Two “untooned” images from pixeloo recently made the rounds around the Internet: Homer Simpson and Mario. Now, they’re at it again with Jessica Rabbit from Who Framed Roger Rabbit?
From blogspot.com:
So this ended up taking quite a bit longer than the last 2 even though I had expected a pretty easy time with it. I was able to complete the face relatively quickly but the real challenge was everything from her neck down. Trying to piece together parts of a body from multiple photos on top of a highly disproportionate body was pretty difficult. I considered only doing the face but I predicted pitchforks and torches if I chose that route. Creating the sequins took a bit of time too. I recently saw some camera effects in a music video I tried to duplicate too with the streaked brightness which I gave a shot here to add to the whole realism.

From craftster.org:
So one day I picked up an NES Zapper (gun) and went “woah, that would make a cool lamp!” So… after playing around…
I gutted one… who knew this is what they looked like inside?
Then I stumbled around for ideas for the base and shade. A regular cartridge was too small a base, so I measured one and made a 1.5 scale replica out of cardboard, and screwed the gun to it. I weighted it with stones, and then tackled the shade.
I picked up a $2 shade at the re-store, a pack of fun foam, and voila! After hours and hours of cutting pixellated shapes, I was done! A little dab of glue to secure the shade, and… ta dah!
I want one of these, especially if you can pull the trigger to turn it on and off.
