This is just a blog full of whatever I'm interested in at the time. I'm a Super Mario fan. Yay. :D I blog mostly Mario, Rayman, Sonic, Mega Man, and Kirby stuff!

IDK Why I never thought to make this post before now but better late than never!

You can find me on these other sites!

And if you’d like to support the art I make or just wanna gimme a few bucks, I have a ko-fi too!: https://ko-fi.com/duskcrystal

take figures out of their boxes btw. sew patches on your favorite jacket. go to bed with your favorite plushes. wear the pants you usually save for special occasions. draw something cool on your wall. put a sticker on your laptop. dye your hair and pierce your lips. glass is meant to break, metal is meant to rust. items are meant to be used. that's how the world knows that somebody loved them.

When my aunt died of covid, we had to clean out a lot of stuff that she was saving. Foods she was going to try, she was a great chef, spices she'd never opened or only used sparingly, lotions and bath things she hadn't used. After she died I started making a point of using things up: the good vanilla that has to be imported, that we finally found more of, we'd used barely an ounce before she passed away. Even though we love it. I just got my family new bottles of it for Christmas because we used one up. We enjoyed that happiness. Sometimes I still get the impulse to wait for something special, or awful, to save nice things for celebration or comfort. The phrase that always echoes in my mind is "use the good vanilla". And I have been (burning the candles, squirting the body wash, dissolving the bath bombs, putting the saffron in things). And it's been great. Use the good vanilla.

in light of Biker Wario also just so happening to have a ponytail in Mario Kart World, have Wario and Terry Bogard together! 🏍️🧢

in actuality as of the time of the references, pinpointing the logo on Warios' cap was actually quite tough! so as to avoid inaccuracies in the near future in case we do get much clearer references of his outfit, I just left it as it is, the red and white still being very much faithful to the cap! There was in fact another reference pinpointing Warios' lil new ponytail also! He's got some very badass shades also even though they aren't present in this lil drawing

I hate to do this but I'm in a bad situation... My therapist is no longer in network with my insurance, and I didn't get the news until after I had a session that they wouldn't cover for. So now I have a high paying bill on my hands as someone who doesn't have income.

I'm asking for help. My Kofi is open for donations, but I'm also opening up commissions. Any amount helps greatly.

A year ago, I drew the design for the Rayman plush, and one of my dreams came true.

Thank you so much Youtooz, for this opportunity, and also to the Rayman community for the support you gave me for this design.

Hopefully, in the future, I can design more plushies of other Rayman characters; it would be an honor!
