VIPs – Very Important Pixels

I was having trouble sleeping last night so I decided to pop online for a while to hunt down some visual gems. I happened upon the website of Kristof Saelen entitled VIPs * Very Important Pixels. I’ve seen similar pixel drawings of celebrities and things before, but was struck by the likenesses Kristof can achieve with little squares. Just look at that Kubrick, it’s bang on.

Being a fan of all things 8-bit (or 16-bit), these little guys provided a hilarious moment to my late-night surfing. Kristof is also hosting a contest on his Twitter to win a pixel drawing of yourself. You can BET I’m entering :)

Check out Very Important Pixels for more little guys, as well as Kristof Salen’s website.
