Author Topic: Touchable Mario art?  (Read 12697 times)

I thought that was one of my best topic titles ever, anyways, have you made any Mario fan art that you can actually feel? As in, clay Mario stuff, (and yes, I have seen that video on TMK's site), or maybe paper art that can stand up? Well, you know, I've made clay Mario stuff, but it failed pretty badly.

If anyone's seen that pic of me with a 1-up as a head, I made that out of cardboard and graph paper.  With the aid of scissors and colored pencils, of course.  What I did was squint at the computer screen at the "1-up = life" T-shirt sample, copy it onto graph paper so that 1 square = one pixel.  Then I did it again but so 4 squares =  one pixel.  I attached it to an old fishing pole I had, and then made a cloud out of white cardboard and held it in front of me.  I was a fishin' lakitu for halloween!  Of course, no one recognized me except for one kid and his mom.  They made me so happy!  One lady thought I was "the little cloud that cried"...

Anyway, after halloween I threw out the costume but kept the 1-up on my desk shelf.

You may wonder why they're both Luigi. The paper one was gonna be Mario, but it looked way too tall. I tried making an SMAS mario out of legos baut couldn't work around the floating single pixels. Then I didn't have enough red for a NES Mario so it went to Luigi.

Wouldn't "3-D Mario Art" be a more apt title for this topic?

"Physical Mario Art" is more appropriate because anyone can make 3-D Mario art on a computer.

I made a lego yoshi that was flat on two lego plates, not like Bird Person's which looks cooler.

I remember in an old mailbag, a person showed/telled how he found a large terri cotta pipe and painted it the right shade of green so it looked just like a Super Mario pipe.  I wish I had one of those.

Lego Luigi's not perfect; from the back you can see that a lot of blocks are dirty, and I din't have enough... single pixels. I actually made all the red & black outlines doubled so it'd look normal from the side.

They're kinda distorted, but you could tell what they are.

I like the wall of Bird Person's room.

I made a ?-block cube in art class once.. I still have it, but no access to a digital camera.

We also had an assignment for making drawings using the protractor. Mine were mostly Mario based. I'll scan those some time.. :)
