Description Comments of a Thief:

I felt like doing some gift art for one of the most funniest Sonic fans you could ever meet. And that particular person would be the lovely *ZoDy .

Not only is he one of the funnies people with a unique drawing style, but he is also one of the nicest for it is absolutely fun to talk to him.

He's also one of the best voice actors I met, too. He makes a great Shadow the Hedgehog.

I also wanted to test out coloring without any lines and make it look like a painting. I think that the other one with Sonic was a little to shiny. xDD So I tried to improve a bit.

I find it amazing that it's so difficult to draw a realistic painting of a character and make him look very silly and cheerful. That was the most fun part of this wonderful challenge.

Thank you so much, Zody, for being a good friend of mine. You were great to talk to.

Tools Used:

Photoshop CS2 using the brush, dodge, burn, and smudge tool. I love the smudge tool. They're excellent for making wrinkles.

Time Consumed: 2 hours

Proud Of: Everything, really. Including the smexy signature.

Bummed Out Of: Nothing, actually. xDD

Additional Notes: The background was actually made from a mistake. xD

Eeek. I never comment on your work anymore, and it makes me feel horrible.

But seriously, whenever I look at recent pictures by you, you're getting better and better every time!! <3

I adore this, how soft it looks and everything. I don't usually like the use of dodge and burn to much, it usually makes the image look kinda.. immature I dunno. But you totally make it work, it looks amazing.

Awesome, and the background is really cute.

Me being the expert of tardiness, I am so sorry for commenting so late! It's ok, if you don't comment anymore. I don't mind, but I do get quite worried about you. I missed you so much. How's life?

Daww, shucks. You need to thank my boredom for my improved pictures.

Indeed the dodge and burn tool can make thinks look childish and amateur, but when you know how to use it wisely, it looks beautiful. Thank you so much for the wonderful comment! That totally means a lot to me.

Glad you like the background. It was actually made from a mistake. xDD Go figure.

Lovely coloring, and great job on his shades. And the pants just rock! X3
I love line-less pictures because it makes them pop out more. Things in the real world don't have lines, but they manage to pop out very well, ya know.

You know, now that you mention it, things do pop out more without lines..What a fascinating fact that was. Glad you like the pic, miss. The pants were a ton of fun doing.

I'm so glad that you liked it, my friend. I don't know if it looks that profressional, but thank you so much! The signature was the most fun to do, dude. It gives class to this silly picture. It's hard to draw something for other people, isn't it? I understand what you're going through. It stinks being stuck in that situation. xDD
