Sonic the Hedgehog by @Metara (Metara Fujima)
I totally forgot this place existed XD WOW old and horrible pics in my gallery.
Anyway, here is something that is NOT three years old. Concept art. Sonic at the age of nine, from my Sonic 1 novelization "Sonic the Hedgehog" :P Done quickly to test out style and a few other things. Actual size 1024/768. Sketched, drawn and painted in Photoshop 5.
Nice shading in this picture and I really like the subtle textures and colour variations you gave to the background. It really fills the picture out and makes it look complete. You depicted a scene very well here. Welcome back to Side 7.
