: Hey there, Trouble... What did you draw for me this time? 
*that disturbing silence when he pats your head gently*

Give us the CHAO GARDENS BACK SEGA! 

It has been 8 years since my last   which I still hold a huge sentiment for. I was meant to remake it keeping exactly the same angle and the poses, but I decided to keep it for some other time. May wait another year or so and do it for its' 10th anniversary hahahaha.

has said so many good things about that old crappy drawing of mine, I had to make this for her. Such little things do brighten me a lot, especially, that I have been losing confidence in my art lately. She has also made tons of gifts for me, and draws stuff for me every single day. I get too much love from her, she deserves much much more. 
Who said Shadow needs to be always cool and edgy? Do you really think he would boss his little cute Trouble around like that? Na-ah. I think he would show him some of that soft side of his Hope you love it hun



That bloody background took me 2 days to make. I'm done with this picture, I can't look at it any longer. I do realise it may not look super professional, I am still a little bit rusty, as I don't use this style too often... but it's nice to learn drawing water and da rocks. I really hate them. I even vented, was it yesterday? on twitter about spending 5 hours on drawing just the lake. And in the end it all does not matter, because I BLURRED IT ALL OUT (ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━┻.
Well, the foreground matters more anyway, so never mind that haha.



Commissions are coming this weekend. I have one week left to finish them all up, so wish me good luck.. My university starts soon
I will make an alternate chao garden for my other friend, likely next week. Expect some Knuckles this time!

Thank you so much for all the watchers and all the feedback from you guys, I am shocked to see so many people interested in my stuff here! I really appreciate it. Feel free to poke me some time, I don't bite. Or rather, try not to haha.

Wow! Very beautiful and breathtaking drawing of Shadow sitting down with Shadow Chao and petting him! I love his blushing as he looks at Shadow!

And I love the background as well! It is so spooky and creepy!

Everything that you have done has an amazement of sweetness with the dreariness behind!

Stunning job, Fenri!

Same here! I'm replaying SA2B now
Thank you so much, glad you like it. I'm actually planning on making one with Knuckles soon as well. Maybe in Hero garden for a change?

AztecCCreations In reply to FenriRez [2018-09-21 17:44:28 +0000 UTC]

That be a nice idea id say go for it
Cause then you could draw some art of their chao's playing the mini games an have shadow an knuckles in the background like crazy soccer parents lol
But seriously i really would like to see how knuckles chao would look like
Mainly cause when i visited my chaos i always used knuckles (just cause sonic was to fast an tails was to slow)
So anyway keep up the good work an I'll stay tuned for knuckles

Oh no, this is really sweet! If only you could actually sit down to pet your Chao, that would be the cutest thing ever, haha.

I just want to say not only is this painting really well down but I like how you conveyed Shadow, having this sense of care for the Chao without it being out of character. Just really well done

I talked about your watchers or every people who see this pic. I'm tired of people finding me in the comments and watches me for no reason. Or even worse, just watches me expecting requests or to repost or reuse my pics. I had to hid some of my comments, because of them.

I'm fine. Just having a lot of headache with problems in my Android and computer.

DreamfulBlue [2018-09-15 15:36:45 +0000 UTC]

the sounds i made fen a priceless...i was just squicking and awww'ing the whole time staring at this!!

look at those two! look at dadow taking care of his adorable little son D:

I LIVE FOR SUCH PURE AND CUTE CONTENT!

I CAN'T, I FUCKING CAN'T...mmmmmmmmh! TTwTT


ok, let's start here...

you complaint that the picture might be too dark but...i think it fits here!

it's the DARK garden afterall, so having a gloomy atmosphere brings more appeal to it

EVERYTHING LOOKS LOVLEY, SUCH A NICE SCENE TO BE IN D:


and i wanna admit, i adore this style ALOT!, sure it's been a while since you made something in your cell shaded style and don't get me wrong, i love everything you do but...there is somthing about this smoothness i love! and it even looks much more better lineless!

YOU HAVE MY RESPECT FOR ROCKING THAT LINLESS STYLE, SINCE I KNOW MYSELF HOW HARD IT CAN BE D:

you did super well here love, but it's understandable that you've got sick of it after working on it for so long :<

but just you know, you made that little girl her jump around with a bouncing heart when she saw this wholesome drawing ;;v;;


AND CAN I JUST SAY HOW MUCH I WANNA CUDDLE THESE TWO RIGHT NOW?!

added cutness for giving that shadow chao a name, and it's so adorable that shadow would name him trouble... he would be a little troublemaker when he takes traites from his father

and that drawing he made! oooof my heart yet again melts ;;v;;

i always wanted that my chaos would draw sonic characters but they always drew just cakes xDD maybe they were hungry? but i always gave them enough fruits that they would end up throwing them away xD

back to the subject...

this little guy is such a talent! he did also a good job with the drawing ;> (you put even chalks there! nice touch)

troubles face...they way his tounge his peeking out a little...and those innnocent eyes looking up to shadow like "d-do you like it papa?" ...he seems like a mixture between a little kitten and a bunny


and then dadow over here, even sitting down with him and giving pets as a "thumbs up" for his amazing work :>

i'm 100% sure shadow loves his chao very much, even so much that he protects him from everything (when sonic is around he just gives him stares and says "don't you dare touching my child...you can't even look at him with your dirty eyes!" xD)

and his smile ;;v;;...my heart at that point is just a puddle right now...I DIE FEN! D:

and for some reasons...the way you drew his hands...it seems so gentel...like he really got soft and is like a caring mother ;;v;;

"that disturbing silence when he pats your head gently"...ffff! FEN XD but it's true xD it's just a simple "hmpf" from him and then he goes for the pets xD thats the way he shows love xD


and now to the background...HOW THE HELL DID YOU DO THAT?!

i'm mean you made it blurry so they pop more out but...IT LOOKS SO GOOD?!

