Description
More Sonic art. On a Saturday night. I just wanted to post something since it's been weeks since my last one.Behold, it's the dreaded Sonic fan character! I'm not going to give out his name since that would spoil the current story I'm working on, which is a sequel to "Knight Errand" called "Of Past Regrets And Future Fears". I can tell you a few facts about him though:
- He's ringtailed lemur on his father's side (check out that tail), while his mother's a blue-eyed black lemur.
- He's very stealthy (having mostly black fur helps with this).
- He comes from a kingdom in Mobius' central Africa equivalent (in my fics, I use Mazuri for that purpose).
It was a little hard making a lemur look handsome, since they're a little goofy-looking (IMHO) with their big staring eyes and all, but I also wanted to keep some of the lemur features. I think I'll stick with this design for him though. I also attempted to do a gijinka/humanized version of him. For those of you who already know who this guy is, keep mum about his identity for now please. I want it to be a surprise.

Aww, he came out great! Mum's the word on who he is, of course, but it's so nice to be able to put a design to him. I had an idea based on his description, but I'm a super visual person. You were really good at recreating a lemur without him looking so... awkward LOL.
Fortunately for real life lemurs, their awkward look makes them adorable. They seriously look like muppets to me sometimes: i.imgur.com/kF5tu6a.jpg
Anyway great job!

Thanks! It took me a while to get him to come out how I wanted him too! I want to draw him in a way where one could see why Bunnie and Sally (or other girls) might get all distracted and giggly around him. XD
Yeah, (most) real lemurs can pull off "goofy but adorable" pretty well. Haha, that lemur in that picture reminds me of the lemur puppet from that old Kratt brothers show Zooboomafoo (sp?). In fact, I think that is the same species that character was.

I think you definitely succeeded! (And that's tough with lemurs LOL.)
Now that you mention it, I think it is the same type of lemur. Now I can't unsee the similarity though.

If you want to keep them looking like lemurs and not dogs or something, that it is. XD
Yeah, looks like it: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zoboomaf…

I was wondering when you were gonna draw this bugged eyed guy~ ;3 (Don't worry I won't spoil anything either though I don't recall you giving him a name, but knowing my forgetful ass you did lol~)
And he is cuuute~! And one can be good looking and goofy so you did a fine job of drawing the little bugger. And without even telling in the artist comments what he is you were able to make him obvious of what he is (which is something sometimes the canon Sonic fandom sorta fails to do =w=; )

LOL, I think I may have mentioned his name once or twice, but my memory's pretty terrible too.
Aww thank you! Yeah, I'm pretty sure you know how I feel about designing animal characters at this point.

You probably did and I may have forgotten since we have such numerous lengthy wonderful conversations~
And you're quite welcome~ And I think both know how each other feel on that subject. =3

Oooh I know who he iiiis! But I'm not gonna spoil anything for those who don't know. But I will say that he looks so cute! He looks so adorable and mischievous. I really dig his lemur tail and feet; they look so spot on with what a lemur looks like. Nice work!

Much obliged. I'm glad you think he's a cutie.
Oh next to his hair, his feet were the hardest thing to do. In fact, originally he was going to have sandals as well before I realized that they probably wouldn't be very practical when you have feet like his.

Sandals? Hm, I can see why you axed them. It wouldn't be very practical, I agree. But he came out great design wise and he truly is a cutie. You're so welcome, buddy!

Awesome, he's so cute! Meh, I think King Julien from the Madagascar series is kind've handsome - albeit in a goofy kind of way.
Either way, I think you did a good job with him.
I've never watched Sonic, so even if I knew your OFC's identity, it would mean nothing to me.

Yeah... looking at Julian, he's sort of handsome by carton critters standards. I guess I never really associated him with that word because of his personality. :-P
But thank you, I'm glad you like my lemur guy! We'll be seeing more of him in the future.
