, then you'd have seen this.
The featured game is Galaga from Namco, a classic 8-bit game for the arcades, released in 1981.
Would be great to see a series of these scenes released as tangible designer gadgets. If anyone is interested to realize that, just get in touch with me. I can deliver the 3D scenes ready for rapid prototyping.
You can find my other 3D pixel artworks over here.

Inside Donkey Kong
So you thought you used to play 2D games. If you had taken a look inside your monitor, then you'd have seen this.
The featured game is Donkey Kong from Nintendo, a classic 8-bit game for the arcades, released in 1983.
Would be great to see a series of these scenes released as tangible designer gadgets. If anyone is interested to realize that, just get in touch with me. I can deliver the 3D scenes ready for rapid prototyping.
I'm planning to create more scenes like this, derived from other 8-bit classics, so stay tuned. Here's Impossible Mission.
