Description I guess I can't hide it anymore.

This... is a contest entry.
I ended up turning it into a big project. There's two parts.
I really went overboard with this one... I really wanted to make this look good.

This is.. a picture of 's character Karl and my character Minit in SR style.

I hope likes the design I did for Karl. I redesigned the sunglasses and

armbands a bit and the shoes. I borrowed his signature too. I hope he doesn't mind.

Those of you who have played Sonic Riders will no doubt recognize some things I put into

this picture.

I'm really happy with the way the effects came out. The background could've been better.

:/

I've played Sonic Riders a little bit so I have a general idea of what it's like. I'm not

good at racing games though

I thought it would be cool if there was a mock simulation of the game with other

characters instead of Sonic and his friends, enemies... etc.

Extra Details:

1. I had some help with translating Karl and Minit's names from a friend.
2. TIME: The day that Sonic Riders was released in Japan.
3. RECORD: The day that I completed this part of the project.
4. The characters participating in the race are Karl, Minit and Kella. Kella doesn't have

green skin but I figured green would stand out more than the grey.
5. Playing around with text is actually pretty fun.

NO official pictures were put into this picture, no rip offs, everything was done from

scratch. I did look at the official pics as a reference though. The backgrounds are more

of a mix of the screenshots put together.

In addition, I made this into a nice wallpaper.

Duration: About a week.. -_-;
Done with Flash and Photoshop

Look here for the original sketches.

I take it from the fact they are both grinding that they are both Speed types yes?

Me, set the standard? I think I was being too ambitious.
I was thinking of putting a truck in there, but I decided not to. :/
