Super Papercraft Mario Bros Should Avoid Fire Flowers
We've heard of Super Paper Mario, but this is ridiculous!
There's a skill that goes into the construction of papercraft models that eludes me. It just doesn't make sense - how can little sheets of paper suddenly turn into Hero of Time himself [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=79Uo2EG1_so]? I have no idea, but that doesn't stop it from being utterly incredible.
The image you see here is the work of deviantART artist TouchFuzzyGetDizzy [http://touchfuzzygetdizzy.deviantart.com/art/Super-Smash-Brothers-164509728?q=&qo=] (props on the Yoshi's Island reference, man), who clearly worked hard creating these paper versions of gaming's most famous dynamic duo. Mario stands 40cm tall and Luigi is 50cm - which our resident Brit helpfully tells us is about equal to a bit over a foot and a foot and a half, respectively - so while these papercraft sculptures aren't exactly life-size, it doesn't make them any less impressive.
The artist has the patterns for the brothers linked on their deviantART page, though no instructions. Still, if you're a papercraft wizard, you probably don't need no stinkin' instructions, right? Right.
Man, I wish that the artist would do more of the Nintendo cast like this. Think about it: You could set up the most awe-inspiring real-life Super Smash Bros. diorama of all time!
