Not content with just images of the game's models, they went and recreated all of the levels with clay, paper, and various other media. (http://s8.zetaboards.com/De_Nintenstudio/topic/338724/1/) Sure, they're not exactly to scale, but they're still amazing. Cool, Cool Mountain is just beautiful.
That's certainly original and well executed. I wonder how old these maps are. Nowadays, it seems to me nobody would bother with actual physical construction and would simply do the whole thing in CGI.
That is freaking awesome! And it can give me some idea what to do with the remaining two maps I'm making for the game.
