Retro Game Graphics Invade the Real World



Lee Vidal’s PhotoShop experiments produced the following ideas, which place retro graphics in real life scenarios.

Retro Lake Mario Bros Retronoob

It’s a nice, simple idea – one that is obvious in some ways, but I haven’t seen it before.

On the one hand, the designer in me would revel in the ease at which the pixellated graphics could be cut out cleanly to be superimposed on a photographic background. On the other, there could be a challenge in combining the blocky, retro bitmap style with the realistic photographic image.

Lee, under the moniker RETROnoob does a good job though.
