I only just found this picture, so the comment is a bit late but I saw the mag with this cover on it the other day and then just now I saw it as someone's favorite and thought "Whoa! The guy who does the cool pixel covers for EDGE is on DA!"

Okay, I'm done! Nice work

I notice you did the first UK model of the Saturn which had a black reflective strip along the front with black bottons. The Saturn I have has no reflective strip and has grey buttons. Which version of the Saturn do you prefer?

These are trully excellent, my friend. I'm really loving that Vectrex at the top. It's my favorite one out of the bunch.

What a pity, though, that the rest of the cover is quite poor and plain... but I don't know if I should go further on that, since I don't know if you're fully responsible for that or somebody else designed that cover to be that way.

Amazing pixel work, plus it brings me back to the early days of gaming. All the consoles are beautifully done with great details and wonderful line work.

I'm not sure what you think is wrong with the Amiga and the Saturn, but I think they both look perfect as is. I like how they all seem to scale with one another too. My favorite is definitely the NES though. It's got everything that a real one has with some outstanding attention to detail.

Great work again, keep on pixeling!

Mmm.... nostalgialicious.

Very very nice, I love the Commodore 64 and the Amiga. I was never allowed a console as a kid, so the consoles are all distant memories of things that my friends had, but not me. o_O

Very good work, very accurate, you've earned yourself a
