LEGO plus retrogaming is a match made in geek heaven. Feast your eyes on these amazing works of brick art.

Chris McVeigh

As well as being an awesome LEGO builder, Chris McVeigh is an author, illustrator and photographer. Chris develops build guides which he offers freely (for personal use only), and has custom building kits for sale at Storenvy.

Retrogaming Mosaic

This fantastic mosaic was built using 10,511 individual LEGO pieces (fixed to fifteen 15″x15″baseplates)! How many characters can you name?

Super Mario Bros. Aquarium

This gorgeous aquarium was made by designer and blogger Kelsey Kronmiller and it took her about 336 hours in total to build – but I’m sure you’ll agree it was well worth the effort.

You have to look twice at this amazing LEGO Game Boy by Dario Dipic to tell it’s not real!

I found plenty of other amazing works of retrogaming LEGO art (a few so great they deserve their own post), so stay tuned for more LEGO stories in the near future. In the meantime, get building!
