King Koopa Through the Years

Slight update to an oldie that I still like.
Be sure to check out my tribute the King Koopa's voice actor: fav.me/dbh30ny

I drew this image using an animation cel of King Koopa as the inspiration, and it shows his different color schemes used during each of the Super Mario series (plus one of Koopa as Bowser). The larger image uses my preferred shade of green plus Bowser's set of shell spikes.

I will admit that even though I am one of the world's top Bowser fanatics I have always liked King Koopa. I grew up with him on the 3 different Super Mario series that were on tv during the late 80's and early 90's. The voice of King Koopa (preformed by Harvey Atkin) and his personality were spot on as a Bowser surrogate, though he never looked quite right.
