A concept Illustration by Jamie Bryan based on the Nintendo Switch Game Console, produced in lockdown 2020. A world away from our world, a living breathing environment where nostalgia run's wild at the sound of the 'click'. Can you find Pixel Toad?
The entire illustration exists on an isometric grid, allowing for structure and rigidity familiar to some of the games included in the artwork. This method of working is logistical, building up landscapes using angles and gradients was perfect for showing traditional location snippets from Mario or Bomberman.
The Illustration once completed was Brought to life by Animator Jason Fisher, working in isometric landscapes becomes difficult when movement is involved as characters and sprites need to be illustrated from all angles - Jason was limited to static characters but resolved this by using clever movement and motion paths.
