This comes from Ken Penders:

"Check out this piece which will be appearing as the Frontispiece for SONIC #145. It was colored by a fan now turned pro named Amber Greenlee, who's up to this point worked on her own stories for various online comics websites. Amber has colored several pieces for me prior to this, and I suspect you'll be seeing more of her work in the months ahead."
