BONUS:
Garfield and Yoshis, and the DK Family from memory.
Drew these as well, but I decided to prioritize the creatures because they are awesome.
Did something like this in the past, but I was bored so I gave it another shot.
Mario & Luigi as Kongs
(drawn in MS Paint, of course)
@himstdvent The Super Mario World manual's story says that it's a vacation the bros took with Peach after defeating Bowser in SMB3. It also suggests that the sunken ship level is an airship that Bowser crashed into Dinosaur Land after the events as well.
@juliusaurus -connected, more oval-shaped eyes
-the rings around the eyes are equivalent to the dark fur surrounding his eyes in his modern design
-his mouth is further down on his face, unlike modern DK
-his nose protrudes at the top of his snout (in this era, modern DK's nose was flat)
@juliusaurus Biggest issue here are the design discrepancies.
Cranky Kong strongly resembles his younger, classic design. DK Jr's design is very different from Modern DK. We've seen DK Jr as an adult in Super Mario Kart and Mario's Tennis, and it still very much resembles his child self.
Today's MS Paint art is the original DK Arcade Crew! (guess I could've included Stanley though 😬)
And I had time, so I edited them all to look as they do in present day
