The heart wants what the heart wants.

Also a shout-out to yotsuya for helping me follow my dreams! I don't really care about uniqueness, but it will end up being unique!

Either way i'm looking for suggestions!

Option #7 : Go with a color scheme that matches that of the marquee.



Note : Kicked the Nintendo logo on the left side, this is a build for two games, not for a company.

Note #2 : As an afterthought, maybe add some bubbles to the CP, it looks a bit plain right now.

The coloring of the Mario and DK characters on the side art and Paulines hair color does not match what is on the CP and Marquee.

I'll double check that. Might just be a compression thing. Thanks!

Similarly, colouring on DK, Mario, and the barrels differs between the side art and the marquee/CP. And the DK text is red on the side, blue on the marquee.

The unification of the stripe colours between the marquee and CP was a good idea. You might want to do the same for the stripes on the DK side art.

Lots of updates, including Paulina hair changes, Mario outfit changes, sizing... Please let me know your opinion on red vs blue, or any combinaton of both (either buttons or DK lettering). Thanks!

Some bubbles in the marquee seem to be deformed. It's not very noticable on the screen, but it probably will stick out if you print it lifesize.
