Description
Aside from the various commissions and requests I have been busy with, I have recently decided to put together a portfolio of my sonic based artwork to possibly submit to Archie along with my resume.Granted I am unsure if my style would suit the comics but Ive always been a fan of Sonic Satam and the Archie comics so I figure what's the harm in trying right?
I have been trying to develop my style as well as refine some of my techniques such as trying to adjust my line width on my drawings. I know I have a long way to go before I reach a professional level but anything worth doing is never easy right?
Basically with this character study I've tried to correct some of the mistakes I've made design wise in the past (example: some of the older drawings I've done of Sally don't have the correct colors or are missing details near the facial area near the brows or eyelids)
hope you enjoy and I will be doing more character studies in the future.

This picture might be rather dated now, but it is an excellent character study for the bundle of fur we call Sally Acorn.

Her boyd proportions look a bit more cartoonier then you usually do, (and I kinda prefer her tummy frontal fur pattern looking more "swimsuit"-like at the bottom, but that may be just the SatAM-nostalgia talking) but she looks nice regardless.
I really like kneeling pose, and the side facial expressions especially. Great shine effects for her hair, as well.

thanks
I was intentionally going for a more cartoonish look similar to the comics
the kneeling pose was a little tricky but I'm glad you like how it came out ^^

Good luck with your application. You never know what life can throw at you.
I like the far right pose of Sally kneeling. Her expression looks more natural.
Good work as always!

Really nice on one of my favorite Sonic characters. Sure love to see your take on Lupe someday. She is also one of my faves.

Excellent work as usual, Zee. I'm really liking the action poses. Now, her chest seems to be a little... I don't know, large, but as that's the way you usually draw her I'm guessing that's just your preference. Good work.

Hey, go for it! It could be fun to even just try. I'm sure they could use a great artist like you.

Sally is not a robot now, or is she? Good work!

Decided to practice drawing her in a non robotized form
thanks BTW ^^

I'm always down for study pieces. You do an excellent job of showcasing the gamut of her emotions and expressions. I especially like the bottom right example.

My advice is stay away from archie, the SatAM characters are just laughed off there and Ian Potto is a hypocrite as he used to write satAM based fics but considers it stupid.
Just stay independent, really its not worth it and if you want money for art go the donations route.

IF YOU THINK YOU CAN MAKE IT AS AN ARTIST FOR ARCHIE BLOODY GO FOR IT!

I'd almost forgotten what she looked like as a squishy meatbag.
