'''''Quick Draw''''', referred to as the '''''Play Nintendo Quick Draw activity''''' in the title of its web page, is an [[List of miscellaneous Play Nintendo activities|activity]] on the [[Play Nintendo]] website.<ref>[https://play.nintendo.com/activities/play/draw-mushroom-kingdom-characters/ Play Nintendo Quick Draw activity].

They can either do so from memory or by tracing over a guide.

==Overview==
[[Category:Super Smash Bros. Brawl special moves]]
The activity has two modes: in "Memorize" mode, the user is momentarily shown a black-and-white model of a ''Super Mario'' element which they must then draw entirely from memory; in "Trace" mode, the user can draw directly over the model.
[[Category:Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U special moves]]
 
[[Category:Super Smash Bros. Ultimate special moves]]
After choosing a mode, the user must select a preferred model image from a scrolling list. A scaled-up version of the chosen image is then shown on-screen; in "Memorize" mode, the image is shown for 10 seconds before the user is automatically transferred to the drawing canvas, while in "Trace" mode, the user can study the image indefinitely and can advance to the canvas on their own via the "I'm ready" button. (At any point from this screen onwards, there is a "Start over" button that sends the user back to the activity's title screen while clearing any progress they have made.)
 
Once at the canvas screen, a timer starts that measures how long it takes the user to draw the model image. The user employs a pointing device (mouse, drawing tablet etc.) to draw on the canvas, and is offered a number of drawing tools, including an eraser mode, a slider that changes the thickness of their strokes, an undo button, a redo button, and a button to clear their current progress. The user may click the "I'm done" button to advance to a screen that shows the content of their canvas alongside their chosen model, as well as the amount of time elapsed while on the canvas screen. Here, the user can click "Try again" to draw the model again or "Next" to advance to a screen where they can download their drawing.
 
==Model images==
Before the user is prompted to study their chosen image, there is an intermediary screen that shows a brief description of the character or item depicted. Although the image is mainly shown in black-and-white throughout the activity, on this screen, the user can switch to a colored variant of the image.
 
The following are the images that can be selected as models in this activity, each listed with its corresponding description.

Quick Draw, referred to as the Play Nintendo Quick Draw activity in the title of its web page, is an activity on the Play Nintendo website.[1] In this activity, users are prompted to recreate a picture of a Super Mario character or item as quickly as possible. They can either do so from memory or by tracing over a guide.

Overview[edit]

The activity has two modes: in "Memorize" mode, the user is momentarily shown a black-and-white model of a Super Mario element which they must then draw entirely from memory; in "Trace" mode, the user can draw directly over the model.

After choosing a mode, the user must select a preferred model image from a scrolling list. A scaled-up version of the chosen image is then shown on-screen; in "Memorize" mode, the image is shown for 10 seconds before the user is automatically transferred to the drawing canvas, while in "Trace" mode, the user can study the image indefinitely and can advance to the canvas on their own via the "I'm ready" button. (At any point from this screen onwards, there is a "Start over" button that sends the user back to the activity's title screen while clearing any progress they have made.)

Once at the canvas screen, a timer starts that measures how long it takes the user to draw the model image. The user employs a pointing device (mouse, drawing tablet etc.) to draw on the canvas, and is offered a number of drawing tools, including an eraser mode, a slider that changes the thickness of their strokes, an undo button, a redo button, and a button to clear their current progress. The user may click the "I'm done" button to advance to a screen that shows the content of their canvas alongside their chosen model, as well as the amount of time elapsed while on the canvas screen. Here, the user can click "Try again" to draw the model again or "Next" to advance to a screen where they can download their drawing.

Model images[edit]

Before the user is prompted to study their chosen image, there is an intermediary screen that shows a brief description of the character or item depicted. Although the image is mainly shown in black-and-white throughout the activity, on this screen, the user can switch to a colored variant of the image.

The following are the images that can be selected as models in this activity, each listed with its corresponding description.
