Because all the cool kids had one, too.

The Regis
A piccy I did of the Gizoid with the three Regis. I find them very similar and if I were to make a crossover of Sonic and Pokmon the Gizoid would definitely be related to them in one way or another! And it'd be named RegiGizoid! :]
I did the characters, my boyfriend did the background and the glowy cool effects. 🙂

To make the shadows I shaded first a lot with pencil, then colored with pencils and again with markers.
I'm especially proud of Regice, though I think screwed up with Registeel.

World Peace is possible!
Another collab with my boyfriend. Can you recognize all the people in the pic?
If you follow the link in the comment the names are written in the unfinished pic.

My sexiest pic yet
I love this char so much. xD

My first Espio drawing!
And I think it came out pretty decently.

Nice! Very nice indeed!

Do you think you could do one of Gamma destroying Omega with extreme prejudice, with scattered E-Series parts in the background?

Maybe with a caption saying, "Omega made a BIG mistake saying HE was the ultimate E-Series Robot..."

You little Gamma fanboy! xD
Which reminds me I've never ever drawn Gamma before, I should give it a try sometime.

New pic:
Sonic and Tails sprites (old version)

I'd like to know what you think of these. I'm not much into spriting and don't have much experience with it, either, but I gave it my best and think it looks quite nice.
Still, I'd like to know if there's anything I could've done better.
So please comment and tell me what you think. =)

The sprites are very very nice, especially if it's your first spriting job.

Since you asked for C&C, a few things:
-Sonic's spines look disconnected from his head. Simply erase the line at the back of the head for this.
-Sonic's left arm look like it's in sort of an akward position. If you like it that way, leave it as is as this isn't really a problem with the art.
-Tails' main body is absolutely perfect as is, but since you don't like the tails I think they should look like less of a flat disc. You'll have to ask someone with more sprite experience on how to achieve the effect you're going for.

All your other art is great and I can't really find anything to say about it other than good job =)

Thanks a lot for the critique Wonderbat. =)
I've messed around with the sprites some more and now they should look better:
Sonic and Tails v.2

Btw, this isn't the first time ever I sprite, but I've never really done anything from scratch like here and all I did was edit Advance/Sonic 3 sprites.

EDIT:
The Biggest Sonic Fan in the World
Kafka inspired me!:crazy

EDIT2:
New sprites:
Knuckles
Amy
Shadow
Rouge
Shadow again (Worth looking! xD)

Next in line are Cream+Cheese and Big+Froggy.
Aaaand I'm also coloring Shadow's Magical Quest in Pretty-Colorland 3. Since school is keeping me busy production is slow, but it seems sprites don't require as much dedication as coloring, so they're moving faster. :/

Some of your sprites are looking pretty good, Erika.

All of them have good proportions, though they look a little flat. Maybe a little more extra and/or darker shading on them will help with that. =D

And that last Shadow sprite is pretty cool. X3

I definately love your sprites...especially because you do them by hand. The colours on your sprites make them look unique...they aren't just the same old thing you normally see. Sweetness!:cookies

When I'm not feeling well emotionally, for example when I'm having a mood swing towards the angstyest part of the emotional spectrum, I not only feel more inspired to draw, but drawing also soothes me and helps me get my balance back.
My cat's death seriously messed me up, so I spent the entire Saturday morning and most of the afternoon drawing and drawing and drawing, which is why I'm feeling a lot better now. =)
I also managed to finish MQ3, which I'm posting here now! n_n

The hand is just backward. Put your hands at your head, you'll see the thumbs are toward the back of your head.

Unless you're some kind of freak. =P

Oh I see now. This is old art, so I guess that's why.

EDIT:
Amy Minicomic

Just a quick little thing inspired by Sonic next gen, contains some minor spoilers. =)

Something my great-grandma used to say...

Emo pig band Linkin Pork

Valentines update!(Somewhat belated)

A Valentine Comic
Based on real events..

The true reason behind Sonic Heroes!
This is totally worth checking! It's the one I'm the most proud of!

Shadow's Valentine
Didn't turn out half as good as I thought it would, but still it seems to be the one to get the most attention over at dA.:cuckoo

EDIT2:
Carnival in Bikini Bottom!
I like this picture a lot! For Spongebob and Sonic fans alike! :D

I make a new post!

Issue 4 of Shadow's Magical Quest
In case you missed the post in the SPA.

But here's the reason for the update:
My new minicomic Big Sister Rouge!

I plan to make it a collection of one-page comics, that are funny as stand-alones, but collectively make a little plot. Nothing really serious, just little funny things.

Page 2 and 3, which together with the first complete the introductory arc, are also out.
