So on Wednesday it was my boyfriend's birthday. We didn't do much, but we did go out to dinner with our friend Blake (who is moving next week, sadly) to a place called Jax Fish House in Boulder. Steve really wanted to try it out because the head chef had won popular television program Top Chef. As it turns out, the food at Jax Fish House is mostly pretty good (Blake's entree was kind of over-salted though; don't get the scallops), but not anywhere near how good it should have been for being so expensive. I am reasonably satisfied, but I do not need to return to Jax Fish House. These are my feelings about Jax Fish House.
Anyway, besides the overpriced dinner, I bought Steve a copy of Carcassonne (this is a board game that is said to be especially good with two players). I also made him this fine card:
I don't know why I drew those terrifying, nightmarish toes on the Goomba. Or on Toad (below). It was kind of a whim thing.
The toes don't frighten as much as you think, though I believe the cannon foot-morphism for all denizens of the mushroom kingdom is a sort of ambiguous nub. Awesome card, by the way.
I think you're right about the usual feet. I drew all the characters from memory, so perhaps some of the weird deviations in anatomy and costume can be excused, but I knew what I was doing when it came to drawing those creepy, creepy feet.
Are you dating Scott Pilgrim? Because that is what this card appears to be depicting.
