Artist's Comments

It’s Sonic and Tails at Emerald Hill Zone! I just noticed the glaring absence of Sonic deviations in my gallery, so I went right to work on this. Didn’t take me as long as I thought, probably a couple of hours since I sketched it ‘til I finished Photoshopping it. And guess what? I actually LIKE how it turned out! I used the bright, bold colors as a throwback to the Sega Genesis classics… The clouds are also a bit of nostalgia… I’ve always done clouds like this ever since I saw ‘em in the Sky Chase Zone way back in Sonic 2… Anyway, enjoy!

Wow, this is great! Love the vibrant coloring and cell shading, and their poses and facial expressions. Classic Sonic at it's best!

However...you're doing better than me and that's something I cannot forgive. So I'll just have to draw better ^ ^

The effect of speed comes across very nicely. I like the retreat to the olden days, Sonic 2 was my fave.

Not sure about his winking eye O_o and the lines are a bit scruffy here and there, but what can you do.

I really like the grass and clouds, though.

...a pathetic, adolescent fantasy which doesn't take into account the immense amount of responsibility and effort required to rule over an empire larger than any other.

Yeah, the Spaz Sonic wink... I'm not too fond of it either, but I know you like his art alot n_n I really like Sonic's pose, the action is portrayed quite well. I also love how you did the clouds! They look great ^_^ It's hard to tell what Tails is doing, though...

Those clouds rock! Love I love them! The lineart looks a little shakey, I recomend going over them again, other than that I have nothing else to suggest :) (Smile) Wonderful action btw :D (Big Grin)
