Happy Spoooooooky Month! I made this #classicgaming tribute to some of my favourite EGA adventure game magical villains. If you can name ‘em all, you might enjoy The Classic Gamers Guild on Facebook (CGG), a group I help moderate! #retrogames #adventuregame #halloween https://www.instagram.com/p/Boj7AeRnMsa/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=o6phmoud3jtx

I’m sad this didn’t sell, but @galleries1988 just shipped it to me from the #pixelhearts art show a couple years back and it looks insanely good. Thanks for inviting me to take part, @chogrin ! #gallery1988 #chogrin #mario #peach #princesspeach #nintendo
