I was really in the mood to draw Mr. L because I finally got my hands on Super Mario Manga Mania! (Which no one told me HAD THE MR. L CHAPTER in it lmfao). So I thought I would redraw one of my favorite panels from that chapter for funsies to go along with this!
I really wanted to experiment more with rendering and colors with this one, doing a complete 180 from my Rosalina piece and going for a more pop art style. I downloaded some screentone brushes and honestly I am in love with them I'll probably use them more!
Anyways I love Mr. L so so so much and I'm really happy with how I've been drawing him lately he's so skrunkly dshgjkfdnhgfh.
Hi sorry I saw your tags on my art and just wanted to let you know that manga panel is from Super Mario-Kun! Unfortunately it hasn't released in English so the only things we have from the Super Paper Mario arch is the Mr. L chapter and the Overthere Chapter translated in the book Super Mario Manga Mania 😔. Super Mario-Kun is a long running gag manga that covers more comedic retellings of many Mario games ^^. The humor can be very crude at times though! Just a warning if that isn't really your thing ^^ (it does have a Spanish and French release in the works though!) Hope this helps!
It did help! I found a copy on the internet! : X
It's not quite the same translation as the one you have, and there are some jokes I don't quite understand due to the language & cultural barrier, but it is an english translation.
The comic gave me whiplash, man. Sometimes there's moments like this:
¡He vuelto! Esta vez he hecho un fan art basado en mi adaptación favorita de cualquier videojuego: El manga de Mario, Super Mario Kun (conocido en España como Super Mario Aventuras).
He intentado ser fiel lo máximo posible al estilo de dibujo de Yukio Sawada, el autor del manga, y creo que los resultados han sido satisfactorios en la medida de mis posibilidades.
Espero que os guste. Por cierto, lamento informaros de que lo más seguro es que vuelva a ausentarme durante unas semanas debido a exámenes y otras milongas de la Universidad. Mientras tanto, cuidaos, disfrutad de la vida y del arte de otros artistas en esta plataforma. ¡Gracias por el apoyo!
