Description
First of all:*CALLING THIS CHARACTER "EGGMAN" IS INCORRECT. ALL AMERICAN VERSIONS ARE CALLED DR. ROBOTNIK. ONLY THE JAPANESE VERSION IS TO BE CALLED EGGMAN.
Also, to differenciate, AoSTH "Pingas" Robotnik can be called IVO because he states it as his name in one episode and SatAM-Robotnik as Julian Robotnik because it's his true name also stated in an episode and reinforced by the comics.*
Cartoon-Robotnik VS MaRa-Robotnik.
This is a freebie for (he didn't ask, I just felt like it and my muse agreed, lucky him) who's a new Robotnik fan wanting to learn more about him and how to draw him so here's a comparison in the differences when I draw him in cartoon style (right) to a more realistic style(left). It says RL-ish because you can't make him 100% realistic without making him look very different. His design doesn't permit it.
This is a "quickie" for me because I didn't pay much attention to detail. There's mistakes too and I know so don't point them out if you see them.
See, in the cartoon style he's very easy to pose and add certain expressions. In general, cartoon Julian has the anatomy of a Silverback Gorilla. Short legs, long arms, wide shoulders, big gut and egg shaped head.
Just see for yourselves. XD

Gorilla: [link] POSING!: [link]
(I just found it)When drawn realistically you have to worry about anatomy.
Now, the things I add as personal touches are muscle to the flesh arm and legs (guy weights about 400 lbs, he MUST have muscle in those legs to hold that weight), longer legs, looks less fat because his torso shrinks, facial bone structure changes, longer cape for aesthetic reasons. Longer mustache(cuz I lieks it), larger boots(visual balance).
The twist or grimace of his mouth is also a personal touch due to the bone structure I give his face, is not just there because of a whim.
~LucrataNexarii has a similar shape to his mouth because, like me, she draws him with a realistic bone structure to his face.
So there, welcome to the fandom and have fun working out your own way of drawing him.

Of course, his robotic arm will help him! It's a shame there is no such scene in SatAM where he uses his metallic arm for something special.

Or the rest of his arsenal. He flies using boosters on his boots and shots a freaking laser from his finger. Also his eyes glow like red flashlights and I'm sure they can do more. Really, there so much that could have been explored from his robotic parts and of course his brute strength like this: [link]
So that's where we fans come in.

I've been wanting to draw him for a long time now, just not something this simple, but at least it was something. So I'm glad to see art from me too. XP
