Oh hell yes

This is badass

no truer words about this pic then what you just said.

Yup.

Oh god, he's absolutely GORGEOUS, Beth!
The hair, the jawline, the muscles, the chub, the tiny-itty-bitty-mushroom fasteners! <3 Absolutely awesome!

this is gonna go quickly, i can tell

Have to say I'm diggin' the long tail, haha.

I'd so buy a print of this

I don't produce new prints myself anymore, but I put this up as a print for sale over at DA if you're interested. :) http://lizzie-bean.deviantart.com/#/d51tcat

that's fine >w< DA prints are very nice and I'll have to get one then.
I'd try for the real thing, but I'm not going to AC

Now lets see Mario win

this is freakin awesome!

Sorta reminds me of Bowser from There Will Be Brawl...

So awesome. :O That's quite the badass turtle dragon~

badass bowser

I love the marker work on this especially the hair.

We need a ronin Mario...

o.o this scenario is amazing! <3

I've always pictured him as more one of those huge, grinning types with the heavy metal eight sided bats with the studs on it.

Thinking mario comes in from his triple jump flip. Lands an stands in full samurai red an blue armor with browser pulling away a cloak. Unsheathing his swords dual wielding to mario before thier epic battle begins.

This is really awesome... would not want to make him mad

Love this!

Samurai... They smile never... look real stern... Pretty Swords.

Bowser is eternally one of my heroes. Well done, Liz.

Nice, and a proper signature line too! I wish every artist added that at the bottom :) It'd make things so much easier.

I'e been forgetting to do that, but I'm trying to get back into doing so. Too many pictures get tossed around the internet without credit, figured it's kind of a necessity. ;^_^

Nicely done Liz. Do keep up the great work.

If Bowser is a Samurai, what does that make Mario? Gaijin?

OH GOD DAYUM!

This is f*cking awesome and very original!!! Brilliant work!!

This is really bloody fantastic. Seems we have something a little bit in common:

Very nice piece!
However, can I point out that the swords should be turned around? It is a very common mistake when drawing katana, this way, the edge would carve on the scabbard as the swords are inside and lose sharpness :).
Keep rocking.

I'm so glad someone besides me noticed that! I can be so anal about that particular detail that it makes me wonder if anyone else really cares. XD

Hm. Wouldn't say any of those categories really fit me all that well. I'm more of a know-it-all of a very specific and esoteric topic who generally keeps it to himself and just so happened to be excited to notice someone else shared that category of knowledge.

That having been said, I'd meant no offense by my comment. I even left a more pertinent one below that wasn't in reply to  Daidoji_Usagi. Seeing as you only responded with the link, rather than any words of your own, it's difficult for me to tell what your intentions were. But it certainly seems like you were singling me out for the purpose of ridicule, something quite rude and detrimental to my honest attempts to participate legitimately in the community.

WOW *w* Beautiful I love so much :D

There should be like a cutscene in the next Mario game where like this is what he thinks of himself in his fantasies, that would be an awesome bit of character development on his part I'd love to see that, like his self image.

DUDE he came out awesome!!!!

I agree, totally epic!

Oh wow - that is trippy. ^_^ Bowser can make just about anything look double-sexy. Nice piece, and love the serious look and super flamy eyebrows on him.

Oh my paws he's gorgeous. -clings- wow

You ever play Breath of Fire II?
He kind of has Rand's face. .w.

Dat gut.

I REALLY wish I could go to AC and buy this. Curse being across the Atlantic ocean

Huh. That is quite an interesting re-interpretation of the character! I think you pulled it off quite well! Betting this will sell for a premium. Best of luck~ ^_^

the most interesting bowser i've seen

May I ask, what kind of gel pen do you use?
Thanks :D

my white, silver, and gold pens are all uniball signo broad pens. they're the best gel pens I've found, particularly the white, though they're not available in a huge range of colors.

Ive gotta check this out, have seen amazing work with it, thank you so much for your quick and kind reply :)

Well!

just when I thought you couldn't get any cooler, Liz.

I gotta say... this look really works fer him... kudos! :)

Nazo no Murasamejou?

I thought I faved this when I first saw it. Why didn't I?

Link related.

Boswer is awesome as a samurai. ^^

I remember seeing this in the AnthroCon art show and it was really amazing. I really love the idea and the theme, it really looks incredible.

Did you give permission for that to be on KnowYourMeme? http://knowyourmeme.com/photos/3167.....rnate-universe

Wow, I love your spinoff Samurai Bowser. He looks so wise haha. But really, I especially love how you styled his hair into the musashi-esq styled ponytail (I call them that xD). And the choice of clothing looks nice too. Just very nice work, it looks amazing. ^^

freaking epic bowser lets see the plumbers take his peach away with time XD

I totally agree with ^^. Epic pic!

Aww he look so sexy and manly like this, also waring those clothes exelent
Wonderful art dear, the details in the clothes and hair is stunning, fantastic colouring too, I love it

Given how Bowsers's castle looks in the new "Mario Odyssey" Game this look fits perfectly.
