Description My part of an art trade with the amazingly talented .

Well, this is my take on a humanized version of Shadow, the hedgehog. XDDD;;;
I kept shoving various sketches and WIPs of this to people's faces on MSN Messenger (including a couple of my dear DA friends - sorry guys, lol) in the past two weeks and they said this version was the hottest and coolest. 8D

I tried to draw him in a bunch of more interesting poses, but I fail at drawing dynamic poses... Sorry. Anyways, I gave him a random gun for some reason. And the boots turned out kinda 3D-ish.
I wanted to do some background-like thing at first, but then I felt like trying out how it looks like if I save it as a png file with transparent background. Hope you don't mind. (Translation: I are lazeh. ^_^;;; )

Gah, sorry it took me so long. It could have been better and he has anatomy issues and stuff. Still, I worked pretty hard on it.

The small view version was bothering me, so I changed the file to jpg.

I thought it was an odd request back then, but it was fun to do nonetheless.

Amarevia In reply to GiggleDigit [2011-06-20 11:37:53 +0000 UTC]

Really? 8D That's awesome, because I'm not even familiar with Sonic stuff, haha. I was a bit worried that my drawing would turn out too different compared to the actual character, out of character or something. But I'm glad you like it.
Thanks for the !

All the others I've seen have had overly depressing emo hairstyles and clothing or were too fuffly and not edgey enough to really capture Shadow's persona... my brother was a HUGE Shadow fan back in the day so I've been up to my ears in 'Shadow-talk' before

That outfit is really badass, one of your best so far, IMO. The coloring looks great, and I love the wrinkles. Haven't played Sonic games much, but I can't resist faving this!

I love his clothes. The creases are awesome. The pose and anatomy are great - I don't know what anatomy issues you're talking about (did you take out his appendix? :3 ) Overall, awesome piccy.

Er... the hand(s) for example. And the legs are probably too long.
Anyway, thanks!

Everyone's got weird proportions. I know some people that resemble cartoon characters, and they're less well-proportioned than him.

Amarevia In reply to CheshireCat07 [2008-11-30 19:54:25 +0000 UTC]

Okay, I know there's no such thing as an "average person", but still, you have to obey some anatomy rules if you don't want your characters to look completely like some awkward mutations. XD;;

Wanna see awkward mutations? xD

About two minutes to two-thirty into this is awkward.

I worked pretty hard on the outfit. It was so much fun to draw, though. I was experimenting a lot with the colouring.

Well, if you like doing it, it should be fun.
Though it's a bit of a pressure if you have to draw for someone who is much better than you are.

But you can draw outfits for my OCs instead!
Her name was Panka.
Btw, you still haven't told me what your request would be.

mangalori In reply to Amarevia [2008-12-03 20:21:33 +0000 UTC]

hmmm.... that sounds awfully tempting... but... I MUST draw the cat. So I'll do both lol XD
Panka? What a cute name! Is that a Hungarian name?

muh? My request? What are you talking about? What was this conversation about in the first place?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Amarevia In reply to mangalori [2008-12-05 07:26:32 +0000 UTC]

Haha, awesome!
Yes. I guess it was originally a pet name for Anna or something, but it's used as an official first name (which is actually the last name in Hungary, lol) now.

Well, you started drawing my cat as your part of an art trade with me. Though you said you wouldn't want to tell me what you wanted me to draw for you until you're not done with yours. But that was months ago and I'm curious!

mangalori In reply to Amarevia [2008-12-05 15:54:08 +0000 UTC]

aaah I see... wait no... I'm confused with your name system now D: You have the same system as in Japan? Like your name is written "something silvie" instead of "silvie something" like here? cool.

Really now? XD That I didn't know lol.
Did I say that?! jeesh bad memory...
hmmm what do I want.... aha! I know! You can draw my kittykat! Kapsul... I'll post the photo soon ok

Amarevia In reply to mangalori [2008-12-06 10:02:57 +0000 UTC]

Yes, it's the same as in Japan.

Haha! I have a scary memory, I remember almost everything that people said or done to me.
Alright!

mangalori In reply to Amarevia [2008-12-06 18:55:25 +0000 UTC]

sweet XD
well here in Belgium it depends... They call it first name (Lori) and last name (Denis) but when writing it down they sometimes switch the order. Especially with paperwork. Like sometimes they write "Lori Denis" and sometimes "Denis Lori".

XD really? I suck at remembering stuff...
yaaaaaaay

Amarevia In reply to mangalori [2008-12-07 12:41:54 +0000 UTC]

Lol, that's interesting! In Hungary, you have to use your name everywhere like Japanese people do. It's weird when you first start to learn a foreign language like English or German and have to remember to say your names in a different order.

So do I when I HAVE TO remember something. XDD;; If I don't have to, I'll remember it.

mangalori In reply to Amarevia [2008-12-09 20:28:39 +0000 UTC]

aaah XD that's gotta suck. We are used to both... so it's not that hard switching. But it's also confusing XD since you can't always tell what the first is. Some people think my last name is my first name... I think they mistake it for Dennis (the boys name?).

hahaha I can't do neither XD
