Video Games VS Real Life

view-3
London-based designer Aled Lewis offers up some whimsical images in his latest series, Video Games vs. Real Life. Featuring the pixelated goodness of some of the nineties’ best gaming characters juxtaposed with some fitting (and fun) real life landscapes, the images perfectly communicate Lewis’ childhood memories of the gaming world. Personally, I do remember thinking the beach course in Mario Kart 64 was pretty sweet and Lewis’ version does it justice. Scroll the gallery above and take a step back in time. Check out Aled Lewis’ website for more info and works.

RAEKWON


How rad is this little dude?! NYC’s Street Artist GROTESK, did an interpretation of Wu-Tang Clan’s Raekwon The Chef.. in 3D!!! I’ve only ever seen Grotesk’s tees and prints, as he did a lot of art for street brands like Carhartt, Only NY, Nike, Fool’s Gold, etc.

Not super fresh new, definitely one of my favorites.

AIR JORDAN “RORSCHACH” IV


Just a couple of weeks ago, Australian Custom Artist SEKURE D did his first Watchmen inspired Air Jordan 4’s custom based on the character Dr.Manhattan. Today he revealed his second pair of ‘Watchmen’ Jordan 4’s, based on the character Rorschach and to me he is the coolest character in the movie. More detailed pictures and a write up by Sekure D himself at G-street blog.
