This mash-up from Raynoa depicts what would happen if a mob of vintage video game characters wreaked havoc on planet Earth.
The image stays true to retro form by carrying a pixelated look, yet accomplished in a three-dimensional style. It also holds an eclectic mix of wonderfully vibrant colors, which is an exercise for your eyeballs.
The impressive lineup of vintage video game characters includes Donkey Kong, Sonic, Pac-Man and Space Invaders. There are many more, but I'll leave them to you to find. Part of the fun of this intricately detailed piece is trying to locate and recognize the various characters. I also enjoy how not just characters, but also elements from the different games were included.
