Butch Hartman revealed his process for creating the iconic Super Mario villain in the one-minute TikTok video. Hartman began by sketching out the rough shape of the character on a blank sheet of paper. He then added the details that made Boswer famous, such as a spiny shell, horns, and other dragon-like elements. The video concluded with the finished design, revealing a slightly goofier-looking villain that would fit in with the Fairly Oddparents characters.
Unsurprisingly, this recent drawing by Butch Hartman piqued the interest of many TikTok users. More than 9,000 people have liked the drawing since it was posted on the social media platform. In addition, many people praised the artist in the comments, saying they liked the character’s cartoonish appearance.
Butch Hartman’s impressive artwork has earned him a sizable social media following for quite some time. Other works by him include reimaginings of Arthur Morgan from Red Dead Redemption 2 and Sephiroth from Final Fantasy 7. It will be interesting to see if the famous animator recreates more Super Mario characters in the Fairly OddParents style. Fans who commented on Hartman’s work, for example, expressed a desire to see drawings of Wario, Peach, and Toad, among others. While it is difficult to predict what Hartman will share in the coming days, one thing is certain: whatever he draws next will be worth seeing.
