Description Remember how back in the early 90's a lot of sonic themes revolved around self esteem and positivity? [link] Well that inspired this picture. If nothing else, believe in yourself, always.

(2/3/11) just touched up the boarder and added my sig.

Words to live by! I loved when the turtloid starts flailing his arms and legs when Sonic stands on him in Sonic 4 ep 2

A good way to see things, after all who'd have beleved that the good guys would have won WW2, the American Revalion and other such 'good wars' (abet with a little luck and the help of the Yanks)

That's my way of seeing things anyway, and who can say it can't be true...

That's a nice one, and I never noticed that before.

I loved the Sky Chase Zone & Turtleoids from Sonic 2.

This is awesome A great concept which you've drawn really well. You've really captured the classic Sonic design nicely here. I like how you've shaded this too.

Nate-D In reply to JenHedgehog [2011-02-03 21:20:47 +0000 UTC]

Thanks! Yeah removing the outline and shading it was easily the toughest part. but it paid off in the end.

Nate-D In reply to Generune [2011-02-03 08:32:25 +0000 UTC]

I have both fond and tragic memories of sky chase zone. Possibly the most cinematic level in the game.

Nate-D In reply to sonicchillydogs [2011-02-03 08:34:07 +0000 UTC]

Thanks. I tried to make it look as much like SONIC 2 as I could, taking a look at the originally Japanese art from the game, as well as playing through sky chase zone. I'm happy with how it turned out.

....I felt rather fail when the very first time I lost my life in Sonic 2 (where I needed to use a continue) was in Skye Chase...... X.X

We've all been there. Sky chase can be a cruel, cruel zone.

Definitely captured the Sonic the Hedgehog attitude with this one. "Let nothing stand in your way...without finding some way to have fun with it."
