It Took Me Around 116 Hours In Total To Create All These Drawings Of My Childhood Objects From The Nineties (29 Pics)
I grew up in the nineties and I love to draw. The combination of those two led me to draw all my favorite childhood objects. From a Gameboy to a Casio watch.
I drew one object every single day for 29 days straight. On average it took me 4 hours per drawing counting up to an average total of 116 hours to create all these artworks.
All these images are made in Adobe Illustrator, making them 100% vector.

I had my first Nokia 5110 before 3310 became a thing. Tell me how old you are without telling me how old you are.
I wanted to change myself so I came up with the idea to draw an item from my childhood every single day for 29 days. I picked a subject I really like: 90's objects. That made It easier!
Even though all the objects are more or less from the same time, the most 90s item for me is my Gameboy. I've spent countless hours playing Tetris and Mario!
Mixtapes. Oh god the mixtapes. XD And waiting with bated breath for your favorite song to play on the radio so you could smash your finger on the “REC” button on your boombox.
and now, i got the music... tin tititin tititin tititin tititin titin tin tin tin tin
The most enjoyable part was drawing an object from my childhood every single day! The challenging part was finding the time to come up with these drawings every single day for 29 days straight! Time management isn't my strongest subject.
When drawing and thinking about these objects I felt nostalgia, happiness and overall joy. I'm a really nostalgic person and I look back at those days a lot. I love living in the present, but those were the good days!
I'm glad these are making a comeback. Now we need more roller rinks opening up again.

REW... PLAY... REW... PLAY... FF... PLAY... for hours on end! Trying to get each and every song lyric just right... writing them out with pen and paper to share with friends... long before the days of the ubiquitous printing of lyrics inside every cassette jacket... thanks for the delicious throwback, mmmmmm...
Okay but - sideways jaunt - is anyone else here watching the series Andor? I started loudly yelling that the “navigational tool” the group was using on Aldhani was a Polaroid SX-70!
I had a keyboard that would play the “William Tell Overture” if you pressed the DEMO button. I briefly fooled a few friends into thinking I was an exceptionally skilled pianist by pretending I was the one playing XD
Now they sell them solved. It takes the fun away and I don't want to mess up a solved Rubiks.
Can we all take a moment to appreciate the impeccable details in the logo stamp.
Okay, I know that some of these aren't strictly from the time period they were supposed to be, but the author did work hard on them and I don't think they deserve to be downvoted. The shadows are super good and the detail is impeccable; that deserves an upvote in itself (note that this is my opinion and you don't have to agree with me; please don't feel pressured to up- or downvote anything!)
I remember when my dad let me use his cans of spray paint. I was filled with joy at his trust. I promptly got gold spray paint all over the concrete in the backward because I tried to spray-paint a 2-by-4 on the bare ground. XD I learned about covering your workspace that day :p
