Nintendo Sketches - Mario & Yoshi (short post, vaguely sappy)
Togail | 9:53 PM on 04.21.2009 14 comments


This is a quickie just before I head home from work. I took a realistic approach to this drawing, with a thoughtful Mario gazing into the distance with a feral looking, and more horse-like, Yoshi. Should I render this one into a full piece of artwork? I plan to create more of these in conjunction with my themed posts, it's good practice.

Also, a million thanks to each and every one of you who comment on my posts and who give kind words. Seig, you've been a constant supporter from the beginning, and I'm always watching for you. Ballistic, I appreciate your critiques and comments as well. Funktastic, Char, De Bloo, Mikey, and everyone else I can't remember off the top of my head, I'm extremely grateful that you take the time to look at my work. It really does help, and I love being able to improve and learn, and ultimately share what I do with all of you. It's been a continuing honor and pleasure.

I think this would have to be a serious project, because i couldn't just have those two, and be happy. Something like this makes me want to see their world (Read: background/ foreground) through your interpretation.

It would be criminal NOT to.

What Megastryke said. There will be blood if you do not render this...

Not really...but seriously...do this.

I could seriously see this being amazing if you made the paining/drawing really long kind of like an actual Mario level.

Good job. I do think Mario's legs should be a bit shorter (he is pretty small IIRC). Otherwise, It's great.

In other news, no one reads what you write. It's all about the pretty pictures. <3

I think you should flesh out anything you draw, because it's always awesome.

Thanks, I'm glad you find my comments worthwhile, and don't just consider it the opinions of some random doofus on the internet. It sometimes seems all too ridiculous to even consider giving an artistic opinion to such an obviously artistically talented person like yourself. I'm pretty sure I can say this on behalf of all of destructoid, but we're honored to have your work displayed here man.

...and that's enough dick sucking.

Effing sweet yo! Make it more gooder'er . . . studying for over 12 hour straight and possibly pulling two full all-nighters = lame! If you're up for suggestions, if possible, try some sort of homage to Super Mario RPG on SNES please! ^_^

Wow. I absolutely cannot wait to see this finished. Your art just blows my mind every time.

I think Mario's face should be a little more chubby/masculine. Give him a big 'ol mustache too. Yoshi looks freakin sweet!
