Metal Virus - Tumblr Posts
Found Metal Virus Sonic at Walmart, yesterday.
My plan was to go over all of the silver parts with a silver metallic paint--which was not sticking to the material. I could have easily fixed this by adding a few more coats of silver, but I actually preferred the way it looked once the first coat dried. It made the metal parts look more like an infection.

Things I would have liked to seen explored in the metal virus arc: Espio dealing with not wanting to be “lead detective.” Not because he’s incapable, not because he wouldn’t be amazing at it; but because of the finality of the loss that would come with it.
Had this conversation in another post: when Vector said that line, it really had a vibe of a father passing on a position to his eldest son…a son who doesn’t feel ready for it despite being plenty capable.
What I would have loved to see in the comic; Espio grappling with the weight of that and maybe just having a moment where he feels his age. Just a little moment, at least.
I mean, the comics do a great service in letting the younger characters have moments of being young…but sometimes it feels a little disproportionate because, well…Sonic and everyone but Vector and Vanilla aren’t exactly all grown up either. Sometimes it can just come off a bit patronising/infantilising…but that’s a whole different conversation.
Back with the second part of “Things I would have liked to see in the metal virus arc.”
Pretty much the biggest thing: Vector acknowledging how freaking traumatic seeing him get zombified must have been for Espio…
But then, he -is- a great detective…so I figure that he probably already knows damn well what it must be like: the trick is that Espio would probably have to be the one to broach the subject.
And, of course, Espio being Espio…just wouldn’t.
It was actually a lot of fun to play around with -how- to portray Espio here; there’s a fine line one can dance between stoicism and just shutting down on yourself completely, and it was intriguing trying to capture what Espio is clearly feeling despite his best efforts to hide it.
Found my new hyper fixation it’s Sonic
