Description YOSHI'S ISLAND IS BEST GAME

I tried my best to fix the scan, but the colours really don't do this one justice, here. It's much nicer in real life. Also, too many stars. But I like it. It was ambitious, and set the standard for the rest of the month... eventually.

Pfft, what's a three year's time difference in the grand scheme of things?
I really, really like that "galactic, cosmic" shading that Raphael has. I love his shading in general, but that is something I wanted to point out.

Very nice! One of my favourite Mario universe species! <3 So cute and wise. I love how you've rendered him here. c: Especially how you coloured his underbelly. It looks very celestial and suits the style of Yoshi's Island very nicely! I love it!

What did you use to draw this? I love the colors, but I especially love the blue/green/purple reflected light underneath Raphael's body against the black.

Thanks! I used a combination of Copic and Prismacolour markers. The part you're talking about started off as a gradient of blues and purples, and then brown on top of the darkest blues to make it look black.
