Description
The last time I did some proper Sonic fan art was like.....years ago now. I still DRAW him, but haven't really drawn, coloured and cleaned up one.Now I have.
This drawing could be a lot better: background and colouring still aches me, but I can't seem to figure how to improve it. Next one: no ground shot.
I'm a Sonic fan from way back since the Mega Drive years (even got the first Archie Sonic comic, NERD ALERT!) My Sonic fandom has taken a beating over the recent splash of games. And while I can respect that other people like these games, a lot of them just left me going "....buh-wha?"
Sonic the Hedgehog 2006 was just....augh. Finished his levels, haven't touched it since.
But at the heart of it, even if I no longer buy every game just because it has Sonic on the title, I still admire him. He was the one who inspired me to draw.
It all started with Sonic, the fastest thing alive.
On another note, I am playing Sonic Unleashed. Why? It has Super Sonic in the opening sequence.
F*** yes.

I loves me some blue hedgehog. Although I haven't bought a game in a long while. I think Sonic Heros was the last one. He'll be one of my favorite characters for years to come, I doubt that will change for a long long while.

Here's to the fastest thing alive.

I can't say I've been a fan since his early days- 
So far the DS games are worth it more than the console ones- but anyway back to your pic~
You have lot of good elements goin' on with the blurred bg n such- and the shading on Sonic is done
well (even the lil' bit on the teethz :B )
The bit that looks funny to me are the way you did the spines- 
Other than that it's cool~

If you like Sonic, that's all that matters
It's funny, but I could never really distinguish how many spines he truly had. I've seen him in cartoons, games, movies, and each time it was different. So each time I've drawn him, I just guess.
Recent games allow me to see him from the back, but meh. Perhaps I should've positioned him better to distinguish his body from his spines.
I was originally gonna do a standing pose, but I got carried away
Thanks for commenting though

Holy crap man, one of the best. I love how crisp Sonic looks compared to the blurred background.
Brilliant.

Great job
Blurring the background was a nice touch
Is that a missile behind him?

Indeed, that is a missile flying past. Compliments of Dr Ivo Robotnic.

Oh that's really great. The coloring and BG are nice.

Hm, well at least you're somebody who doesn't like the new games, but doesn't bash other people for liking them. =3
As for the actual drawing... well... it looks really good for the most part. The only thing that irks me about it is how that one spine on Sonic's right side seems to "connect" with his tail under his arm. It's all perspective, but, yeah. xD;
Others than that, freaking awesome, if ye ask me.
... but where's the rocket aimed at?
Eggman: "You."
... D'=

Thank you
I believe you're referring to his left leg under his arm. I didn't draw his tail (which would be a lot smaller).
Regardless, I can see what you mean. It looks like his fourth spine down goes past his arm. Suppose I should've positioned his arm better so to help distinguish his leg and his spine.
But thank you nonetheless

Yeah, that's what I meant. I was still sorta groggy from not having enough sleep (out of excitement over my birthday, which was yesterday), so I didn't see it right. xD; Nontheless, it's still very good Sonic-art. =3
