2D Forever

This was created for an online magazine, Play.d

I've been doing illustrations for them and this month they asked for a Dreamcast cover! Being a big fan of all Dreamcast and Sega, I loved every second of it.
Seeing the final picture I wish I did a few things differently such as the sizes of the background characters (Ryu is way too small) but happy with the outcome.

Wow, there's a good point - where are they?! They remade Powerstone 1 & 2 for the PSP, I'm sure they could do a quick XBLA/PSN fix!

Thanks I should do another one again, there's a few bits I missed out on purpose (no crazy taxi?!) and would do so many things differently now... but I still chuckle whenever I see it.

unfortunaly like with older consoles its impossible to get the good games for them , all there is left is the crappy bass fishing and other games that nobody plays more than 15 minutes worth. I hope to get my dreamcast soon Ive been dieing to play timestalkers, sonic adventure and Doa 2 again, unfortunatly my copy of skies of arcadia is gone forever, of course I got the remakes of those games for the other consoles but you just dont get the same feeling that you do when playing on the dreamcast.

Nope, mines kept very well... Although it's technically my 2nd Dreamcast. My first one was crushed accidentally as my friend stepped on it... But my 2nd (/current one) has been going strong for many years now!

Shadows-at-Dusk In reply to 2dforever [2009-07-25 14:40:57 +0000 UTC]

Treat her well...so you never have to open her up and see whats on the inside...

(It's not technically hard to fix a dreamcast, it's just inconvenient)

2dforever In reply to Shadows-at-Dusk [2009-07-28 11:12:18 +0000 UTC]

I've opened up both of them as it goes. The 1st to see what was crushed, and the second time was to replace the orange LED with a blue one, as I've got a European (blue swirl) Dreamcast. It looks neat with a blue light

Shadows-at-Dusk In reply to 2dforever [2009-07-28 13:22:52 +0000 UTC]

I'm not fortunate enough to own a european dreamcast. No blue light for me...

2dforever In reply to Shadows-at-Dusk [2009-07-28 20:48:28 +0000 UTC]

Oh no, it was a modification. Even though they changed the logo to a blue swirl, they kept the orange light... It annoyed me so I changed it

2dforever In reply to TheSpriteMaker [2009-03-13 13:35:30 +0000 UTC]

Mortal Combat wasn't exactly a huge DC game (although I did enjoy MK4 on it myself) so I tried to keep it to either DC exclusives, or games that were big on the DC.

Great depiction. The colors are nice and I like how you put the controller right up front.

My Dreamcast is still in superb condition. I ought to dust it off and get Shenmue running again.

It is nice to see that I am not the only Dremacast fan around.
Well done with this piece. I like the fact that you have many famous Sega characters. By the way Phantasy Star Online and Spawn: In the Demon's Hand are my favourite games.
Keep up the good work.

Thanks for the nice comment -- Chances are it'll be ok for you to use this, but may I ask for what purposes? If it's for personal use on your computer, then by all means please do. If it's for anything else please let me know!

Sorry, I really should of put it in. However I never played myself, so it's not one I automatically thought of when I think 'Dreamcast'...

I'll have to grab a copy for myself one day!
