The size of the Xbox makes it a prime candidate for an elaborate, larger-than-life steampunk project like this. The mod isn’t finished yet–the Xbox has been painted, aged, and equipped with a clock–but it’s already been through a lot to achieve this brassy look.

I’d really love to see one of those giant original Xbox controllers modded along with the console, but perhaps that will come in time. Here’s the faceplate, in progress, and in another photo at deviantART, you can see where MissLadyVenom has crafted some molding to add to the mod to give the Xbox the appearance of wooden scrollwork. The finished project is apt to be quite gorgeous indeed.

Through creative and generous application of digital blur tools, each of the images does a brilliant job blending 2-D and 3-D worlds into one.

Street Fighter

Mario Kart

OutRun

Excitebike

Donkey Kong

Mario Bros. 3

Be sure to check out the entire collection over on deviantART and tell us which is your favorite image. I’d have to say my fave is the Excitebike one, but I had a really hard time choosing.

Designed by Deviantart member allewund, the cursor set contains reproductions of every Wii cursor I can think of. Just about the only thing missing is the ability to turn the cursors over as you lay your mouse on its back.

You can download the Wii cursor pack here.
