+pboland Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 I just want to show what I was able to do with some Odyssey2 artwork. These large framed pieces are similar to the ColecoVision ones I did in this topic: ColecoVision Mr. DO! Poster & Maybe More... I know that this is not a very popular system but, it is a favorite of mine. Again, the images in the frames are not 100% like the box art. I made a few minor changes to the way I wanted to be shown. These are currently hanging on my basement wall along side some of the coleco ones I made. In the picture I show the actual game boxes next to the framed prints for size reference.

+pboland Posted July 20, 2010 Author Share Posted July 20, 2010 Very pretty. Quest for The Rings wold be amazing! I agree. I'm trying to figure out just how to do that now. I won't be able to do the gold lettering however. Limitation of my printing ability. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+pboland Posted July 21, 2010 Author Share Posted July 21, 2010 Very pretty. Quest for The Rings wold be amazing! Okay. It took some work but I got it done. Let me give a little background to why the image is not 100% the same as the box. I want to make the Quest for The Rings as a poster size (30 inch x 20 inch). I've done this before with a coleco ad which you can see here: Very Large ColecoVision Poster! 30inch x 20inch poster! In order to do a Quest for the Rings that large I had to scan it in at very high res. The standard size ratio of the box doesn't work well for the 30"x20" ratio. So, I had to crop the top and add a new title into the image. My box for this game is kind of beat up so, I spent a lot of time "repairing" the image. Here is the scaled down web version (I'm hoping to order the poster soon ): One more thing: I can't do gold text but I think the title is close enough. Looks more like stone to me than gold but, I think it still works. Let me know what you guys think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Video Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 Odyssey ^2 may not be one of my favorite systems (or anywhere close to one) but I do love the art fro many of the old 8 bit era systems. Framing some of it would be totally awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+pboland Posted July 25, 2010 Author Share Posted July 25, 2010 (edited) It´s look amazing, this cover was one of reasons I decided by an Ody. I think the OD2 has some really cool art. I'm thinking about doing a "Conquest of the World" poster as well. On a side note: With all the classic video game art I have been doing, I decide I going to put up a website for it all. I just purchased the URL but I haven't had the time to put anything up on it. Once I get something up, I will announce the URL.
