Title: Re: Sidewalk Mario (pic) Post by: PDorr3 on September 05, 2005, 09:40:16 AM Yeah I was looking at some old topics and saw this one.
Did you haveto do an outline before you did this or just draw it out as you went along? Title: Re: Sidewalk Mario (pic) Post by: den68 on September 05, 2005, 11:58:58 AM I did a rough outline and then we colored it in and I thickened up the lines.
you did some digging to pull this thread up. Title: Re: Sidewalk Mario (pic) Post by: CatchFiveBats on September 05, 2005, 01:57:26 PM Very, very cool! You should send that into Nintendo Power or some other gaming mag.
Title: Re: Sidewalk Mario (pic) Post by: Speedy_NES on September 05, 2005, 03:03:43 PM Quote Very, very cool! You should send that into Nintendo Power or some other gaming mag. I agree!

Title: Re: Sidewalk Mario (pic) ** & SONIC!** Post by: den68 on September 06, 2005, 06:15:28 AM the only problem is I now have little chalk dog foot prints all over the house.

Buy your own!!!! Title: Re: Sidewalk Mario (pic) ** & SONIC!** Post by: Zimbacca on September 07, 2005, 04:29:29 PM Another awesome one man.
Title: Re: Sidewalk Mario (pic) ** & SONIC!** Post by: sinning.dragon on September 10, 2005, 03:48:15 PM Holy crap freaking cool! Too bad chalk goes away after a while. :/
Title: Re: Sidewalk Mario (pic) ** & SONIC!** Post by: Zimbacca on September 10, 2005, 05:34:31 PM Spray paint works so much better if you want to keep it.
Title: Re: Sidewalk Mario (pic) ** & SONIC!** Post by: PDorr3 on September 12, 2005, 10:27:12 AM gotta make sure you do it carefuly with spray paint. I would map it out in chalf first, then put in the paint.
I bet if you did that and sent it in to some videogame magazines atleast one of them would feature it in their magazine. Title: Re: Sidewalk Mario (pic) ** & SONIC!** Post by: Izret101 on September 12, 2005, 11:40:45 AM Yea you should send the Mario one into Nintendo Power.
They would probably put it in there. I don't know if they would put in the sonic one but Nintendo and Sega are butt buddies now so you never know. Title: Re: Sidewalk Mario (pic) ** & SONIC!** Post by: den68 on September 12, 2005, 12:52:37 PM that drawing is still on my driveway. if it doesn't rain by this weekend I may have to get out the hose.

Too bad chalk goes away after a while. :/ Yeah, I hate it when the damn sticks of chalk just get up and walk away without warning. :-/ Title: Re: Sidewalk Mario (pic) ** & SONIC!** Post by: sinning.dragon on September 12, 2005, 02:36:19 PM Quote Yeah, I hate it when the damn sticks of chalk just get up and walk away without warning.  :-/ |D |D |D |
