"Soon your ascension to the dark side will be complete." Or at least that's the quote that had to have been going through Mario's mind as he injected the toad's body with 20,000 volts of mind lightning.created by *kay-too, shine a rather unique light on a famous video game icon that is synonymous with heroism and displays him on a more sinister and vengeful dimension during his mission to keep his princess safe from harm.The art style right off the bat looks really good. It gives off a faint resemblance to the art style from Super Paper Mario and given a more comic-like appearance. Its really striking and makes you want to just stare at it. The dynamic action taking place in the piece is also a spectacle in itself. The force lightning generating from Mario's vengeful fingers as it engulfs what appears to be a "toad yoda" has a nice dynamic feeling of action to the piece as well as the angle its displayed. It makes you feel as if the Toad is flying right past the side of your face as you stand at the sidelines watching the fight.Lighting usage, especially from the lighting is well done too. The electricity gives off an ominous glow as it arcs chaotically across the screen toward its defenseless target. The dark atmosphere of the scene really gives it that more dominant appearance on screen and can give the viewer the feeling of dread that must be going through the toad's mind.As it stands, the piece is a true work of art. The style is excellent as well as unique, the premise while funny is so well executed and engaging that the viewer may not want to take their eyes off of it. All in all, its a great piece. Good work *kay-too. e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s… " width="26" height="18" alt="" title="I salute you!"/>
