Don't know who did the voice for Ten, but his grunts are great. Especially when played back to back.

Ten looks like such a kicked puppy.

Okay, but seriously, does anyone actually use this mechanic? Like ever?

Speaking of useless mechanics, only invest in this battle plug if you need something cheap to unlock more plugs. This game just doesn't have enough spiked enemies to make this item worthwhile.

An Old Mario Pic I made to look like a stage, using both Legos and figures.

Shells Are Clothes

So, shells in the Mario world are not necessarily biological but more like a type of clothing and possibly power up with variations of a single shell.

While not everyone remembers this but Koopas quite often could be kicked out of shells and run around without one Super Mario Bros. 4 Super Mario World, Super Mario 3D Land, Super Mario 64, etc. Even in the original Mario Bros. the Shell Creepers exit their shells to flip it. In Paper Mario 64 the Koopas of Koopa Village have their shells stolen by Fuzzies, one Koopa mentions their shell is custom made, this shows them to be something that can be ordered and worn.

This is further shown with characters like Bowser in the RPG games switching out shells, and Mario using the Blue Shell power up. Mario uses a Blue Shell Power up and block in NSMBDS and M&LBIS. There is also the Lazy Shell from SMRPG.

Not to mention Mario and Friends in Super Mario 3D World can enter empty Koopa shells.

They also seem to serve as power ups themselves Bowser gaining abilities from different shells, certain shells in SMB4SMW being able to chase Mario down when piloted by a Kamikaze Koopa, or even how when a Yoshi eats the SMW shells he can spit fire or grow wings.

We also see Blue Electrokoopas remove their shells and send it flying at Mario as a form of attack.

The shells are probably made by a company that is connected to the Strike Equipment from Mario Kart who Mario Red, Green, Bowser, and Spiny shells for kart races.

We also see shells being worn by non Koopa creatures as well that don't normally need shells like Goombas, Konkadors, and Ant Troopers. Yoshis themselves could be a Koopa as mentioned in a previous post, and like Koopas they are born without their shells.

Some shells might even be extra heavy causing Koopas to go on all 4.

Apparently you can use Boomerangs to block other Boomerangs... also, wow, this clip ends on a cliffhanger. I can assure you... that Green Shell did hit me.

Oh look at that! Progress!

Still a long way to everything be finished, but this is kinda fun!

Again, so sorry for the sloppiness on some part, I'm not an animator... This was my first time animating a lot of things like, "falling", "trembling" and on...

Chapters 1, 2 and 3 of All My Blossoms is now up on AO3!!!

I’ve been working hard on it and have at least one future project (also Bowuigi) planned that will hopefully be quite long! I won’t work on it any further until AMB is completed.

Please share your thoughts on AMB either on here or on AO3!

(You can ask about either project but answers on the next project may be vague as my focus is on AMB rn)

My AO3 name is TheQualityQueer! It is me dw, I just use a different name on there.

Me throwing a green shell knowing it's going to come back and hit me: It'll be different this time! 🤡

[batneko]

had an idea for Bowser pulling a Megamind and disguising himself as a human, and accidentally learning a lot more about how people see him.

I guess this is a superhero AU too? IDK. I want to do one of those but I don't have any solid ideas for it yet.
