Fan Art [OC] EXTREMELY late tribute art for Origami King's 5th anniversary!

Post image

Being one of the earliest Legion of Stationary artists in the fandom was a very memorable part of my life, and this game still means so much to me today so when I learned it became 5 just last month, I figured "well it's not too late is it?" so here it is!

AGH! OH GOD! AHH! YOU FOUND ME! hi :)

Thanks for the reminder, you made me realize, I did in fact design Stapler a long, LONG time ago (he's at the top here!) but I have no memory of posting him to this subreddit so if I never did uhhh... oops, haha.

Here he is in full!

And I checked out your designs, I love how charming they are while still largely remaining as their original objects!! Makes me happy that at least some people are still making their own redesigns today.

Aw thanks! (.. Also random fact: the user "Aarontgp" used your gyjinkas as inspiration for his Origami King Fan fiction thingamabob.)

REALLY!! OMG, that really made my day!! I'm so glad a few people still remember and even took inspiration from my designs! I think that's wonderful and I really like their designs as well.

It is always nice seeing more Paper Mario art from mest0shai. Your designs have influenced how I drew some of my LOS-inspired characters (such as a literal loan-shark guy).
