Description: The Gameman 6000: This piece was made to embody the original Gameboy. The Gameman 6000 is about the size of a small computer. Nintendo, which made the Gameboy, is a company which paved the way for future generations of consoles. To fit the Floridian theme, I designed stickers that I believe represent Florida, such as palm trees, shovels, the sun, and a beach ball. I used many items in the making of this- such as cardboard for the base, a picture frame for the screen, and finally clay and bottle caps for buttons. I also used wire for the perimeter of the screen and painted it gold. The game is an original flight game that was going to be pixelated, but I strayed from that style in my painting.
