Sketches for Princess Daisy's mom, the Empress of Sarasaland. I might have gone a little overboard, but it was fun to draw the costumes of this many Portuguese and Spanish queens. And Vic, of course. Adding the daisy motif to 16th-17th c. dress was surprisingly easy.

Working on these pieces, I curated a collection of Mario ads, almost all of which I found by combing the vast archives of the one and only @mariobrothblog.bsky.social. Here is a short thread of some of my favorites—I'll post a handful each day this week as I post the sketches.

Close-ups of the little assets I made for the ads. Should I have spent so much time making a fake version of the Rare logo with my name on it just to pixellate and halftone it to hell? Probably not. Did I have fun doing it? Yes.

So Nintendo just released a short about babies hmm? And the baby has Rosalina's hair and color scheme hmm? You didn't believe me, but I told you. Yoshi's Teething with Rage is coming to Switch 2.

A line up of robots based on constables. Far left top: Two head concepts, one dark and bathed in harsh red n' blue light, the other brass and showing off the head lamp. Far Left: Green and stouter Constable robot. Center Left: Blue and tall Constable robot. Center Right: Steel and tall and broad Constable Robot Right: Skeletal insides of the Constable robot. The tall head contains six cameras and a head lamp. Green intestinal areas flow with necrotic fuel.

Quick concept sketch of one of the main threats in the D&D game I'm in.

I found another issue of the same magazine that had half the pages ripped out to wrap Christmas ornaments with. Apparently that Yoshi game had a Game Boy Advance companion piece. I get why this one went unreleased. I don't think people want to play an "irreconcilable differences" simulator.

Frank-Kap, a small grunt enemy from World 1 (Graveyard) that appears to be a bipedal, one-eyed cerebellum hiding under the scalp of some of reanimated creature. The flavor text reads: Discarded Byproducts of failed experiments. they waddle around the graveyard looking for an unsuspecting host to seize.‬ Quote: “Excuse me, is this seat taken?”

Grunt enemy from young Josue’s favorite SNES cousin-game, Hallowed Nights: Curse of the Ringmaster.

Thank you! I had fun making them.

I was cleaning out my basement and I found a gaming magazine in an old birdcage. It had this ad for an unreleased GameCube game starring Yoshi and the Mario babies, which is pretty cool. I wonder why it was never released.

Crocodilians venture rarely into this realm of moss and fog and so large carnivore niches are all filled by mammals, in this case a large marsupial patrols it's territory, looking for prey maybe in the shape of a large rail?

To cool off we leave the tropics and enter the Temperate Pluvial Forests to the south of Lemuria. Between ancient trees we come across a fantastic sight, as a mixed herd of noasaurids and large multituberculates come to the shore of a small stream to drink.

Inktober Day 6, "Pierce": I finally inked a favorite sketch drawn back in 2005!⚔️

Citadel and storm

Text: N P C Image: a skeleton in decaying motley is seated against a dank stone wall in a deep dungeon. The floor is cobbled stone and beside him is a rickety cloth and pole sign advertising various wares for sale. The skeleton raises a single shining coin. The text bubble below him reads: RATTLING AGGIE "Ah! Brave traveller! We've descended quite far have we not? Do not fear my visage, I still have wares to sell thee if you've coin or rot to spare!"
