She got to kiss Sonic's finger!
>>147887129
Like who?
>>147887337
Anyone who would treat her better than Sonic honestly. I don't even like Amy that much, but Sonic's kind of a shitter to her.
>>147887516
Even Eggman?
>>147887581
Well, probably not Eggman.I think he pointed a gun at her once.
>>147887516
Welcome to what happens when you obsessively hunt someone down all the time and try to force them into a one-sided relationship that would do nothing but restrict the thing he enjoys the most.
i wanna draw things for you all for some reason. help make that happen. just nothing weird.

Pretty sure he means 3 8-hour shifts back to back, 2 days in a row. I remember doing that myself.I also remember the extremely large urge to kill myself after the first day.
>>147887948
Maw smiling menacingly while wiping blood from his mouth

The pic on >>147884148 is used to create hype for E3 by spamming it with "X <months or days> left to E3" as a message. Can you make one for /sthg/ with a Sonic character to create hype for events and stuff?
>>147889868
God, can't seem to do anything right tonight >>147887948
>>147889935

do you care if people color your pics?
>>147890108
You know what else ceased to exist?Hope
>>147889153
this is cool. here. I totally ripped off osmething else.
>>147890176
not at all
>>147890251
Can you draw more maskless Nephthys? She has quickly become my favorite eggboss.
>>147890251
Holy crap, that was a quick turnaround. Too cool, ABT.
>>147890176
I don't care either.Do it faggot
>>147890223
Touché
at least he doesn't remember her unlike certain fox who lost his familygranted it was shit familyand the ones he loved
oh hey abt if you are in hereand if it isn't too much of a problemcan you draw Tails
>>147890592
I'm just a pleb with mspaint bucket fill skills. But since /sthg/ always has sketches, I might practice on these. Any recommendations on coloring learning?
>>147890915
do them on separate layers
>>147889004
>>147890753
Tails doesn't remember his family either, so it's all good.
>>147891001
>separate layers
>MS Paint
>>147891057
This version of Amy is pretty much the only thing I wanted to carry over from STC.
Someones actually posting all these images to theridebooru right?
>>147891057
How are you so fast abt? Hot damn?
>>147891197
I know I'm saving them all, at the very least.
>>147891076
>>147891087
just fucking download sai or gimp ya pleb
>>147891087
Just get Gimp
>>147891334
Not the same anon, just saying he said MS Paint.
>>147891334
They forgot everything.
>>147891057
Abt, the anon that asked for it, it's beautiful.
Thanks man, you're awesome.
>>147891334
>>147891387
First anon, I actually got gimp, but my skills are pretty much bucket-fill tier.
>>147891524
Look up some video tutorial
>>147888364
>>147891524
tl;dr
On a different layer from the lines, draw lines where each layer of shading connect, fill the lighter side with the normal color and fill the darker side with, say, a 30% darker tone of that color. Or fill it all in with the color, make the line and fill the side of the line that's darker with a 30% grey or something. I can't remember which youtube animator used this trick but his tutorial on it was more in depth and he colored and shaded a sketch of his in barely 10 minutes. At the very least what I said should at least point you down the right road.
>>147891881
Lots of action in this pic. Love it!
>>147891881
Damn that is nice
>>147890396
hmmmm... no I dont wanna do that for some reason. hmmm.

>>147892560
>no I don't wanna do that for some reason
Is this a hint of things to come?
Or are you just being mean?
>>147891429
in time anon
they'll suffer before that
>>147888157
how could i possibly top that pic you have.
>>147892828
By having Bunnie holding in laughter while doing it and Sally being blissfully unaware that she's doing it.
Though it's fine if you pass this one up to do another person's request.
>>147892765
The former, I'm sure
>>147892560
Maw is by far my favorite of the male Egg Bosses. I'm intrigued by what he's got going on

What's the 3D Sonic game that's the shortest, not counting Generations?
>>147893976
LIFE'S AN OPEN BOOK
>>147893976
Zerbahead or Crush 40 ver.The answer is Zebrahead
>>147894094
Rivals?
>>147894094
Sonic R
I like some of the songs from Sonic Underground
>>147894202
Zebrahead is more nostalgic but 06 feels more majestic
>>147894202
Agreed. I've said this before but crush 40 covers of other sonic songs dont hold up compared to others
>>147894389
You're not wrong
>>147894365
Crush 40* not 06
>>147894306
Double D plz go
>>147894365

Uh you mean Crush 40?

Crush 40.
The rap shit in ZH kills me. Plus 40 has the better version instrumentally.

>>147894664
Only if you get it for like $5.
>>147893280

>>147890909
i hate drawing tails
>>147894692
Muh durr muh ZHI bet you don't even like Knuckle's rap
>>147894664
The port is fine (less content than the Wii U version), but it's still Lost World, so I don't really recommend it unless you get a steep discount or REALLY love Sonic.
>>147894664
I just finished it.
It's alright. Some stages like the snowball don't play as well as I assume they do on the Wii U.
Also in terms of the actual game, Lost World is a game with good ideas and bad execution so...take that how you will.
>>147894789
I like Knuckle's music because it's hip hop. White boy rapping is nothing but cringe and has never been anything but.

