Sonic 3 & Knuckles is definitely one of the greatest Sonic games ever! And I need to say, you did a hell of a good job making this picture. The way Sonic is colored reminded me of Sonic's 16 bit sprite for that game and how it was a darker shade of blue. And the scene you picked out was very well depicted. Well done TheWax.

Dash-Speed In reply to Frobman [2009-11-06 12:21:37 +0000 UTC]

It's not really tough if you pick the Flame Shield during the descent. Because the Flame Shield immunizes Sonic from lava and other fire traps.

I know that. Pretty tough to keep it if you're not with lightning reflexes, if you get my meaning (I mean, sure I'm a good game player, but not that great)

MrChidna [2009-11-06 10:46:56 +0000 UTC]

Very good, but I'm surprised this is your favourite scene in S3&K and not the classic cutting of the bridge between Angel Island and Hydrocity.

Hyper-Shan [2009-11-05 23:46:28 +0000 UTC]

That has to be the BEST artwork of Lava Reef Zone boss fight!

Definately one of the best scenes from S3&K where Sonic/& Tails fall & then the Death Egg re-awakens, incinerating the entire stage! Not like today with all the 3D cinematic cutscenes & all, Back on S3&K, the level-to-level transitions & all the short sprite cutscenes makes the game feel more epic than Sonic1/2/CD & all the current games (feels like an unfolding story after each zone & act)!

Right now, I'm trying to draw the scene where Knuckles just pushed the boulder on top of Sonic & Tails, & while falling, the Death Egg re-awakens! BUT, it's not doing so well only because I find it hard to draw scenes of having the picture looking upwards at a certain angle. I'll still have to practice on that though!
