SmartBoi Color (hello Dribbble!)

Well, hello Dribbble!

First of all, thanks @eldelentes for the invite —you forced me to adopt again the mindset of sharing bits of work with others once in a while 💪

Before posting some of my recent work (mostly UI), I wanted to have a little fun with my debut shot. Turns out I recently found my old Game Boy Color, and the object itself is just super eye-candy; I felt like I wanted to draw it and tweak it a bit.

So, the final result is a spin-off of a GBC, with some enhancements from a modern smartphone. The six icons on the 'home screen' are my favorite games from when I played with this thing all day long :)

Do you recall any of the original covers of these games? It was fun turning those into simpler, iconic forms!

Anyway, I hope to hit your nostalgia nerve with this one; nevertheless I will be publishing more 'formal' work on future shots —see you around!