HOW CAN YOU SAY IT RUINS THE PICTURE? D:

even the water seems almost realistic...the small light effects make it even glow abit...mysterious waters

and the stones are good themselfs...i always suck making them believabe enough...but you freaking nailed it!


you're drawing from 2010 isn't crappy! :< well compared to your newer works maybe but it still looks amazing and you've put there so much details!

it was this picture where i've got to know your drawings...and after a long time i've found you again and now we are very close


no no fen, you desevre way more than silly ol' blue bean xP

i love you alot so i need to show it to you somehow when i can't hug you xP


ma'am, i am amazed once again!

thank you so much for this super cute and beautieful drawing of yours

i gonna make it my banner on twitter and my wallpaper! (how often did i change it now? xD way too much put you always surpirse me with your drawings!)

really, the amount of love you gave me is crazy ;;v;;

and you even loved my crazy side yesterday ;;v;; many would have felt uncomfotable or weirded out with it...but you stayed

i love you fen! thank you for exsisting

Following our discord and twitter chat, I'm amused with the lenght of this comment-- I don't think I have ever received such a long comment on anything until now, and that makes me hyped and feel loved.

Dadow! XD that pun you made there, so accurate!

I tonned it down a lot.. but it still looks dark due to the fact that they are both black! I even made the ground brighter behind them give it some ort of balance, which again, is hard to do when everything is this garden is... FREAKING DARK.

Here's the WIP for you hun 
As you can see it was much darker than before. I'm still bitter about it, because I choose to have their shadows cast onto the viewer, to make the space behind them brighter.. if that makes sense? Since the whole scenery is rather dark, there must be an element dividing the rocky area from the characters.. doubt that anyone has even noticed that just yet.

You think the lineless art looks better from me? C: I always wonder which style I should use more haha. I like both!

I'm glad I mde you jump haha
I'm not super confident in this style, but it reall makes me happy to see that some people appreciate the effort put into it still.

I mean.. that was the first name that came to my head when I sketched them out haha! The Shadow Chao is just a tiny replica of Shadow xD it must be a walking trouble. It learns from his pappa how to be edgy after all. But prbably fails at it a lot because of its' cuteness hahaha. Hahaha! Oh my gosh! The drawing was actually made off of the original one from he SA2 game! I looked it up in game to see how it was done and tried to copy it a bit. It's not exactly the same, but still, looks similar. As much as I try to keep to the original shapes and colours of this garden from the game, there had to be some scrifices made for te sake of the characters pop out more. Unfortunately. Thus, why the background had to be blurry, oterwise I ot the characters lost in it, as you can notice on the WIPs.

Hahaha oh dear lord, those comments!! I'm sure, Shadow loves his chao a lot. Don't see why I would have to draw him making a serious face here. Chao is like a pet, like you said. Wants to feel loved a little. I can imagine Shadow walking into the garden seeing his chao drawing something on the ground. If I was him, I would just walk up close to it, sit down and gently stroke its' quills asking 'how are things going'. I bet hat sort of affection wouldn't last long. And Chao would indeed get caught by a surprise, since in game Shadow never sits around with anyone.. it makes him look more.. hrm... normal that way?

Haha, it's silly to see how one drawing can bring people close together, no? Will be forever thankful for that day.

Love you too and you're very welcome as usual!

it was unusual for me to write such a loooong comment but it had to be said everything!
and fen you are loved!

dadow the ultimate dad form :> put the pun is not from me so I don't take credit xDDD

hmm, actually a good thought to make the ground lighter then the characters, but still I find it enough :>
even seeing your first version if it, it was ok...the newer one is better but the older was also ok (for me atleast)
also interesting to see how you began with coloring! maybe I should try it too sometimes :0

the idea with the shadows is also good, gives also someone more the atmosphere that you are near them in there company
and the light really acts here like a separated line for the front and back :>

more and more after looking at it I really dig you lineless art, if you don't mind then why not practice more with it? ;>
I could see you making super cool illustrations with this !

I really did jump xD I had to watch to not hit my table xD
I got so excited for it since I never saw much cute art from you, and this really made me so hyped ;;v;;
well, you probably feel unconfident about it since you don't do it often? :0
I was like this too when I made my first lineless illustration, you grow on it late on :>

Trouble is really such a nice name for that little guy! sounds also cute :>
would be kinda funny when shadow calls him and he got angry with him...then the chao knows he is in trouble (oooh that pun hurts)

I can see that trouble trys to copycat his dad xD
acting dramatic, having a cool guy persona, amd also making trouble everywhere xD

well sometimes you have to change things for the sake of the picture :0 I don't find it bad if you made some changes

just the thought of shadow growing soft around his chao, taking care of him, and even playing with him and cuddling him...it just warm my heart...I love seeing such characters showing that they also have a soft side that they not just show to everyone...there is something so cute about it

it really is funny that this drawing brought us together actually xD

thank you love
