Weekly Roundup 09 May 2016

Last week's update didn't happen as I had a lot on at work, and was only working on one project, so I thought I'd consolidate my news this week, because EFFICIENCY!

​The first update is that I went to The Star pub in Surrey to see my artwork on the wall! I've written more about it here, so please check it out if you have a minute!

Now to the beads! I've started a little gaming series of box art backgrounds with sprites on them. Here are the ones I've done so far:

There are more to come, and once they're framed they'll be ready for the next London Gaming Market in July.

The other gaming stuff I've done involved revitalising a few old pictures:
Mega Man stage select pixel bead art
Double Dragon pixel bead art
Silent Hill nurse pixel bead art
The Mega Man stage select screen was kind of floating precariously in the frame, so I mounted it properly on some card. I didn't like how the Double Dragon picture looked, so I added a mount to spruce it up. The Silent Hill nurse needed a new background, as the old one had somehow gotten damaged, so I replaced it and put it in a better frame.

But the main project was a big one that took up all of last week. 9 hours' work and approximately 12,000 beads went into my new version of Marilyn Monroe in a Dwyane Wade jersey:

That's all you're getting of her for now, as I'll be making a more detailed post about it soon!
