Last round of Videogame Classics!

That's right - this round adds it up to an even ten. Gosh, what a fun and creative time-waste that was.
First up, a hallowed classic...



I remember I actually had the idea for this one while I was traveling around. I kept thinking, "What if I could find an ancient marble statue and put a tiny worm head on it?" After all, the funniest thing about Earthworm Jim is his design. It's awesome.
So I went to the archive of Life photos (which you should all check out right now) and found a good photo to base the piece on. And the rest is Photoshop.



Ohhh... I played so much of this on the bus...



I realized as I was making this that this game was the first Zelda game I ever played. Once when I was 10, we went into a Target and they had Majora's Mask set up on a console, so I played it for five minutes while my mom shopped. It was the very beginning of the game, where the Skull Kid had turned Link into a Deku Scrub and he couldn't leave Clock Town? So for, like, two years, I thought Link looked was a weird little plant guy. Fun little trip down Memory Lane.

That's probably it on these. I have an idea for one more, but Olly Moss is probably coming after me with a tire iron as it is.

Why don't you play the game?
