Made for an art-jam on Itch The goal was to design a non-existing, handheld console so I wanted to make something that looks like an early 80’s handheld (coiled cord and all baby!). My goal wasn’t to make something pretty but rather something that a product designer at a company akin to Tiger Electronics could potentially have dreamt up after a weekend coke-bender in the 80’s/early 90’s Besides the video game being displayed on the console screen, all the other shaders are procedural I decided to go for a ultra-worn look despite changing my mind while setting up the shots to do something more like a product/ad render. So here are 4 full-page magazine spreads! The X-STATION is on sale now, just not in this universe! And always read the fine-print before making a purchase no matter how good of a deal it seems to be ![Page1_2.1.1](https://blenderartists.org/uploads/default/original/4X/a/4/c/a4c43b62eecd9fba6827b228b6f4be08a25ecae3.jpeg) ![Page2_2.1.2](https://blenderartists.org/uploads/default/original/4X/5/2/f/52f5d395c762f08e37e6ee4b799814d8795e4b7d.jpeg) ![Page3_2.1.3](https://blenderartists.org/uploads/default/original/4X/5/e/4/5e4b421374af88b22bd035f1fe823cdf13c7aa06.jpeg) ![Page4_2.1.4](https://blenderartists.org/uploads/default/original/4X/9/3/b/93b62dcc8f237c99a8df8688f8385021cac2ad5f.jpeg) ![viewport_compare](https://blenderartists.org/uploads/default/original/4X/6/6/5/6654756e0c8caeb696bc945f98d02529b307a589.png) ![viewport_compare_2.1.6](https://blenderartists.org/uploads/default/original/4X/6/1/9/619840752f598e18e525dc7fee6a0a4889a2295e.jpeg) ![viewport_2](https://blenderartists.org/uploads/default/original/4X/a/b/1/ab1dde7531d4c7abeacf95308c19663632f7348d.jpeg) I also made the little game screen using a froggo from my other projects! ![mainmenu](https://blenderartists.org/uploads/default/original/4X/f/4/a/f4afce1e15a61d59d8ff7acc58e010c958c96436.jpeg) I ended up running the image through a colorramp and multiplied the colors with a non-random Voronoi texture to get something that I think looks way more interesting ![image](https://blenderartists.org/uploads/default/original/4X/0/3/7/037f54ecece60ec4ac381d8647f55b810134137b.png) ---

really nice, i think the textures turned out really nice. I also like the presentation on the first render, just as if i am watching an ad for this product. ---

Thanks! The intent was to look like a “real” ad in a magazine so I’m glad that came through ---
