🎃🥧 Pumpkin Pie 🥧🎃

Guess what other Nintendo series I got into recently? 👀

And by recently, I mean a few months back in June lol

Ik Thanksgiving was almost a month ago, and Christmas is just around the corner, but I thought I’d post it now (very typical of me at this point). How was y’alls Thanksgiving? For me, it was just so-so. It wasn’t as boring as last year's Thanksgiving, but it still was pretty average. Though in all honestly I’m not too big on Thanksgiving in general, I only really like it because of the food, the Macy’s Parade, and the fact that I get to hang out with other family members :P

Also drew this as a (super belated) 29th Anniversary of one of the best RPGs and Nintendo games of all time, Earthbound/Mother 2.

Like with F-Zero, I always knew about the Earthbound series thanks to Smash Bros (not to mention that Ness and Lucas are one of my mains), but never really got into it until I got a little older. I haven’t played the game just yet, but I plan on getting it on my Nintendo Switch soon.

I’ve been listening to the Vocal Album of the first Mother game (specifically the songs where Catherine Warwick was the main singer because on God she has a beautiful singing voice), the soundtrack to Earthbound, and some Let’s Plays of the game by the Game Grumps, and I just immediately fell in love in the series. It is quite sad that it initially didn’t take off in the West when it came out in 1995.

It probably didn’t help that the slogan for the game seen from the Player’s Guide was, “This game stinks” 💀

To celebrate almost 30 years of the game’s existence, I drew Ness’s mom, Rachael. While she isn’t too involved in the plot of the game, she still has an important role throughout it. If Ness gets homesick, he has to occasionally call his mom to get rid of it. She’s one of my favorite characters in not just the game, but the franchise as a whole. I love her design sm, and I like the fact that she differs a lot from a majority of other mom characters in media.

She’s not a helicopter mom, soccer mom, or tiger mom. She’s not annoyingly overprotective of Ness, or even super strict towards him. Instead, she’s chill, helpful, and laid-back and is basically supportive of whatever he does, which I find neat. She’s one of the best Nintendo parents and is criminally underrated.

Since the game was released during the mid-90s, and a majority of the game takes place in Eagleland, a parody of and highly fictionalized version of 90s America, I wanted to give Rachael an outfit as a homage to that era. Gave her a cute sweater, jeans, and a headband, but kept her original earrings and necklace. I absolutely loved how the outfit turned out, though I feel like the headband could have turned out a little better.
