Hey look, previews! ::jazz hands::

It's a three-fer this week! Um...with maybe some surprises in store, for anyone who hasn't read the story before, so enjoy, I guess, and no, I'm not offering huge explanations here because that'd be...y'know, spoilers.

But hey, there's one with the in-mind version of Sonic turning a mite yellow, and I'm pretty happy with that one. (Though I realized after the fact that, unlike the other two pictures I did of Sonic in his head, this one I forgot to use the rougher shading brush and instead used the same one as on all the other illustrations. Oh well. It's still fine.)

Then one in a forest scene that almost ended up too muddy because I messed with it too much before I caught it and dialed it back. Also realizing that I drew Rotor's Season 1 design, but gave him a bit more of an Archie color scheme, and I'm okay with this. (I do not like his Season 2 design.) The odd mat shape is mostly due to the way I did the lineart. It was not a square, and I didn't feel like forcing it.

And then the third picture, the one illustration from this entire series that took me the longest. I spent far too much time on playing with this one, but honestly, I think it was worth it. I'm really happy with the lighting effects on it, and unlike the second picture, I don't feel like the time spent on messing with it further was wasted (I didn't have to undo anything unlike some of the muddy shading on the forest scene). I did have to go back and up the saturation on Knuckles a tad because it came out too yellow/desaturated, but that was about it.

And hey, Knux is pink again. Hm.

What's this? Monday's chapter?

Yes! And a bit of a banger if you ask me, but that would be because it's the peak of the story's action. There's two chapters to go after this, but this is where most of the plot comes to a head.

Enjoy!
