Description It's-a Me!

I've been scouring the internet to see if anybody has done some REAL Paper Mario art / crafts, with no luck. So, here's my start to it.

I'm planning to make an entire diorama scene, and I figured I'd start with Mario. My mom says he's adorable. He makes a really nice desk ornament, too.

Sorry if I did a horrible job cutting him out, I don't know where any exacto-knives are, and I'm not much of a crafty guy. Unless you count giant swords and axes made out of PVC pipe and duct tape.

And ew, I just noticed the giant hair in the background. I think it's mine, actually. Sorry about that.

Paper Mario is copyright Nintendo / Intelligent Systems.

Sorry I meant to add on. This is pretty cool I'm surprised how hard he is to draw. Maybe I'm just a retard though...

Paper Mario....TAKEN LITERALLY. That's just awesome. I dunno I seem to have a think with paper drawings standing around in a photo. How'd you manage to make him stand? I guess something behind him or, whatever method you will be using to create your dioramas. And I agree with your mom, he is cute here in your sway style. Lol @ your cuttery EQ and skills.

I used to make characters out of felt or Model Magic all the time. I haven't done it in a long time, though.

DrFurball [2008-07-06 05:14:30 +0000 UTC]

This is awesome. I especially like how you didn't copy the style exactly, but made it your own. And it's freakin' sweet overall.

ArcZero In reply to DrFurball [2008-07-06 18:08:44 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, the only thing holding me back for so long was that I couldn't seem to capture the exact look of Paper Mario's style... I need legs! But I'm really happy with how he looks now that I finally went and did it. Thanks much!

DO IT

This is the most fun I've had with paper and cardboard in years!

XD But I might be lazy and just print out a real Paper Mario picture and call it good. XD

ArcZero In reply to Teeter-Echidna [2008-07-05 20:09:17 +0000 UTC]

Well, you could just as easily do that and cut out cardboard to attach it to... But then, you should do a whole diorama! I just felt like drawing my own.

Teeter-Echidna In reply to ArcZero [2008-07-05 20:36:09 +0000 UTC]

But I suck at drawing DX
I tried drawing Paper Mario before and it turned out... Eeehish.

ArcZero In reply to Teeter-Echidna [2008-07-06 18:11:00 +0000 UTC]

Aww, it can't be that bad. All you do is make him real compact, no legs, just shoes... and a real big, round head. You should just do it anyway! I was avoiding drawing Mario in the Paper style for ages, because I hated how it looked... but when you cut it out and stick it on cardboard, it magically becomes so much cuter than you anticipated.

X3 Nice. I don't see how it's it's standing up, so I'm assuming you're pretty good at this. XD
... From that, have you ever considered doing Paper Children? D:

ArcZero In reply to Lasilla [2008-07-05 02:45:36 +0000 UTC]

Well, it's stood up with a folded cardboard panel... compliment accepted and appreciated.
Paper Children? I am unfamiliar with that term / concept.

Lasilla In reply to ArcZero [2008-07-05 02:55:47 +0000 UTC]

Well, you're good at cutting the edges and hiding the cardboard. X3
Paper children is sorta what you did, except the character is interacting with a hand, a controller, or something of the sort.
Kinda like this: [link] and this: [link]

ArcZero In reply to Lasilla [2008-07-05 21:04:24 +0000 UTC]

I like those! I'll have to do some more of this kind of thing with some interaction...

...now to think of something clever.
