Here's something based on some fics I wrote back in the day. Was fun to make, especially some of the faces. I hope some of this is readable for you all with the dark forest environment.

#digitalart #mario #papermario #ladybow #oc #originalcharacter #illustration

Comic showcasing Bow from Mario and two OCs of mine, Chopper and Berry. The first panel shows Bow pinching Chopper's cheek, much to his discomfort. The second panel has a kunai coming in to separate them. The third panel shows Chopper and Bow in the foreground, and in the background is a mad Berry. For the fourth and fifth panel, Berry is aiming her fingers to her eyes and then toward the reader with a suspicious look on her face.

I did a Paper Mario art collab for the 25th anniversary of the series, and we were tasked to make a Paper Mario character. Here we have a Pixl from a fanfiction I wrote over ten years ago, Starbow!

New Paper Mario character OC, Toamelia. She knows everything about her home and the rest of the land, which is why she works as a tour guide.

Here's the old one for comparison, made in June of 2015!

This art showcases Chopper and Tipral passing by each other akin to Sonic and Shadow in Sonic Generations. This was the old version that was created in 2015.

First time I'm doing a new version of a art piece from ten years ago! I based the original on the pose from Sonic Generations, so I went with the Shadow Generations one for this drawing.

#oc #originalcharacter #chopper #tipral #moon #space #sonicxshadowgenerations #digitalart #illustration

The picture shows Chopper (left) and Tipral (right) passing by each other and imitating the same pose as Sonic and Shadow did during their showdown in Shadow Generations. The moon is in the background as well.

My Art Fight drawings from last month.

Indigo belongs to ashenlaguz, Paperface belongs to ChollyCham, Tama belongs to Shyft, and Boombella belongs to @kuroshirobon.bsky.social

#artfight2025 #oc #originalcharacter #digitalart #illustration #art

This image showcases Indigo with her trident swimming underwater in the blue ocean. There's a little bit of light coming from above too.

Here we have Paperface making a business pose leaning against a table in a small room with a window. The walls are a palish blue or cyan.

This image showcases Tama stalking a little mouse. Her paw is ready to strike the little critter. The room has a light blue floor, a pink wall, and a little mouse hole.

This image shows Boombella charging forward toward the screen. Her fuse is lit up and ready to explode, so watch out! The background is speedy and blue.

It's Vivian from Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door! Though this is a new look for her. Let's just say it's a look she dons some time after the game.

This picture depicts a new look for Vivian from Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door with a bow resembling the red and white stripes on her hat. She also has some fire in her hands.

It may be summer, but sometimes you need those winter pieces.

#oc #originalcharacter #digitalart #art #snow #ice #chopper #flyer #berry #tamber #icing

An art piece featuring Chopper skating along the snowy landscape with ice cream mountains in the background. On him is his Ice power, which changes him to a light blue color. Following behind him is Chopper's wing-headed friend Flyer, the pink ninja Berry, and the furry and grumpy Tamber, who has just punched a snowman's head off. In the background is the evil ice king, Icing, watching over.

With Easter, I figured I'd share an old drawing I made in 2021. It was a great battle between the Easter and Wester Bunny.

An art piece featuring the Easter Bunny on the right and the Wester Bunny to the left fighting over an egg. This marked the beginning of the war between Easter and Wester.

I beat the new Mario and Luigi game a while back, and when I saw these kids, I thought it'd be fun if Chopper and Flyer interacted with them.

#oc #originalcharacter #marioandluigi #brothership #nintendo #chopper #flyer #idle #ireen #dulles #loog #ellow #fanart

An art piece featuring two OCs, Chopper and Flyer, interacting with four characters from Mario and Luigi: Brothership called IDLE. The pink one, Ireen, takes an interest in Chopper after seeing him in action. The green one, Dulles, is interested in the Starry Chopper brought. The blue one, Loog, is fascinated by Flyer having wings on his head, much to the former's discomfort. The yellow one, Ellow, is confused at the Starry Dulles is showing him.

I took a go at another Owl House house crossover comic featuring Arcane. I figured Luz would think she's like Azura in some way.

Oh, and Chopper's there too, I guess.

Chopper has quite the appetite.

This was inspired by that one scene in Ed Edd 'n' Eddy where Ed eats his mattress.

This comic showcases Flyer walking into his kitchen to check in on Chopper, only to see something...different about him. Not to mention a missing refrigerator.

Paper Chopper is finally back, everyone, and what better way to celebrate with a new cover art based on everyone's favorite Paper Mario game?

Haven't drawn my main villain oc in a while, so I decided to change that. So here's the evil demon knight Maquano!

An art piece showcasing an evil demon named Maquano looking down at a victim that's at his mercy. Trust me, he's totally evil.

Hello new followers! I've got an art piece of one of my characters, Berry. I had made this before Halloween, and I never got around to posting it. I based the pose on a promotional art of Zelda from Echoes of Wisdom, and then I did a little more.
