simple Super Mario Bros. 2 Biscornu

Post by SaraAusSD »

I was making my good friend a Wolfman biscornu when I realized I needed one myself, so I threw a simple one together. I enitially decided on Bird-o, being my favorite Mario World character, but I had no idea what I should do for the other side. I eventually decided to go for all 4 of the SMB2 heros about to Game Over. While I wanted to find buttons that resembled Mario's Mushroom or even a Super Mario Star :mush/ :1up , I couldn't find any, or at least any I liked. In any case, this is what I came up with! :Mario

Very nicely done! I like the borders, the orientation of the characters, and the little "explosions" in between the playable characters.

(I had to google a biscornu, because I had no idea what it was or what it's purpose could be.)

It looks really nice. The dying characters are a nice touch :D

Those are ridiculously nice! Would you be able to share the patterns please? I've never done a biscornu and I would love to try those... Thanks! :nod

I too had to google to find out what it was

"A biscornu is an interesting little eight-sided pincushion that has become very popular in recent months. The word biscornu (sometimes written biscournu) is derived from a French adjective, meaning skewed, quirky or irregular."

thats an awesome idea i really like it!!
