why are you so goddamn fuckin awesome at drawing oldschool sonic


i wanna take a page or two outta your book for that coloring style... what do you call it? it always turns out well for pictures like these

I think layout and color selection are more important for capturing that certain Sonicky quality than the exact technique, but I guess it's a bit "painty?" I dunno what to call it! It's similar to what I do with paint (which I rarely use) but the technique applies to CG as well. I use a brush with a certain amount of opacity to it (and a tablet helps to control that opacity) to put down some colors, and then using smaller strokes I continually pick up (with a hot-keyed eyedropper tool) and put down those colors and gradually blend them together. Think of it as putting paint down and then pushing it around. So basically I start by picking two or three colors and then by working the area I end up with a sculpted 3D feel.

very nice!! old school sonic just the way I like him.
