I’ve been mulling it over recently, and I’ve got a few questions to ask YOU guys about :
1. Are there any pixelations from this blog you would like to see as prints ?
2. Regarding Society6, how do you feel about the prices for the art ?
3. Have you come across any other “Art Print” services you would recommend ?
Help a fellow out ! I’d love to hear your opinions on the matter.
Thanks for your help, guys !
Free Hot Dogs ! Free Hot Dogs !
…Now that I have your attention, It’s time for … Request Time !
Want to make a request ? Follow these steps !
1. Think up a character.
2. Check if it has been done before, either by searching using the little tab on the right or by googling your character followed by “pixelblock tumblr”,
3. Not been done ? Type it in below !
That’s all you have to do !
Ready ? Steady ? Redecorate !
Hey everybody ! It’s Sunday ! Time for an Update !
Last week, I unfortunately could not post anything on Friday due to a whole bunch of bad timing. So this week, expect to see Garchomp (Pokémon), the Borderlands crew and a teeny tiny Pip Boy device appearing on Monday. The rest of the week will feature a whole slew of new deresolutions based on Xiahou Dun, Peacock from Skullgirls, Tom Nook, Lucario, Poison Ivy, Kurt Cobain, Superboy, and more.
As well as all of that, I’ve got a few of my own deresolutions to add. Who, you ask ? You’ll have to keep your eyes peeled !
And on top of all that pixely goodness, I have one very special new piece of art to show you guys. You’ll find out what it is on Wednesday, but suffice to say that the end result looks very cool.
That’s all for your Sunday Update ! Stay tuned for Request Time !
Have a nice day !

It’s Request Time !
Got an itching to see your favourite character derezzed to absolutely tiny proportions ? Well you’re in luck !
Follow these steps !
1. Concentrate your mind’s eye on what you want to see derezzed.
2. Check that it hasn’t been done before ! Search it using the tab on the right, or google “Pixelblock” followed by the name of your chosen character. If nothing from this blog appears, chances are it hasn’t been done !
3. Not been done before ? Good ! Write it in the box below.
4. Run. Don’t ask why. JUST RUN.
Ready ? Steady ? Caliphate !
Hey everybody ! It’s Sunday ! Time for another update !
I got a huge bundle of requests last week, and unfortunately I simply could not get them all to fit in a single week . However, don’t worry ! I’m going to get as many as possible into this week as I can !
To that end, expect to see Sephiroth, Jigglypuff, Mylotic, Cookie Monster, Dave Grohl,
Super Saiyan Broly, the rest of the Dungeon Defenders and a few Borderlands guys from last week, whilst I’ll also be trying to fit in more from the “Sunday Mail” such as Danzo from Naruto, someone from the “Regular Show”, Simon Pegg (a la Shaun of the Dead) and more.
As well as all of that pixelated goodness, I’ll be throwing in a few of my own suggestions. An incredibly “illusive” intergalactic fellow ? A wielder of the Keyblade ? Someone who just loves to throw bombs ? Or … a video game controller ? I guess you’ll just have to wait and see !
I’ve also got two NEW prints coming up : One will be based on the mega detailed pixelation based on Cho’Gath the demon from League of Legends, the other…is a mystery !
Stay tuned for request time, and I hope you all have a nice day !

Hello everybody ! It’s Sunday ! You know what that means ? Exclamation marks ! Oh, and time for your weekly update too.
A lot of requests still keep pouring in, and as always I’m working hard to get as many of them done as possible.
L (from the manga / anime Death Note), Wall-E and Eve, Growlithe, Protoman and a Deku Scrub will finally show up this week, while Pit, Donkey Kong, Calvin’s alter ego “Spaceman Spiff” and more will be making appearances, as well as not one but THREE groupshots dedicated to Avatar The Last Airbender, The Ramones and Pixar’s The Incredibles !
But there are still some spaces to fill in, you say ? Well, I’d better make them count ! Will a famous Covenant fighting supersoldier finally get his long deserved remix ? Will a thoroughly unexpected secret agent attempt an infiltration into a post ? Will a monkey with a bright light on it’s head finally have it’s moment in the spotlight ? Who knows !
I’ll also be dropping two new character art prints this week on my society 6 store, for those who are interested. I can’t say who they are, but if you want two of gaming’s most well known characters as large blocky prints on your wall you may want to hang around on Wednesday.
Have a good day, everybody ! Request Time is up next !
PixelBlock
Well would you look at that ! A deviantartist named “DrFrancisGross” decided to recreate the Liara, FemShep and Tali deresolutions from my “Mass Effect” groupshot and turn them into perler bead art !
Great stuff !

Psst. Hey. Hey you over there. Wanna make a request for a character ? Just so happens that I know a guy who knows a guy who lives near a guy who can do that.
Follow these steps !
1. Use your mind’s eye to picture a character.
2. Meet “Crazy Steve” in the dark alleyway.
3. Consult the Archives and check if it has been previously done.
4. Type in your request in the text box below.
5. Move to Wisconsin.
Ready ? Steady ? Supercalifragilisticate !
It’s Sunday ! Sunny Day ! Day of Sun ! It doesn’t matter what you call it, it’s update time !
Requestwise, Noble Team from Halo : Reach will be dropping in at some point in the next week alongside the Happy Mask Salesman, Travis Touchdown 2.0, Midna from Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess, Morpheus from “The Sandman”, fancy musical band “The Drums”, Sweet Tooth, Doug and possibly more.
But what about those gaps in between ? Well, what little space there is to fill will be peppered with a famed normal guy in a green jumpsuit who is fond of “Kicking Ass”, two karmic versions of electro powered rascal Cole Mcgrath, a classic nickolodeon character who might have a “Football Head” and … who knows ? Wouldn’t wish to spoil them all !
Printwise, expect to see a new “8bit Icons” print dedicated to one of the finest heroes of Gallowmere as well as a new large pixel groupshot.
What will the groupshot be? It’s your choice ! A voting page will appear soon with four options, so vote for your favourite and watch it become available in the society6 store on Wednesday.
That’s all for now folks. Stay Tuned for “Request Time” and “A Poll of Prints” !
Have a lovely day !

Hey everybody ! It’s Sunday ! Time for an Update !
It’s been another bumper week for the blog, what with the launch of the “8bit Icons” series of prints and a whole slew of groupshots based on Resident Evil, Cowboy Bebop and the Oracles from Legend of Zelda, but next week looks to be even better !
Requestwise, expect to see a friendly appearance by Rick Grimes from The Walking Dead, Wonder Girl from DC Comics, Dirty Frank from 2000 AD and whatever else gets dropped into the Sunday Mail.
As for the rest of the week, expect to see the familiar mix of remixes and totally new deresolutions, including Darth Vader, Viewtiful Joe, Prince from Katamari Damacy, The Predator and many more. I’ll also be dropping two new “8bit Icons” prints on Wednesday, alongside a reveal of a rather fancy new miniature “Pixel Portrait” scene dedicated to The Batman.
And if that isn’t enough, later on today there will be a new Poll with a very special question concerning a new art print I’ll be putting up soon.
Look for it at 2:00PM EST, and help me make an incredibly important choice !
As always, have a wonderful weekend !
