Happy 23rd Anniversary Sonic!

Description

Hmm...I could rattle on and said how much of an impact the Sonic series had on me, but eh. Basically I was a nerd who studied too hard before discovering Sonic and only played obscure indie PC games. I did draw often, but for fun and never took my art seriously. Sonic changed all of that and hurled me into the depths of the internet where I met like-minded people, both good and bad. He exposed me to the world wide web. He also made me get so carried away with drawing that my grades plunged ^^; but anyway, if not for him introducing me to the world of art and gaming, I would not have made up my mind to pursue an art-related career.

Even though he wasn't a part of my childhood (I discovered him when I was 14 years old, teenage), I still love him as much as any fan would :meow: In fact, without him being a part of my childhood, I have better judgement when it comes to reviewing his games without being blinded by nostalgia.

This year marks my 3rd year (since 2011) as a Sonic fan, and my 2nd year (since 2012) taking drawing seriously and as a career, too.

Anyway, enjoy. :)

This is such an incredible drawing of Sonic! His pose and expression are pure inspirational! :iconcoolnodplz:

The outlines, the colouring, the shadings and highlights, and the background are all so magnificent! :thumbsup:
I already can't wait for Sonic's 24th birthday coming up! :iconsoniclaplz:
