Description Do you like videogames? I like videogames. Here's some mushrooms from Mario Bros.

Man, I happy with how these turned out. It took quite a bit of time to get the right aspect ratios, but they look great in the end. Super tiny too, 3/4" tall. Also, they're hollow. They hold their shape pretty dang well, with some slight squishiness.

Tech specs:
I used a mix of brass and plated copper for this, it should be pretty obvious which part is which (the yellow is the brass). All 20g (.8mm) wire, with a mix of 3.5mm and 4.5mm ID for the rings. I put them on adjustable polyester cords for wearing purposes.

This makes me want to do a lot more of different retro icons as chainmaille pendants. So, y'know, prepare for that to happen.

Can be found for sale on Etsy:
