Mario: Bob Hoskins

Description

I already did a memorial for him, but I think this would be a more proper tribute (especially since this picture is better than the other one).

Bob Hoskins, a British actor who was born on October 26th of 1942, died in April of this year (2014). Bob was famous for many roles, but his most mixed-received one was his role as plumber "Mario Mario" in the 1993 live-action film adaptation of the video game series, "Super Mario Bros: The Movie". 

Even with the film having a bad run in theaters, both financially and critically, Bob was praised for his role as the Italian/Brooklyn-ish plumber. I mean, aside from the cartoon show, he made a character personality for Mario before the video games reached 3D platforming. So where was his Oscar nomination?

Anyway, I did my best to make the art look great, with my style and proper anatomy. 

Nintendo and Hollywood Pictures.

The anatomy needs work. For example, the thumb on his right hand is on the wrong side. Your sense of structure seems to be improving, but I would recommend looking at some hand drawing tutorials. The right arm seems to be dislocated or something.
