>Back to maze

I don't know what is wrong with me (besides the things that are wrong with me) that explains my love for this anthropomorphic weapon thing.

What is this thing?


Bowyer is one of several weapon-themed enemies from Super Mario RPG. He is based on a bow and shoots arrows using his entire body. It's very goofy.
Mario and company fight him in the Forest Maze near Rose Town, where Bowyer has been terrorizing the population by hitting them with arrows, causing them to freeze in place (Harmlessly. This is a Mario game).

The way I draw him is pretty different from how he actually looks, which is like this:
Bowyer sprite Bowyer old model Bowyer. new model

My design takes a lot of inspiration from Lovespellart's Bowyer and Loopy-Lupe's Bowyer.


A Timeline


2017
I watch several playthroughs of Super Mario RPG and doodle the characters. I also enjoy reading Loopy-Lupe's Seven Star Comics.
I also wrote a fanfiction... it is bad but I will link it anyway!

2018
Several sequels to the fanfiction appear. They are way shorter and the first one was already short. You can find them at the link above.

2019-2022
Fan-art continues sporadically. Actually, you can see all my SMRPG art over the years on my tumblr here

2023
SMRPG REMAKE!!! This inspires a lot of art most notably the Forest Maze Echoes video.

2024
MissD476 on tumblr creates an AU centered around what the world of weapons might look like. Inspires a bunch of art including more mediocre fanfiction and The Other End of the Sword video.

2025
I make this page. lol.


There seems to be more to this shrine, actually. Keep going this way?
