You want Sonic characters with more human proportions? I got your number right here.

It's Sunday. Confess.

Maybe we could see some of the more obscure/forgotten Sonic characters for a change? It probably won't happen, but I can dream.

It is Sonic Reborn!

God. How come all western licensed collectibles need to be the ugliest shit.

I Actually like the Eggbosses
ESPECIALLY Kukku, Clove, and Thunderbolt.
TB the most

jesus

Oh look. Cream is there. They didn't forget about her.

I assumed these were kids' toys rather than collectibles.

quick come up with the most predictable tracks possible for Sonic Kart

>Reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

I'm sexually attracted to mobian gir- Female Sonic's Worldians.

I l-love you too mysterious avatar bunni

I can't wait to race around Green Hill Zone!

I fapped to Sonic porn once. Only once. When I was done I said "never again." I'm still sorry that I did.

I dig Sonic Forces soundtrack.

Nothing to be ashamed of, tbqh. May they RIP in pieces.

Source? I know there was Diamond Select merch announced but I didn't think we would see photos yet

Same company as the one above is also making these.

I posted myself dancing to Big Arm on here.

I've created more than 30 Sonic OC's

I hate Sonic lewds and furry/cartoon/not realistic human porn in general but I'm starting to come around with Sonadow and it fucking hurts my soul

...

Kukku is top tier

Now THOSE I'd buy!

I fapped to fucking bump and it was the best orgasm I had all month. I regret nothing

What the fuck, SEGA GIMMIE

I've been flinging shit at sonic games I've never played. Forgive me

>Modern Sonic in Green Hill Zone
sigh
>Modern Tails in Green Hill Zone
sigh
>Two figures meant to be paired together but both have the same colored emerald
WHY

im better than any other sonic fan that ever lived

wew feels good to get that off my chest

Eggman one looks cool

Same

why is sonic taller than eggman
why is cream the same height as fucking eggman

Name some artists that draw female hedgies with tits like pic related.

>Kukku is a game character so he'll probably come back in IDW
Feels good man.

steppu

cute

Does Ben Bates have a deviantart page?

IIRC he used to but he went scorched earth on his public online presence for various reasons

the more times I read through the post-SGW books, the less I like them.

>he went scorched earth on his public online presence for various reasons
Nani?!

I've never played Sonic Colors.

Can't you just emulate it?

Same.
Eventually it's going to be just Champions and Mega Drive that I at all enjoy.

I'd kiss that hedgie

I think Blaze is kind of boring and painfully overrated. She has an interesting design, cool powers and a neat role, but the base of her personality is boring and not even mildly fun. I think Rouge, Amy and even Honey (in the comics) managed to be fun or engaging in their introductions but Blaze is just "I am guardian of Sol Emeralds hmph mph I'm going to burn you where's Eggman Nega I sure do love having friends" and she just never stood out to me.

Sorry to hear that, man. I still enjoy the hell out of them.

Yeah, I don't think a concrete reason was ever given, but he just disappeared all over the place in the last year or so. I hope he comes back, but who knows if he will

I didn't finish Sonic Mania because I lost interest after the last stage. I have less than 2 hours on Steam with Mania.

Keep it comics and racing game related

>2 KB

What is this, a totem pole for ants?

>I've never played best boost game
HEATHEN

No

You could cherrypick at any character like that and make them sound just as boring.

>best Boost game
I think he's already played Generations.

how do you fuck up this badly

Nice Sonic Totem for Archimedes, Sonicfag.

Sonic Colors is a 2.5D game with sometimes 3D boost.

I agree, she's very overrated to me.

>the more times I read through the post-SGW books, the less I like them.
yeah. the fact that it abruptly ended just makes all the less than adequate parts stick out more. Way too much werehog/unleashed tie in, countdown to chaos is awful, world's unite is awful, and while I appreciate the larger focus on game characters, the older Archie characters that stuck along mostly just waste space and pad out issue length like filler.
I still like it, but where as before it was tied with the preboot golden age for me it's now easily ranked below it, which is a shame because I actually like the direction it takes on being more familiar to tyhe core sonic identity, but it has a serious identity crisis.
Not giving up on IDW though like many people are.

This better?

definitely
much better

...

Will Sonic Heroes get a remake?

don't worry, I got u senpai

You've got a damn good point, and I shouldn't have generalized her like that, sorry user.

