I think your deviation was great B3

But this is Furaffinity, it's a Submission -laughtrack-

Thanks though! Glad you like it!

I don't think it could've been a session of drawing mariothings if not for one giant stomping shoe B3

Also sweaty goombas B3

Where would Mario be without giant shoes? ... Probably still climbing up to give Donkey Kong what for!

nothin like sweaty mushroom guys to make a picture really stand out BD

Nope, not gonna forgive you for the deviation. Because I explicitly said you were supposed to interpret it and visualize it any way you want.
And I like it! Heheh, Anthro Goombas look a bit silly without noses.
She looks so happy, hopping around (and not caring too much about the Goombas around her).
Having leaves to cover her more naughty bits is nice too.

I find it interesting you took this route for the drawing. As I said in my request could be visualized in many ways. And for some reason, I expected something really nitty-gritty; don't know why.
In a sense, I'm happy you went with happy can cutesy, though! That's much more in line with my style, in the end! (And also more in line with Mario in general.)

I can't help it: I take even requests seriously! Sometimes I trawl through the requester's favorites to get a better idea of what they like, even... It's in my personality to try to please people, I suppose! XD

I actually do a lot of anthros without noses, I don't think they look very silly! But, I am probably used to it... I can definitely see how they WOULD look silly XD

YOU ENTITLED TANOOMBA UPPERCRUST, ELITISTS STOMPING ON US WORKING CLASS GOOMBAS. This picture is actually a visualization of the political structure among Bowser's minions: the proletariat is stomped on while the upper class gimmick enemies enjoy themselves. See, I DID take it nitty-gritty! (joking, joking)

Thank you! I'm glad you like the censoring leaves, I was rather proud of the idea myself! (to toot my own horn)

My drawings do tend to lean towards a somewhat dark, semi-realistic, serious route, it makes sense to expect I think! Though for whatever reason, I only ever imagined this drawing being a cute one! I suppose I had your tastes in mind, though I really just drew the first thing I envisioned!
