Detail I'm still very proud of in this piece is that Tiny Kong could get a Royal flush if a king & ace are revealed. Meanwhile Chunky Kong could get a Straight flush, which is a worse hand but he only needs an 8 to be revealed. Also the banana in the ashtray

🥥 Kongs Playing Poker 🍌 #DonkeyKong #DonkeyKongBananza #art #illustration

An illustration of the Donkey Kong 64 characters Donkey Kong, Diddy Kong, Lanky Kong, Chunky Kong, and Tiny Kong playing poker around a round live-edge table. Candy Kong is standing behind Donkey Kong with her hand on his shoulder. They are in a dimly-lit room with wooden log walls and hardwood floors. On the table there are cups made out of coconut shells on the table, an ashtray with a partially-eaten banana in it, and a pile of poker chips in the middle, suggesting they are in the middle of an intense game. Tiny Kong is holding the Jack and Queen of Diamonds, while Chunky Kong holds the 6 and 7 of diamonds, everyone else has their cards turned away from view. Two cards are flipped over on the table, the 9 of diamonds and the 10 of diamonds.
