I think it looks awesome! It's a lot of green. Only a smidgen of red. Maybe a Mario invinciblity star or two, like one on each side of the totem pole at different heights.

Have you tried facing the black shelled baddie (I have no idea what his name is) in the other direction? I'm just wondering if that would balance the design (raccoon tale would curve left with baddie face curving on the right). I really like it the way it is though so you may not need to change it.

I'd suggest putting the Starman on the top or maybe the Fire Flower. That's a really cool design though.

It would look cool to have a Lakitu on top! :)

Neat idea, I look forward to the revision. I agree with the comment that there needs to be more red on the top and I'm not so sure about mario's position on the cloud - the two little red dots of the mouth look odd.
