Mario pictures

[Xiahou Dun]

I really love these. Bright, colorful, cute as hell, and very pleasing to look at. Some pictures look like cells from an anime. We don't normally get that kind of stuff, a real shame.

Also, Mario's really scared of roller coasters, and that's adorable.

And you are spot-on here: Artmic was indeed a studio involved in Japanese animation.

Also, Mario's really scared of roller coasters, and that's adorable.

I was surprised to see that Shogakukan would show this trait again in their own Super Mario Picture Books:

Mario and friends beat the crap out of reused art.

The best one is Iggy who is based on Larry Koopa SMW artwork:

problem is, they forgot to change the feline mouth...

This is not how to do the Mario

Wow, those art book pictures are very nice! It's amazing how many obscure pieces of Mario media from the 90s exist.

not gonna lie, at a first glance, I thought that overall clad character sadly hung in the plants in the background was a plushie of Mario. Maybe that's what Mario's third brother will look like, huh.

Dude, a Mario skating game would be sweet, I mean it's not like Tony Hawk is making that kind of games anymore, might as well just hand it to Mario

From one Daisy fan to another...

Calm down there, buddy. You're at an eleven, I'm gonna need you to bring it down to a one.

 

[Weasel]

Yeah that's kinda murder-y .

 

[Superchao]

leave this man alone

 

[Marioro]

That's not very nice. What's so bad about that Daisy picture? I thought he was just joking.


Unless there's some weird history behind that joke that I just don't know or something.

Is anybody else fond of this King Koopa design from the Mario cartoons? I can't be the only one, right?

Thank you for reading.

He looks like a character out of Dragon Tales. Not saying that's a bad thing, that's just what he looks like. It's mainly the snout that does it.

Thank you for reading.

I mean, it's not a problem if people are fond of the design, the problem I find is that the design was so off-model with that green crocodilian appearance that at a certain point it was difficult to distinguish Bowser from Wart...

 

[Mcmadness]

that shell has way too many spikes

 

[Nyorori]

It appears that our one up boy is among us Earth folk

Everyone dying in Countdown Pound

And the last one is a bonus because, clearly, this guy's having fun.
