Description
In order to motivate myself to do more art on here and just for fun, I'm going to do a theme month.Welcome to March of the Mascots! Throughout the 90s and early 2000s, there were dozens of video game companies that tried to make a "totally rad dude with 'tude" type character to market to the impressionable youth of the time. Some are still known and loved today. Others are hated or long forgotten. Regardless, I'm here to pay them tribute. Every day this month I will be posting a drawing of a video game mascot of yesteryear.
I'm kicking things of with the character that started the whole craze, Sonic the Hedgehog. This guy needs no introduction. His fun gameplay, simple yet creative design, and to-cool-for-school attitude pretty much defined gaming in the 90s, for better or for worse.
Here's to hoping I actually keep to this project!

That expression... and the near-certainty that at least a few other characters had to eat that dust cloud... Brilliant! Thanks for this!
Good luck with your project! Wow. One a day?Β That's...a whole lot of mascots to chase down... Right now, I'm not even sure I can think of that many. So will be watching ya. Am curious to see how many I'll recognize.

Haha! I didn't think about the others would be "eating his dust" but I really like that idea now!
I did a far amount of research beforehand, so I have a good many prepared. I had to dig pretty deep for some.
Thanks for the watch! Hope you'll like what's coming.
