Custom SMB3 Blocks and Items By: Cap'n Coconuts [W]
Want to use the SMB3 style but don't want people to hate your game for using stale graphics? Here's some items and blocks to help your game look a little more lively.

Now these are just blocks and items, not a full tileset--so I recommend you use this to supplement sprites and tiles made by others. If you have any suggestions for new content, post a comment with your suggestion!

Feel free to use this as long as you give credit!

UPDATE 2: Big switches, over 10 switch colors, noteblocks, and more!

This seems somewhat lazy to me; most of the sprites here look like just simple edits from the original SMB3 and SMW graphics. The mushrooms also look like they could use some better shading at the top. It's not bad, but it could use some improvement.

Hmm... well, I've got ideas for spicing up the fire flowers, but if you've got any specifics about other stuff I'll take it.

Like I said, most of the sprites here look like simple edits from SMB3 and SMW. Simple, but useful; I can't really think of much that would make them look better. Maybe give the yellow "!" Blocks an actual yellow color rather than the brownish-gold color (maybe use the same palette as the yellow switches). As for the Fire Flowers, the only thing that could use fixing in my eyes is that they seem to have eyebrows that make them look worried.

Many years ago, MajinPiccolo created two sheets of custom block concepts which are on TSR (you may have seen them before). You might be able to expand this sheet by trying something like that.

I submitted an update. Probably should have read your most recent comment before doing so, but whatever.

The eyebrows were actually an attempt to make the fire flowers look more feminine (I was trying to make eyelashes). But I guess you might have a point there. And yes, the ! blocks are admittedly a bit off-color compared to some of the switches.

Eh, whatever. That's a great thing about this place; you can do as many updates as you want.

I kinda had the feeling that might be what they were supposed to be; I did see you had written "she's a fiery personality", but I didn't think it had anything to do with the attempt at flaming female Fire Flowers (now there's an alliteration for ya!).

Update 2 has been sent to the queue, with big switches, more switch colors, and more. The sheet is now 464x400 pixels in size.

This will be very useful.

Ah, much better! I still think you should try and add some original block and item concepts, though. You know, mix it up a bit.
