Description Edit: THIS IS WRONG. His quills are wrong. I know darned well that they're wrong. I screwed up. This is from 2005. Give me a break, guys.

Edit: The 3-page “How to Draw Sonic” tutorial is one of my most popular deviations, despite being a quick thing I did for a school project back in 2005. It’s not entirely accurate, especially the quills on page 3. I don’t plan to extend it or update it. If it helps you, that’s awesome. If not, try these:

Not all people can draw sonic characters and it's for who like the sonic games.

Ain't Sonic's quills like 2 from different rows, like 2 from left, 2 from middle, and two from right?

oh noes, too many quills! I've been drawing sonic for 6 years now and I just recently found out that he only has 6 head spikes
But either way, this is a good tutorial, nice work!

I love the expressions !!

CaribbeanPulse In reply to MrZepto [2011-06-15 02:03:03 +0000 UTC]

Thank you. The "wrong number of quills" thing has haunted this tutorial for years, but if anyone wants to draw a REALLY on-model interpretation of Sonic, there's other resources and references out there.

I still like the expressions, too. Expressive cartoon characters are pretty important to me.

have you thought of making an extension of this for sonic at a very front view, as if you couldn't see the middle quill?

Your way of drawing Sonic's eyes makes far more sense than how I draw him. I'll have to give it a whirl.

I like drawing sonic art, but the face proportions would always screw up. This is really helpful.

Thanks dude.

You're right. Thanks for catching the error. I drew him with nine spikes on the back of his head. Apparently he's supposed to only have seven. I didn't realize that there is only one "top" spike.

LjRico In reply to CaribbeanPulse [2008-06-01 01:27:04 +0000 UTC]

lol is just minor error. nobody really knows how many quils he has untill looking at a 3d model. He has six on his head (one on to two on each side and one on the very back) and two on his back
