And the not super thrilling lost in translation conclusion… 🇮🇹 mamma mia! I listened to this video to get the vibes for Mario and Luigi‘s argument lmao
Read Part 2 here
Also!! The Smasha you on a rock line is from the mario heritage post itself. It never fails to make me sensibly chuckle. :]
Strange question, but would you alright with responding to this with your separated username? Im dyslexic and have a very hard understanding what it says ^^"
Sure no problem!!! :D I’m kinda dyslexic too so I understand, I’m gonna put it in bold too cause that helps me sometimes if that’s alright d(^^ ).
Hello! So sorry for not posting in awhile, life got busy ^^’ in the meantime, I hope y’all can enjoy another art collab I did! The original sketch is by syu yabuisya , and you can visit the artist’s twitter by clicking here. <-----
I decided to do the Cartoon Network challenge...sorta. Instead of doing OCs as I’ve seen around the internet, I decided I’d give it a go on this adorable sketch :) the color palette provided are the only colors I used as they are the same and only colors for some of the images displayed on the TV network Cartoon Network. Thank you for drawing such an adorable picture syu, especially of some of the most underrated Super Mario characters (I can’t get over how innocent Junior looks here >//<). I’ve got some Zelda and other fan art in the works, and I’ll post them as soon as I can :)
TL; DR: Art colored by me, drawn originally by syu yabuisya.
I keep forgetting how long Luigi was kept as Bowser's prisoner.
He was absent in the movie for so long that I didn't keep track of it. The poor guy was literally just in his cage the whole time, listening to this chibi star with a baby child's voice talking about DEATH all the time, and all he could do was just sit there and hear it nonstop.
He doesn't even look annoyed by it either. He just looks concerned.
Fifteen Mario Characters in My World of Mario Style
I can’t draw Bowser’s face for the life of me, so I always give him a more simplified facial structure. Similarly, his shell only has four BIG spikes instead of a bunch of smaller ones. His long tortoise neck adds to his body language and makes his “sleep-mode size” look more imposing. I added fangs to his lower jaw compared to how I used to draw him, so he looks less like a guy in a costume.
Junior’s more a manner of stylization than an outright redesign, but the massive ponytail was a fun addition.
Kamek has ganglier proportions and pupils visible through his glasses. A slouch both shows his age and emphasizes his shell.
The underside of Toad’s cap is visible to make it more obviously part of his body. Also, you can’t tell in the above image, but I both darkened Toad’s complexion and made it so that the spots on his cap are permanently blue.
Toadette is one of the more drastically different characters in how I portray her, punctuated by a less chibi-esque look and a single ponytail. Note how the front of her cap is scored, making it look more like hair.
Rosalina has a slightly more gothic look about her, complete with the star tattoo on her shoulder. There’s also a lot more soft shapes here.
DK borrows Donkey Kong Junior’s tank top and conjoined eyes since some adaptations essentially merge the two, most recently the movie.
Wario takes the goggles from his WarioWare outfit and tacks them onto his cap. Rings around his eyes become discolored eyelids and his stubby legs become disproportionally gangly ones.
Waluigi would really rather be anywhere else, as evidenced by his preppy tennis outfit. Better posture makes him look even taller than usual.
Birdo, also known by her stage name “Birdetta”, adopts the conical mouth of her earlier designs, slightly mismatched eyes, freckles for extra cuteness points, and a little jacket.
Yoshi looks like a deformed Zbornak with more of a theropod-like build and a longer tail. Also, he’s totally wearing dinosaur slippers.
It’s hard for me to draw Mario’s mouth under his mustache, so it’s parted a little. Drawing his nose a separate circle with a mustache added on makes it easier to break up his face into a manageable design.
Luigi has a drooping mustache, heavy slouch, and oblong eyes, all to make him look as awkward as possible.
Peach’s VERY stylized bangs and ponytail make her easier to draw, while her minimized nose harkens back to the toads that raised her. Not pictured for spacing purposes is her floaty, crowny thing that I don’t draw the other princesses with.
Daisy goes for more of a youthful, androgynous look with more exaggerated facial features. Still cute, though.
I have been seeing this particular trend for our comfort characters and I ended up doing it. Instead of my OCs, I picked my big three (my Smash Bros. mains). Bowser, Donkey Kong and Young Link have been around since Melee and I rarely do any pics with these three as I used to. But I still use them for Project Arcana.
