Description
...DOCTORIN' THE HEDGEHOGS!(or some cool name like that anyway)
This is inspired by ' "Hedgehogs in 30 Minutes" tutorial on Deviantart and youtube. Thank you so much for giving me fresh ideas! This was originally meant to be just like that, a few random expressions, but then I got sidetracked again. It's also based on the cover art of a Sonic comic which is on his main page which has Sonic up on a stage with loads of people cheering.
In this picture, Sonic, Tails (with his crazy scarf) and Knuckles with his OVA movie hat are about to do a rock song with the Doctor and Cyberleader Kroton. Sonic and his friends all do the vocals, while Kroton is on the guitar and the Sixth Doctor plays the drums. I cannot believe I just said that.
This just screams 1986 to me. The song they're about to do could almost be The Final Countdown by Europe, but I have a feeling it would be Heaven Can Wait by Gamma Ray or HIS WORLD
I love the fact I got just any old crinkly bit of paper, not thinking it'd turn into anything important...
Time taken: in excess of 11 hours. That's longer than anything I have ever done before.

lol I see espio, and I think Shadow (yes I'm the weird person who after looking at the main picture looks at the background for something slightly comical)

That'll probably be [link] taking fashionably early a bit too far.

Haha! That's so epically hair-metal-cheesy '80s it's AWESOME! Although, we all know...Six won't stay at the back of the stage playing the drums for _long_. Ten to one says he starts wrestling the microphone away from Sonic only partway through the first set. (laughs)

He and Knuckles probably take turns or something... Idk how it'd work but yeah, probably! And epic hair metal cheesy 80's is the idea. I've been listening to quite a bit of Europe lately.

Six's likeness has improved!
Love the Sonic pin rather than a cat, btw. And the Vervoid vest. Sonic's facial expression is also win XD I bet that Cyberman is feeling lucky to not get reprogrammed for this lol
Can't wait until they release an original CD

Thank you!
Kroton's no ordinary Cyberman. He's the same as ever since that old DWM comic, except he was recaptured and 'upgraded' by his own kind, only to be rescued by 11.

*looks at digital DWM shelf* Er...which issue might that be with his appearance? I think I remember it somewhere...

I don't know... it'd be aaaaiiincient... I could look it up. The comics with him in them are called Throwback: The Soul of a Cyberman, plus one other, plus an Eighth Doctor strip which had him in it as well (which would have been awesome!) The first two were made like back in the 70s.

I've got digital copies of 1-166 and a few more so I think I'm good there. If you can't guess from my signature, my favorite comic is Voyager lol

Where did you get stuff like that from? It'd be awesome to have digital copies of the 8th Doctor comics with Kroton in them. I'd probably feel guilty about not buying them somehow though.

Torrents mostly. I found one of DWMs 1-166 and a few besides on this site called Whoshare...unfortunately there's no 8th in there, much to my annoyance.

Love the shading and the background people, all gray and such. xD Is that lipstick on Knuckles' cheek?

Boy, that's a lot of detail! I can tell you put a lot of time into this.
I like the spunky, crazy outfit of the guy on the left. Boy, he'd blend into a crowd.
Try adding more contrast to your work. Heavier shadows, brighter highlights, etc. Everything here is very flat and pale, and considering how detailed it is, it comes off as busy rather than complicated.
Also, the hands, on every character, are far too small. Hands, with the fingers spread, should roughly cover your face, not including the forehead. A useful unit of measurement.

Thanks! Well the guy on the left is known as The Doctor (as played by Colin Baker in Doctor Who in the 80s. He's my favourite Doctor)
I'll try to keep that in mind. *thumbs up*

Looking very good (your six is getting better, and your sonic style is looking good too
)
that's a LONG time to spend on a project... I don't really remember how many hours it takes me to do something... but if I was working on a pick for ten hours, I think I'd go mad. (but for all I know, I might have spent 10 hours on each of the picks I'm doing now, and that's without the colour.

I wish I could spend so long on something. If I did my gallery would look so much better.

I don't... I wish I could spend less time on a picture... then my gallery would have more in it... I still can't believe that before I finished that other picture, I hadn't submitted a single thing since March... just because I spend to much time trying to make a picture, and end up leaving it because I'm unable to colour it...

Sounds like me last year. I didn't really bother coloring things in very often, I seem to remember. If you uploaded half-finished works to your scraps it'd still be better than nothing though, wouldn't it?

That is true... either way, I'm still going to try colouring them, if they're not done by thursday, I'll upload them all uncoloured then.

Okay. And when you get back you can finish and resubmit them.