Either way I'm not saying people can't like her, but she has very little going for her that I actually like. I'm just not a fan of the defrosting ice queen archetype, and she's not handled well enough for me to really start liking it. Her 06 depiction is also pretty blandto me. She's cute and has a great design and motif but all I can think about is how boring it'd be to actually have her around.

So I was digging through old files recently, and I found stuff that, I thought at least, was fairly interesting. I'll only post a couple of pictures so as not to gum up the thread:
Date: Late 2009
(This file, and likely any other files after this one, had to be converted from their original file due to upload issues.)
A early attempt at 3D Classic Sonic. (There was no generations at this point, so I was running under the assumption there never would be a official model)
The farthest back was the first attempt, zero proper reference and probably among the first CG models I had ever made.
Middle was a redone version using the official character sheet as a base. Far superior in every way.
Metal here was also made with the official model sheets.
Any differences between the two made off of the official character sheets and the ones in generations and after seem to purely be a matter of them wanting their models to look "cutesier" then I wanted them. Also I was 100% on model to those sheets for better or worse when making these.

Basically how I feel.
And I also think that IDW is going to be a lot better than lots of anons here think it will. The problem with reboot was it had all this baggage from the old continuity it had to juggle and it became hard to identify who/what was important and who/what wasnt.
IDW is starting fresh so that won't be an issue. Plus the other issue the reboot had was being to hamfisted with mandates, which we now know have been eased back a bit. We'll probably never get anything LIMIT-tier again which is unfortunate but we will get something closer to it this time.

I can see how the the abrupt cancellation can do that, honestly. The amount of build up & things that were gonna be explored down the line just feels like a waste knowing that we're never gonna get a proper resolution. I heavily preferred the direction post-SGW took & I still love the hell out of arcs like Shattered, Champions, Shadow Fall, etc. but it pains me knowing we're never getting a conclusion on all the shit set up in the comics. Unless Ian gets his wish & IDW brings it back, but that depends on the demand for it & if IDW Sonic does well anyways.

Will IDW bring back post-SGW Archie Sonic in a different line?

Date: Also late 2009
Front view. If you wanted to you could probably match these up with those model sheets and see how close they are to them.

I doubt it that stuff is ever returning, but he may recreate some arcs he was going to use.

Hey the totem pole says it's possible. Who are we to doubt it?

Neat!

Why is Shadow so cute?

Will we ever get another fighting game?

fluffy chesthair

Because you're either a rancid fujo or a flaming homosexual.

Will I be able to see an /sthg/ user soon?

Will Penders ever admit that he was wrong and stop claiming the characters?

Knew /sthg/ would pull through

Date: Mid 2010
This was a attempt at 3D level design playing to the strengths of moving in 3D space while adhering to 2D principles. Originally for a group fangame project from around then I have since forgotten the name of. In the end only some flowers I had made were ever used for anything before that bit the dust.
It looks like a mess visually, but with the camera where it should be, it could of been very playable, if finished.

I wanna touch it.

Stop making fun of me!

please anything except this shit again

Put that shit in Bumper Engine. Do it.

Looks interesting, were you going for a Sonic 1 base witg the middle there?

Date: Mid-ish 2010
A image created to show off what I could do at the time. I had/have the entire ending sequence from Sonic 1 modeled out like this, but with the disparity between 3D Canvas (the program I was using at the time) and anything more modern, I'm not sure if it would survive intact. Also I distinctly remember the UVs being a royal pain and a half to do for the entire length of the "stage".

that looks like fun. I second this

Because he's Sonic trying to be cool.

>hallays in midair over a pit
No thanks, not a fan of Heroes or 3DS!Lost World.

Best Sonic form, /sthg/?

BritSanic in a league all of his own

>Heroes
Try SA1. Basically every 3D Sonic game did this shit, don't understand why.

I mean, it might be possible, I still have the source file, but the stage was made with the intention of there being splines in a few places so I don't know how well that'd work.

They were based on pic related and its metal equivalent. It's interesting to see my attempt in conjunction with segas official attempt clearly using the same base.

I get the feeling I was intending at the time for the entire thing to be either invisible walled so you couldn't fall off in moronic ways or have wing fortress zone like fans underneath to blow you back up if you were to fall.
