Artist's Comments

I started a series called "Paper Mario Style," and this is the first submission! I knew when I started the project that I wanted to dedicate the first piece to my sweetheart, Ashley, so this first piece is her favorite Pokemon (or at least one of =P), Pikachu!

I actually made this for her birthday, but that was almost a month ago. =P But she loved it, and now I have the opportunity to post it. However, since this is Ash's present, I'm not going to release the other "paperchu" rendition to the public. XD

Obviously, in Paper Mario, the characters movements all involve simple "tweened" motions with the individual, static body parts, so I tried my best to compose pikachu in a way that would, in theory, allow for such movements. I think I came up with a nice result.

Hope you guys enjoy it!

Lovely, fits the style just about perfectly. The feet look a little small and the tail too pointy, but eh, this is still really good.

Reminds me of a younger version of pikachu. Again, nice job sir!

=P You have no idea how long it took to think of a way to make pikachu's body type work in Paper Mario style. x_X

Hmm. I actually traced the tail from official artwork of Pikachu. Maybe his artwork is inconsistent.

Maybe, but in all of the game sprites the tip of the tail is flat.
