Description
Looks like someone's being summoned for a quest. No in-between adventure naps for you, Mario! What do you think this is? A vacation? Hah!

So, yeah - this is the first complete illustration I've completed from sketch to finish within 24 hours. Do you know when the last time I actually did that was? Because I don't.

I really enjoyed working on this. Fan art is always comforting.

Reference: This Nintendo promotional image, which was also the inspiration. www.mariowiki.com/images/b/bb/…

Time: Nearly 10 hours, half drawing, half digital paint/editing.
Medium: Paper, Graphite, Pilot Color Graphite on sketch paper.
Corel Painter X for digital work.

I'll post the original sketch (which was my original finished piece before I went edit-crazy) a little later.

Thank you for viewing!

Have a safe and healthy New Year! Start things off right - today, tomorrow, or the next.
