Mario Christmas Mural Video

Daniel LeBlanc writes "Just in time for the Christmas Season, I drew an NES 8-Bit styled mural on the side of my high school. The mural consists of Yoshi pulling a sled with a Santa Mario and an Elf Toad." Here are both the video of the mural coming together a full photo gallery of the mural.

The whole thing was done using chalks.

Music from the video is on OCRemix.org

The page with the video linked to the OneUps' MySpace page [myspace.com] for the music. The download link there doesn't work, but if you'd like a decent quality MP3 of it, it was posted on OCRemix.org [ocremix.org] some time ago.

I'll give you Yoshi being introduced in the 16 bit world, but he still made an 8bit appearance with Yoshi's Cookie on the original NES during the time when Nintendo was still making games for the NES but switching their focus to the SNES. so, 8-bit is still accurate but slightly misleading.

>Not just any graffiti, 8-bit graffiti.

Yeah, and any money they make of it is going to a charitous cause!

Re:Yoshi 8-bit

True, but he later appeared on the NES in Yoshi [wikipedia.org], so he's still a valid 8-bit character.

How's that for nit-picky? :)

huh? It's freaking chalk, get a clue.

Not only that, but considering they had permission, that removes it from the graffiti category and pushes it into the alternative art category. Then there's the fact that they had some pics showing them cleaning it up afterwards. Oh wait, that would require actually RTFA....nevermind I forgot where I was....again.
