One of my favorite projects for HardcorePerler.com was the “Super Simpsons” from the game “The Simpsons Arcade Game”. I took another look at the sprite sheets I found online, and decided to make a new set to add to the collection.

You little S.O.B.! If I ever find out who you are, I’m going to shove a sausage down your throat and stick starving dogs in your butt!” — Response to Bart Calling for “Amanda Hugginkiss”
I made this Otto, first. I love the Walkman. People forget that the Simpsons started in the 80’s
Bart and Lisa’s team attack. I can hear the sound they make when they run around the screen during this move.
Here is part 2 of 2.
Here’s part 1 of 2 of my latest YouTube instructional video. This video covers the latest version of the masking tape method I have been using to make the bigger Perler creations.
This is the making of the Overwatch Bastion Perler from the last post.
I’m really happy how good the video turned out, and I did a little different format with slides in the videos. Check it out, I narrate the process and make stupid jokes and stuff! =)
I love Blizzard games, and have played pretty much everything from Lost Vikingsand the original Warcraft, to their most current game, Overwatch.
I wasn’t originally going to play Overwatch until it had some extra content or a price drop, but when I started seeing the reviews and fan reaction, I picked it up and only stopped playing long enough to make this Bastion Perler piece. =)
Bastion is a transforming assault robot who is looking for his place in the world a decade after the war he was created for is over. This sprite is based on the “8-bit spray” that is unlocked in a Loot Box for leveling up, and when I unlocked it, I knew I had to make and post this. It took about 6 hours to bead and iron, and I will be posting a video on YouTube of the masking tape prep and ironing.
Perched on his recon rifle is his bird friend Ganymede.
Here’s some of the random sprites I’ve made over the last few months. After my big Space Invaders piece, I took a little bit of a break. I’m about to wrap up the Super Mario Maker project, and am considering moving into Final Fantasy 2 for my next big project.
I’ll be pinning the Super Mario Maker sprites to the wall soon, and will post update pics. =)
New big project in the works. Gotta finish this up in the next 3 days. I separated an entire bucket again and the plan is to make one single piece with it. (Like I did with this)
I’ve laid out the Invaders, shields and laser cannon from the 1978 game Space Invaders, and was planning on what I would do to fill things in, and haven’t made a final decision, but I am going to get back to work on it now.
I will post the finished project or some more updates soon.

Here’s the next batch of 40 or so of the Super Mario Maker Perlers. I’m two thirds done now. I’ll update with more pics once I get them on the wall with the others. I ironed all of these in one marathon session. I should’ve taken pictures or video. I will next time. with the final batch.
Can you name them all, or at least what other games they are from?
I got to decorate my tree this year with my favorite Christmas Perlers. I haven’t been able to have a tree for the last few years (small apartments), and was super stoked to show off my Christmas Beadsprites to friends and family.
I should have been posting these weekly, or at least not have waited so long to post anything on the page, but better late than never.
Here’s what I’ve been up to the last few weeks.
Here we have the Amiibo costumes of the crew and ship from StarFox.
A few of the Animal Crossing costumes. (I wonder what angry song K.K. slider is singing).
Dr. Mario, Kart Mario, and some Yarn Yoshis.
Bowser Jr, Waluigi, Pit, Princess, Bowser, and Zero Suit Samus.
Diddy and Donkey Kong, Little Mac, Shellcreeper, Sidestepper , and a Shyguy.
Question mark block, Toad, Dr. Lobe, Fit Trainer, Chibi Robo, and a Squid from Splatoon.
Majohng tile, King Dedede, Foreman Spike, Pikmen, Toon Link, and Mr Game and Watch.
And finally some various enemies. 
I project I am about half done with the project, and started putting them up on the wall. =)
