Description Boy I hope you like this one. Why? Well firstly because I had to utilise some special techniques but mostly because, like an idiot, I accidentally saved over the original colour version so I can't amend anything in the colouring without doing the whole thing over again!

So anyway here we see Mario (Red) and Luigi (Green) facing off against one of my favourite classic enemies: Rocky Wrenches.

I'd recommend a fullview for a clearer idea.

Indeed.  But the pride of keeping the loop going is the prize that gives the most satisfaction.

Rocky Wrench NEEDS to make a major comeback! There was an enemy like a Rocky Wrench in Super Mario Galaxy, though they were never referred to or acknowledged as suck in the game.

I want to see them in a Mario spin-off, particularly another Mario Baseball game, or maybe even a Mario Party game.

I've always loved those Rocky Wrenches ever since I played SMB3 as a kid! Back then, I didn't know what they were called or exactly WHAT they were. They looked like dogs throwing bones to mine. I was so happy when they came back in Mario Kart DS! Your piece makes me want to grab one of those Rockies through the screen and keep it as a pet. Even the Mario Bros. look like they're afraid to mess with them! Great job!

They are, in fact, quite awesome.
They need to appear in one of the RPGs or something.
That's a lot for your comment, I don't get much more than "good job" usually, but the fact that you thought about your comment is great.

Awesome!!! I really like how you've captured their expression of "Oh boy..." or something. I don't like that Rocky Wrench. They show up in the most inconvenient of places. Good thing it's only on battle ships.

You did the Rockies quite well---first time I've seen them look like actual creatures, not just blob-like pixelforms like in SMB3.

I think it's a Swayze quote, possibly from Dirty Dancing. Having never seen it I'm not sure.
