Description
Peach DiD pic by request. Pencil & Paper.Bowser has decided to use an old fashioned method to get rid of Peach! And the Bullet Bills are armed and ready! How will she avoid this fate???
This was a request from smbssfan for a blindfold picture. I didn't really get into the idea until this scenario was presented and I really like the idea...a firing squad of bullet bills! Nice!
Some things I felt I should mention:
I had the idea in my head for the perspective early on, but I really messed around with the Bullet Bills in different spots rather than all in a row...after a lot of re-sketching, I think they are passable. Bowser's finger point was also decided early on.
I must point out that I am not a blindfold fan at all, despite that I don't draw eyes open often either...I like the DiD to be seeing what's happening and I think I get a better expression of fear that way...but I think Peach came out as I envisioned. I also tinkered with her dress, deciding on the older style rather than the newest Peach renditions.
The background is my take on the original SMB castle sprites. I considered making the post Peach is tied to one of the flagpoles at the end of the stages in SMB, but didn't have room really in my mind from the viewpoint I chose.
Let me know what you all think!

Great work on Peach's bondage. Though why does the Bullet Bills look like they have noses?

Even back when I drew this I was looking more at the classic sprites...in Super Mario Bros I believe Bullet Bill has a different color of a few pixels right at the tip (probably just to help the graphics since an almost black object looks out of place against other more vibrant colors)...so yeah, I could see where it may look like a "nose".
That being said, they never really looked that menacing to me in the game in terms of their eyes so I did play around with that too.

Perhaps she'll luck out and the Bullet Bills will collide with each other? We can only hope!
I love how you've done the gown in this one - I'm not a fan of blindfolds either, but you did a GREAT job of emoting.
The different angles on the BBs are great, but I can't shake the impression that the base of the wall behind Peach doesn't QUITE line up with the crenellations on top.

Yeah, I rushed on the tower, but I figured there was so little room to show it that it wouldn't hurt the rest.
The tower should have slightly been in 3-D...on this one I know how I could fix it.

haha i love the concept, pixelated blocky walls on a three dimensional plane I also like the concept of the picture, way to take something cliche and put a mario twist onto it. I say, great work drawing bill on all tose different angles, i figure that's a little tough when all you got to work with is 8 bit graphics. The inclusion of bowser's hand really completes the piece. Great work!

Well, credit has to go to smbssfan for the scenario idea; even more so because I am not a blindfold fan at all...but this is one time I could do it.
I can't draw Bowser, but his arm and hand? I can do that much
As for the different angle Bullet Bills? Drawing is HARD!!!

I've got the perfect way for Peach to save herself, or at least buy some time.
"Ehhh... I wish I could go skinnydipping one last time!"
"BULLETBILLS, STOP!!! We can't allow such a noble request slip past!"
Problem solved
