Heyo! Mario kinnie here. Even for a character like the big red himself, he surprisingly doesn't have much in terms of kin or simply character specific content at all. Are there any suggestions or tips or maybe some sort of "starter kit" in a way? suggestions for playlists, moodboards- anything, really. Thanks again!
I can do my best. I'm not the most familiar with doing Starter Kits personally, but I'll do my best to provide tips/recommendations. If you want me to get more specific on any one of these bullet points feel free to send a follow-up
Starting out simple, I would recommend things in colors/textures associated with big red himself. Things like reds, denims, cotton. Flat cap/ivy hats as well if you're someone comfortable with them. It doesn't need to be over the top or loud if you're not particularly out and open about it publicly.
Playlist suggestions sound pretty straight forward but I'd recommend largely anything from the general Mario ost! Though maybe I'm biased and would also suggest leaning into things like Oki Dokii (The M&L battle theme of BIS). If you're looking beyond the ost however, I'd highly recommend songs like Can't Hold Us (Macklemore), Top of the World, etc. Really those classic up-beat kind of songs.
Don't be afraid to look on the positive side of things. I'm not saying stay peppy/upbeat all the time. That gets exhausting after a while. But even if it looks real messy, try and find even the *tiniest* good thing you can.
Star or fire-themed accessories. Need I say more?
If you're of an artistic inclination (or just have access to a good dress up game or two), try and stylize what you remember/connect with. It doesn't need to be down to the last stitch. Just something that makes you go "Oh. There I am."
Yeah this. Maybe isn't quite as impressive as some tip recommendations but. I hope it's helpful.
