This was supposed to stay as a simply colored sketch but damn that Mania music is kickin!
So Happy 26th birthday so Mr.Needlemouse-- I mean Sonic!!

I was also lowkey timing myself on how fast I could shoot this thing out, a tru speed draw in and of itself
It took only abt 2 and a half hours which is g o o d for my standards, especially for a pic of this quality to come out!!!
This is my first time drawing classic tho can u tell-- //shot
But Im SUPER happy with how this came out, especially the background since I was doing a lot of testing with the paintbrushes Autodesk has (I've never painted with em before ha h a) so Im glad it came out super well!!!

Anyway, He's a big part of my life and my drawing career whether I like it or not at time but I cant imagine bein around without the little booger, so here's to more, hopefully more successful years! And so far, this one's turning out to be pretty great!
