Artist's Comments

I'm sorry, people, but if your characters are Sonic characters, they're not original. :P Kudos if you break away from the Sonic look and become independant without any connection to the Sonic mold, and if you tried, kudos for the effort, but otherwise, it's been overdone SO many times.

Don't get me wrong, though, I've seen some that are really cool, but sometimes there's just that one person who can actually pull it off and not be run-of-the-mill.

The only real thing you get from getting great at drawing Sonic characters is learning how to make detailed hands.

Anyway, not to bash, but that's my view on it. Really sorry if you don't agree.

This will be moved to Scraps soon.

I need to work on my projects. :|

Also, I made this with a tablet. Yay tablet! Hence the difference from the norm.

Do not keep this form, no.
I really dislike the Sonic fanart and everything about it. Mutilated Sonic himself and then went all the damn fangirls berserk... geez.

It was a joke form. XD I'm not keeping it.
I dislike Sonic fanart if it's mediocre or not original... but then, what Sonic fanart isn't?

Heheh, of course I won't. ^^ And yes, he's grown a lot less believable...

Believe it or not, I agree with you here.

To be honest, I've tried to make my own fancharacters more original. I didn't make them to be "lol Sonic" in the first place, I was just better at messing around with sprites than I was at drawing, so I used Sonic sprites because they were so common and easy to mess with.

The problem is, two of them are just - no matter what I try to do, they still look painfully Sonic-like, but I love them too much to abandon them somehow, and making a total makeover would create a new character instead of the desired result. As it is, I'll keep trying to improve on them and maybe, someday, manage to break them out of that horrible title "Sonic fancharacter".

... Damn, I wrote too much. Either way, I have a lot of OCs too and so on, but sometimes people just have that one fancharacter that's impossible to fit into another mold. *Shrug* ... Wait, maybe if I try Sonic-izing some of my other characters, it'll help me figure out how to un-Sonic-ize those two! Awesome, you gave me a new idea - thank you! :D

TL;DR: I agree with you, I have two fancharas I can't manage to un-Sonicize, you gave me an idea. :D Good job!
:iconkit128:
*blink* well, here I thought I'd be flamed... XD

Anyway, thanks for giving me your thoughts on this. On a rough skim of your gallery (I saw you on my page visits list) I saw you had a few characters that had a Sonic character look, and I was hoping you weren't coming to flame or convince me otherwise, so this is a surprise.

Heh, well, you're welcome for the idea. Also, I think I should add a note to my AC: "If you just can't break away from it, Kudos for trying."

Thanks for your thoughts! ^^

Agh! I never really liked Sonic based characters or the Sonic series in general. I've always been a Nintendo kid.

I have a habit of looking at the "new pics" page, and if I see something I may be able to help out on or something I just plain like, I click it. I'm not the kind of person who flames others, just a bit curious... ^^;

Since those two have the spines and everything, you may be able to see how it's difficult to alter them into another style. But, to be honest, drawing in Sonic-style helped me adapt to "proper" anatomy later on. Kinda. So drawing little Sonic people's better than drawing stickmen, I guess. >_>

No problem!
