This amazing 3D pixel art from Metin Seven gives all your favorite classic video games a whole new perspective, pun intended.
Seven is a Netherlands-based artist who goes by Twitter handle Sevensheaven. The impressive 3D pixel art explores such iconic video game franchises as Donkey Kong, Super Mario, Space Invaders, Galaga, Defender, Dig Dug and Pac-Man. If you took a look at the 3D pixel art and said to yourself that you just had to have this in your living room, you're in luck. Seven sells prints of the 3D pixel art through www.imagekind.com.
Is it just me, or is there something inherently terrifying about Space Invaders coming down from a three dimensional perspective?
