Have you ever re-stumbled upon something online and gone “Whoa…yeah, I have seen this before. Coooool!” and then checked it out all over again only to slap your forehead and go “Whoa! That’s done by the same guy!?”

I did that very thing just not 10 minutes ago!

So here I was sitting at my PC reading a post over at Technabob about 8-Bit Showdown artwork. Go ahead and check out the post there, it is about an artist named Scott Campbell (can you name the different featured games?). As Technabob points out, it’s a piece that he did for the fourth annual i am 8-bit exhibit in Hollywood.

Just as a quick heads-up, the show is only on until September 7th. If you are from Hollywood or you will be in the area before then, this just might be something you want to check out.

After falling in love with Scott’s depiction of these great 8-bit showdowns, I popped over to his blog to see if there were any other pieces of work there that were of a similar ilk. I have to say… Scott did not disappoint!
