Started adding the red parts of the Mario body.. I didn't add all the red at ones, but started at top and went down :) Started with the red hat.
step 3 of 5
Adding the brown parts too. and like last time I added the logical parts first, maybe went to another color and back to brown.. This is the final brown parts.

All the colored parts added to a pretty cool finished mario 8 bit version.
