Chewed To Bits By Giant Turtles!
(marker & some digital retouching)
What you see here is the lineart of a recreation of the cover of Man's Life,a pulp magazine.It was made for RePulped (repulpedfeed),a new blog about new versions of old pulp covers.The final image is already posted there along with the original cover.
There's not much else to say,except that sure this kind of image brings a new point of view to the Super Mario games and their plot based upon the eternal struggle between men and turtles.Or something like that.
