@SmashBall35 thank you! I do think the water came out the less “splotchy” of the bunch, so I like it. For bulbasaur and squirtle, I used 0.3 Copic multi-liners (I have one in brown and one in blue, from a pair of Copic Doodle Packs!), and for charmander I used a 1.0 Uni Pin fine line pen, it’s really good, but a bit thick… so I’ll probably get a finer one at some point.

@Eel Ooh! Thank you. I’ll have to try this out sometime!

The first part of my art project series, where I draw my persona under the effects of each Super Mario power up across the series. In this piece, he's got temporary invincibility (and flashing rainbow colors) so for a few moments, no enemy can hurt him! (except bottomless pits, getting crushed or running out of time, to name a few examples of invincibility-nullifying effects)

Here we have the Super Bell from "Super Mario 3D World", which not only gives my persona an adorable cat suit but also allows him to pounce on enemies and climb up (most) walls and trees!

This power-up came from "New Super Mario Bros. 2", a game that challenged players to try to collect a million coins. (and Peach gets kidnapped by the Koopalings again, no connection to the coins though) To make this task easier, this new item allows Mario to transform into Gold Mario, who can shoot huge fireballs that turn any nearby bricks into coins, as well as defeat most enemies and leaving coins behind. (if Luigi gets one, he turns silver instead but otherwise has the same effect)

The Bee Mushroom is a power up from "Super Mario Galaxy". When collected, it turns Mario into Bee Mario, allowing him to fly (though limited by a meter), climb honeycombs and walk on flower petals and clouds. Taking damage or touching water will revert Mario to normal, although a glitch in the Sea Slide Galaxy can let Bee Mario go underwater.

I haven’t replied to anyone yet because I’m planning on posting a drawing on here, I’m going to try and get started on it tonight, and my god it’s so hard for me to start drawing for whatever reason it’s annoying. And uh, yeah I hope you guys like it, however it turns out.

@Snatcher Get rid of that feeling. Drawing or any kind of art should be enjoyable and not something that causes you stress!

Are you sure you are not worried about how people react to it because for me it seems that you think about that BEFORE even started the drawing Don't be. EVERY art piece leave something more to be desired The point is to make people interested in it on its own not because you got proportions right or some stupid color

@Zuljaras You know what, you’re right! It might not turn out to be the best thing, but I won’t ever learn if I don’t try! Thank you because I was feeling this way!

This particular ability is "Doctor", first appearing in "Kirby Planet Robobot". Donning a pair of glasses, a white coat and a headlamp, Kirby can throw pills, twirl a bandage, and even brew up chemicals which he can use to zap, fry or freeze enemies (and even rarely make a healing potion to restore health).
