Draygon?

How is that gonna work?

Clawgrip obviously. And that gate placed in the wrong place, it's supposed to be like this:

Changed the bushes, how do they look now?

Here's an update to that SM3DW Bullet Bill Express:


I'm leaving the wheels till last, mainly because they are going to be the most difficult thing to make on this train, especially if they rotate. I'm slowly shading the main body at the moment and then I'll add the fence on the top and start the carriages.

Hey, this looks very nice. I really like this Bullet Bill Express so far. Since this is still on creation, I can see that on the back where a Box and a Windows are that it kind of lacks a little bit of shading or something but maybe it can also stay as it is. I am not sure. Still, very creative work you got there.

Looks great so far Squishy Rex, can't wait to see it finished!

I've really only got the front end shaded so far, but I am slowly working towards that box, but like you I have a feeling that it does look good as is. I'll definitely keep a back up, just in case I change my mind once the shaded version is finished.

Thanks Zant, I hope to have it finished within the week, so hopefully you have to wait too long.

a level named Angry, Angry Dersert that i'm working on

It doesn't seem to be angry as of yet. Looks nice so far. Looking forward to more of this Level.

thanks, the name might need changing

Well, the Angry Sun might do the trick. That was what I first thought of when I read the level name that you posted.

The Angry Sun would be impossible to execute properly in SMBX.

I am aware of that, but a flying enemy set to "Chase" would suffice most people. Otherwise there is always the Lakitu version, that you could have throwing Fire Snakes or Bound Fires like in the Desert Hills course of Mario Kart DS.

Or, you could take the fire wart fireball and you could have the angry sun throw that instead. That's what I did for a cancelled level.

this was what was going to be in the level at first but do to my inability to find a way to implement the sun as it was in SMB3, it was dropped. now i'll probably re-add it now that i know a few more tricks. it would be constructed out of a donut block and a invisible para-koopa.

Link's Star Challenge (only the first room):

Looks very interesting so far. And finally a Level starring with Link but if you gonna use a Character Block, the second player can't get it to play. Looking forward to this Level.

Well, after working on this all day, I finally have a mock-up of the Bullet Bill Express. Please ignore the grey under-carriage and the missing link pin between the two large driving wheels, they are the next to be done.


I just have to animate the wheels, shade the under-carriage and draw the link pin and the engine will be finished. I will then move onto the flatbed carriages and the boxcar. So what do you think?

The bullet bill express is great Squishy Rex.(i'm gonna to use it when it finish)

Or you could just make it replace either a Lakitu or Parakoopa/Goomba and replace the rinkas from metroid with fireballs and attach them to the sun and done.(Of course use a Generator)
