Description
Sonic in the Labyrinth Zone. Of the Sonic Fix series thus far, I think this one makes the best use of the screencap background, and really looks like a scene in the game due to the reduced pallate. I worked especially hard on the enemies in this one, but the smaller Jaws looks a bit silly. I enjoyed "stretching" the larger one into a more aggressive pose than he usually appears in.Related content

Why does Sonic drown when it gets FUN?!
Sonic's expression is EPIC, the shading is neat!

awesome pick. Open canvas is some program? That's cool that you don't use multiple layers. Really love the colors

Yeah, it's a paint program from Japan, obviously I like it, but I do mix it up with other programs (mainly PaintShop Pro for editing functions) I do use some layers though, but not for things like painting or shading--the lines will all be on one layer, and Sonic will be all on one layer, but that's going to be all of his colors, I don't have layers for each color or anything like that.

Wow, interesting thing, I actually know this image really well as someone's signature on the Sonic Retro forum. I never thought I'd locate it here - kind of nifty.
Oh, and of course, the drawing itself is epic. The only thing I could POSSIBLY complain about is the watermark in the corner. To say the least, it doesn't fit in

I probably put it there to keep people from using it as their signature?

Oh of course, you wouldn't want the content stolen, I just mean you could have (read: not necessarily obligated) made it "fit in" with it a bit better - be it a part of one of the blocks, a font and style fitting to the scene, or something similar.
As well, if I remember right, the person who was using it as a signature had cropped it out - that being why I thought he had made it himself, too, but the signature made no indication of who had created it. If I see him again, maybe I'll ask him about it.

It's fine really, at this point I'm happy that people are using the images for something. It's better if people recognize them as having been drawn by me, but I'm glad to have made something people really like.

That's funny, most people find that the hardest boss in the game, since it's so easy to get knocked all the way back down.
Not that that's ever happened to me or anything...

Give the water is annoying but when your that far in the game you'd think your timing with jumps would be better. giving marble and spring yard with all the life or death jumps

gsilverfish In reply to WaffleBerry [2008-11-16 02:47:47 +0000 UTC]
You'd think! But in my experience watching people play it's more a matter of people not looking where they leap, or considering the possibility that there might be spikes in the wall ahead.
That and there are almost no jumps prior to that where you might die if you miss it, Sonic doesn't really train you to be cautious (though it certainly pays off).

It looks like unleashed might play out not only the old school gameplay but might also mimic the "You are on your own, this game wont hold your hand" kind of aspect

Oh gawd, Labyrinth Zone. First time I played Sonic was on my Genesis (I didn't get the manual with the game) I figured Sonic could breathe underwater like Mario could. And then the countdown music of imminent DEATH started playing and I started panicking, wondering what the crap I had to do and---he drowned. ;-;
But anyway, awesome job making a 2D level into 3D. Very cool! X3

I like all your old-school Sonic pics, but this one is probably my favorite.
Labyrinth Zone is a zone nobody bothers to draw, and you captured the look of the level perfectly.

But that zone was a pain in the neck! Took me 3 tries to finally get through...although it's interesting to see Sonic in a place where he fears the most.

Some fans create fan art of classic Sonic zones such as Green Hill or Marble Zone, and a rare few of them look truly amazing.
The difference between this piece and those is that this image makes me feel like I'm in Labyrinth Zone. It has a much greater Sonic feel than most other Sonic fan art pieces.
This is nothing short of excellent. It's definitely one of my favorite Sonic pieces. Great job!
