Wanted to draw a couple of dinosaur/dragon creatures for a certain video game that was released 30 years ago today. Can you guess which game it is?
Rex and Yoshi from Super Mario World. Rex is looking up at the "SUPER MARIO WORLD" text, while Yoshi is looking at the viewer.

Hear me out: "Dry Bones (Pirate)"
I think a pirate-themed costume would have worked well for him in Mario Kart World. Alas...

Anyway, Happy Halloween! 🦴
...OoOoOoOooOooOoOoOoOoOo...
Dry Bones, wearing a pirate-themed outfit, and posing with a cutlass. The outfit is inspired by Cortez from Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door.

I've been feeling pretty down lately, but here's a boy I drew to try to cheer myself up.

Hey guys. It's been a while (again), huh?
I don't have any new art yet, but I wanted to show off something I got recently...

It's a Rex figurine! I believe this was part of a set of Super Mario World board game pawns...

A friendly gesture...
A Big Troopa and a Sky Troopa from Super Mario RPG, in the sky. The Big Troopa has his hand behind his head and is blushing, as the Sky Troopa is holding a heart-shaped cookie for the Big Troopa. The cloud with the smiley face is a background element from the Beanstalk segment of Super Mario RPG.

Sorry for the lack of art, guys. I'm hoping to turn that around soon.

For now, here's some progress I made on an SMM2 mod of mine from ages ago.

If I had more time, I could have made this better, but oh well.

Anyway, Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays 🎄
