First submitted to the Internet in 2014.
Slowly trying to get my older stuff on here as well, so that there's more unity amongst my various galleries. I don't really like a lot of the color choices in these (and how I didn't really shade Francis's fanny pack, whoops), but I also love how gross I drew Francis here so up he goes.
Francis from Super Paper Mario, Chuck Quizmo from the first Paper Mario, and Ballyhoo/Bigtop from Mario Party 8.
I like that Mario characters can range from "a stack of Toads", "blue Toad", "Toad with light on head", or "Toad in a chef outfit" to "there's a talking worm that can use his hat to teleport and can suddenly warp time and space to put you on his game show". What a fun if radically fluctuating in quality series.
Francis was meant for a Paper Mario collab and a "Mario boss" contest, the other two were just for fun.