Interesting, I just looked up the Crush 40 version andI don't think I've heard it before.
>>147894897
>a game with good ideas and bad execution
That's a lot of Sonic games

Thanks I like itis he that much harder to draw or do you just not like him?
>>147895259
Thanks for coming by, ABT! It was greatly appreciated.
>>147895259
It was nice having you again. I would say take notes from Stanley. Her Tails is extremely solid in my opinion. Probably one of the characters she draws the best.
>>147895259
B-but he came out so cute.
>>147895259
>i cant seem to get him right ever, thanks though it was fun. im out.
O-oh
I appreciate that you drew himI'm sorryalso don't worry your Tails is just the way he should be
cute
Stayed up too late as it is, will update the wall tomorrow with all the new requests. Thanks by visiting and drawing for us again, ABT senpai.
So, how many of you have yet to accept that SA3 is happening?
>>147895625
I've accepted that I have zero idea of what is happening.
>>147895625
If we get SA3 i'll break a beer bottle over my head
>>147895625
The same amount that thinks that fire and ice is the anniversary game
>>147895625
does this mean more Chao Gardens
>>147895625
I accept that Sonic 06 was SA3. They fucked it up, the adventure series died there.
>>147895625
I haven't. The worst part is that I'm not certain what's going to happen with Modern, and between SA3 and nothing (which are the two most likely options), all options suck.
>>147895697
But it is. It's the only big game coming this year
>>147895674
Can we take a moment to appreciate this? SEGA has actually kept an air-tight seal on this 25th things. I'm kind of amazed considering their track record.
>>147895767
Sonic '06 became '06 because it failed as SA3
What if the game is Sonic 4 Ep3
>>147895259
>Miss abt hanging out by 15 minutes
Reee
>>147895959
I think its funny considering how thirsty people are for news.
Looks like Mega Drive confirms that Sonic CD takes place after Sonic 3 & Knuckles... in the comics, at least. I still think it's vagueness in the games' timeline is appropriate, considering that the entire game is based off of time travel.
>>147896451
>tfw we will never get Sonic CD 2
Just call it Sonic 32x
>>147896451
>Trying to create a accurate timeline for Sonic games
>>147896625
Sonic Historia when?
>>147896684
Seeing how Classic and Modern are the same age, all his adventures took place in 1 year have fun sorting that

So I'm possibly going to start collecting the paperbacks of the comic, curious as to how many there have been released?

Love you, abt.
Full homo.
Thanks for dropping by even if I did miss all the art action.
>>147910457
http://sonic.wikia.com/wiki/Category:Archie_Comics_trade_paperbacks
It's pretty hot today.
>>147911064
Thanks, but it confirmed my worries of it being fragmented.
So the paperbacks cover
Main Comic 0-91, 162-194, 225-230, & 252-259/more if the current paperbacks continue
All the specials
Sonic Universe 1-59
Knuckles 1-25
Both Mega Man Crossovers
All of Boom
and then some individuals here and there shoved together out of order in various other paperbacks
Is that about right? If so that sucks that over 100 issues are supposedly in rights dispute with Penders if I read that right.
This thread needs more Eggman.

>>147927453
>>147926512
it's a shame the sonic fanbase is relatively mellow nowadays. shit like this is why i fell in love with this fandom in the first place
>>147930661
Yoto, you are too good to us!
>>147914175
Should note that there's a lot that have been delayed seemingly indefinitely along with some just not continuing at all.
>>147930995
To be fair that's an old one. That being said, if they make a sonic heroes 2, I sure do hope Blaze is on team rose.
I'd love it if all four covers of Genesis of a Hero are the victory screens of Sonic 1-Knuckles
>>147931440
So Blaze is Speed, Cream is flight and Amy is power
>>147932217
I dunno. Blaze is kind of weirdly slow. That coupled with her fire powers would make her a shoe-in for power.
>>147932217
here's a graphic I did of what I would've liked to see in Heroes 2, people didn't like it but here's what i was thinking:
>only have three teams
>with the exception of the end where the speed character's form a super team.
>don't have the teams be speed, power and fly, keep speed because its fun but have the others be diverse.
>also mix up the teams form what you expect, like amy with sonic, or knuckles with shadow and Blaze with the chaotix.
if they did do heroes 2 i think people would prefer a custom team mode anyway.
>>147932369
Blaze is slow? she debuted with the boost?
>>147932162
I think Sonic 2, 3, and Knuckles' endings would look too similar for that.
>>147932862
Yeah, but if boost was a thing in Sonic 3 & Knuckles, Knuckles would have it too. Blaze has boost because that game has boost, just like how tails and knuckles can spindash because the games they're from have it as a core mechanic.
http://www.strawpoll.me/10705846
>>147933581
she still more speed than Amy.
Blaze - gameplay wise - she is sonic with another skin
I wonder.
Was Amy born without back spines?
Is that why she doesn't spin into a ball? I can't imagine it's that she's not flexible enough. And I don't even think spines are necessary because Tails can do it. Or is she just too scared to tear her cute dress to shreds?
I'm just curious because the core of her gameplay is that she's basically the opposite of sonic, in that she can't kill enemies simply by jumping into them nor rolling into them, meaning she's got to stop to attack or avoid enemies more often than not.

The spines didn't fit into the final design. There's your answer.
