Oh Nothing, Just Thinking About The Ramifications Of Shadow Carrying Sonic Through Space While He's Slowly

Oh nothing, just thinking about the ramifications of Shadow carrying Sonic through space while he's slowly fading away and then remembering how Shadow died in SA2. That's gonna bring back some memories.

YALL CHECK THIS OUT

Don't know how many hours I spent animating this but it feels like it took years off my life :)✨

I'd also like to share just how rough my boards were for this. I'd done this bit awhile ago so I completely forgot how much I was winging it lol

Imagine if after the events of 06 instead of there being a scene about resetting the timeline or whatever, there was just a scene of everyone recovering from the absolute MESS that was End of the World/Final Story, and in that scene, Silver gets to sit down and actually see a clear starry sky for the first time. Shadow shows him the constellations and such, practically infodumping about astronomy while Silver intently listens, amazed by the pretty sights.

I just like the idea of Shadow being the older brother for characters in need, its pretty neat. Shadow and Knuckles are very similar in the aspect that they keep obtaining brothers they didn't want.

I also think that Silver didn't get much of an opportunity in the game (gee it's like there was a specific reason the character may not have been fleshed out SEGA TIME CUTS) to be new to the past world and truly appreciate it. There's so many new things for him to experience like new foods, sights, diverse ecosystems, weird politics, heck even being cold for the first time. Boy was probably freezing going from the climate of "everything is on fire and the magma is still molten in some places" to "temperate wetland" pretty big temperature change.

I love this piece so much though down to the color theory it's actually so great Maria looks like a real person with a personality and everything I love it.

me on my knees begging for a tails and nine interaction in season 3 🙏🙏🙏

take to the skies, forgotten fox boy <3

Chaos Battle goes crazy

Have Fleetway and Shadow ever fought in the comics? I don't think they have. It'd be so neat, Shadow who's constantly having to hold back his energy against Super who cannot contain himself in the slightest. Plus this is a good piece to plug my chaos energy headcanon (interpretation?) that wielders have their own sort of signature and Sonic's is fire while Shadow's is electricity. They look a lot alike.

Idk what color Fleetway's chaos energy is, but I wanted to work with color pelleting so i made a pink that was on the exact opposite side of the color wheel from Shadow's lime green

I did a lot of practice with line weight in this which I then completely overshadowed with visual effects. It's fine I'm not mad at all. Not in the slightest.

Is this gonna be the Year of 3's for Sonic?

Sonic Prime Season 3

Sonic Movie 3

There's rumors about Sonic Adventure 3 (when are there not, but stillll)
