Sonic invites you to a personal demonstration of why running is good for you...
Howdy folks! RipRoarRex here, pulling his finger out of his proverbial to draw some new pictures in time for Christmas!
For some reason during November, I had a sudden temptation to draw some pictures involving Sonic the Hedgehog. In this first one, I thought I would play on the popular theme of Sonic's sneakers possessing their own delightful qualities given his penchant for running around at unfathomable speeds - something no doubt plenty have thought about before, even if they wouldn't admit it.
It might surprise folks to know that this is by no means the first time I have drawn Sonic - back when I was around 10-11, I used to draw quite lengthy comic book stories involving him, the longest being 34 pages. (And yes, I do still have them!) Those comics were the first serious attempt at cartooning that I had ever made. Truthfully, Sonic was actually the first 'furry' character of any type that I learned to draw all those years ago; I first taught myself the reference guides featured on 'Sonic Jam' for the Sega Saturn (if anyone remembers that!) which were based on the original Japanese cartoon style.
Given that these comics were my cartooning roots of sorts, suffice to say therefore that the style I developed back then still has a very strong influence on the style I have today. Believe it or not, Rexar's distinctive brow is based on how I started drawing Sonic, whilst the way I start by drawing his eyes is directly influenced by how I learned to draw Knuckles in the same way. The likes of Rocky and Mike are also partly inspired by the methods I used to draw Tails.
Didn't know that, did ya? Anyway - back to this picture.
Despite having drawn Sonic regularly many years ago, this was the first time I had attempted a picture of him in about 10 years. Funnily enough though. I think my overall development since then has meant that this has come out looking better than anything I did back then when I was practising regularly!
For whatever reason, I decided to colour this one in the same style as the official cartoon artwork of the character, which is rather different from how I would normally colour something - the shading is quite stylistic, with the darker tones appearing in fairly inconsistent positions around the edges of the character (Example). Quite a cool cartoon style, and not one I've dabbled with before, so I hope I got it vaguely right.
(Oh, and I couldn't resist the corny Green Hill reference for the background. Heh!)
Hope you like it anyway, folks, and feedback always appreciated.
(By the way, my second Sonic picture is available here.)

Omigawd fantasy come true! Been waiting for a piece like this for ages! <3 I'd love to see some sweaty bare sole as well. The style is amaing as always and I love his expression in the picture, it screams "i know its repulsive but you love it" it even looks as if he's sampling it for himself the way hes holding his shoe. Thank you Rex... Greatest... Christmas... Gift... ever!!!
P.S. Glad to se new uploads, wonderin when you were gonna post again the next pic you do like this should be tails and knuckles worshipping his hot feet.

He is sampling it - and I think he approves. Heh!
I'm not sure about a barefoot Sonic picture, because I've never been too keen on the idea, to be honest. I'm also not a fan of Tails, though Knuckles is a different story. We'll see what the future holds.
Thanks!

Whoa I never thought I'd see Sonic art out of you, Rexar. This is awesome! X3 I just love fantasizing about what Sonic's feet must be like inside those shoes all the time, especially since he runs around in them. I also like to imagine how big they are considering how big the shoes are. It's really nice to see you bring those fantasies to reality in this art. X3 Very nice work, dude! :) Hopefully we'll see him barefoot in your art sometime. :P
You should seriously consider doing Sonic again sometime. I speak for all of us when I say we have all secretly wanted to see Sonic's feet.
Sadly all you see are Amy's feet. Never any Sonic or Shadow. So we thank you for this. Best Christmas gift eva!
(Ever think of a shoeless stomp with Sonic...or shadow?)
Just a thought.
We all love you Rex!!
