3D Mario Mushroom - Perler Bead Style
Faith | 11:37 PM on 11.09.2008 12 comments



So currently I'm taking some happy brain time off from work in order to keep me from going insane and slaughtering those I work with in order to wear their entrails as a hat ... I'm just kidding. I'm taking time off due to skull cracking headaches. Not happy vision seeing headaches or special psychic power creating headaches ... no, those would be cool. I just get the endless and useless headaches.

But I've been taking this time to do some soothing crafts and my first project is a 3D Mario mushroom made from Perler Beads. I managed to layer several circles together to create a 3D mushroom design based on the Super Mario World mushroom.

Pretty neat huh? It has no use except maybe a paper weight. Have you ever seen anyone actually use a paper weight before though? I think they're just a scam to sell useless art pieces.

Excellent work. And my dad actually uses a paperweight, although I've yet to figure out why.

Paperweight? I don't need no stinking paperweight.

Does look cool though.
