Big Mario Kart Collab-Start Your Engines

Almost a year ago I was invited to take part in this collaboration project that my good friend Dirk was throwing.

Its a collaboration done with over 40 of the finest artists you can find on DeviantART. Independent and people who already work in the industry came forth for the project from all over the world.

Based on Mario Kart, a series of go-kart-style racing video games developed by Nintendo as a series of spin-offs from its trademark Mario series of platformer adventure-style video games. Each chosen artist had the privilege to choose a driver and do their own rendition of the character.


Birdo is one of my favorite Nintendo characters, when I can't play as Bowser, Im Birdo. I finished this a couple days after he started the project back last October, so its really refreshing to be able to upload it.

After months of preparation it is finally viewable for the public!



Its an absolute MUST to full view the original picture and check out everyone's interpretations of each driver. Their all fantastic!
