In terms of texturing, these Bob-Ombs were relatively simple. It was in the editing and manipulating of the geometry to offer varying expressions where the real challenge lay. I wanted some to flinch away, others to show anger and others to look up in despair. In the game, these little critters would almost explode in such a situation… the one closest to the camera has just done that! As you can see from the screenshot off Super Mario Bros 3, a lot of improvising needed to be done to reach the final result. Date completed: April 2002 Back           Forward
