Have you all heard about this "Mario" guy?

Fireheart Takes Some Advice

Moon's haunted.

Well if you're gonna spend all your time with your RiverClan girlfriend, maybe I'LL get my own, and she'll be better because she'll be ThunderClan and a little jerk.

What's that? Oakheart has a secret? I wonder what on earth his secret could be. Too bad he never dropped any hints. Oh well, guess we'll never know.

I swear, Mapleshade isn't the only thing I'm thinking of. I just thought it would be funny though since I happened to read her novella in the week of Valentine's Day.

What's the matter, Appledusk? Don't you support women's wrongs?

Finally finished my new Muzzadog reference. I was planning on making the "new year new me" joke but it took me so long that January is basically over.

First art of 2025! Just felt like doing my own take on Maria, while looking at the official model, Sonic Channel art, and Dark Beginnings concept art for reference.

I suppose this will be my new New Years' tradition, at least until I've gone through all 12 animals in the Chinese Zodiac.

I'm sure it's a lot harder to hold up a shiny ball to drop when you have no arms and are a lot smaller than a dragon (as in the previous art).

Incidentally, the Year of the Snake is when I was born. This is the truest me there is.

Here's my 2024 art recap! I think I had a pretty good range of style experimentation this year. And I hadn't realized how much Mario stuff I'd drawn.

Some stuff wasn't shared on all of my socials, so I may have to go through and upload some of it later, not sure when though.

Now that I know what happens in Into The Pit, I've come up with a new horrible ship that would only serve to make everything worse for everybody else.

Inside you there are two wolves. Actually there is one wolf, and he's not going back inside.

Finally watched Mean Girls this week and realized October 3rd was coming right up, so I knew I had to do something for it. Not only that, but I think the movie came out in 2004, making this the 20th Mean Girls Day. That's very fetch.

Heard tell of a "Bowser" "Day". Wow!

The Klutzy Koop - Yowser

I bring you another Mario OC. Yowser is a Koopa that Bowser hired hoping his dangerous clumsiness could stop Mario, so he'd be a recurring boss fight.

Every time he's fought, he's got a different gimmick, whether that's through the use of obstacles in the boss fight arena or weapons he wields against you. You have to dodge the ensuing chaos until he manages to clumsily stun himself using said gimmick—with his horns and spikes, him being temporarily stunned is the only time his weak spot, his long tail, is still and vulnerable.

I was imagining him specifically as a boss for 2d platformers, but I think the idea of turning his attempted attacks around on him could lend itself well to a boss fight in a Paper Mario or Mario & Luigi game.

Of course, eventually it might stop being believable that Bowser would keep him around. Maybe at that point he could get fired and move to Diamond City or something; I think he'd fit in with the wacky hijinks of the WarioWare games.
