Description
Coins and currency from 26 different video games, with my own artistic variations on certain items. How many can you name?Click here for the complete answer list.
A couple of hints:
1) You had to "see" the currency in game. If cash magically appears in your inventory after a fight, I can't paint it (So, no gil).
2) It had to be visually different than US currency.
A special note to my regular watchers: I said that I would crank out at least one painting a month...but Video Games Live came to Tucson in March. I needed to use my meager costume skills (and painting time) to create a costume for it: Manny Calavera from Grim Fandango .
Medium: Acrylic paint on black velvet
Painting size: 16 x 20 inches
Completed: 4/3/10

Yep, you are right about rupees, nuka cola bottlecap, vial of adam, and the donkey kong coin...and there is indeed a coin from Pokemon (Meowth's coin from his payday attack).
Feel free to use Google or help from other folks to get the others (I used some REALLY obscure games).

Thank you, glaringkitteh! I tried to mimic the original source image as best I could (note the FPS feel of the FPS currency in the upper right of the painting).
Thank you so much for faving and watching me. I'll try to keep my works entertaining.
