Artist's Comments

This pic took one of the longest to date... mostly because it was four separate pictures, done individually, and then merged together. I'll probably upload the individual sub-pictures into scraps or something later. Anyway, I've been working on this on and off for a few days.

Anyway: the Big Three and Triple Threat of Sonic, Knuckles and Tails, in both their normal and "super" forms, using COA (my long ass fanfic) inspired looks and gear... though Knuckles doesn't really appear in COA until the sequel, NWO. The Sonic and Knuckles "scenes" are just random things I thought up for the pic, while the Tails one was meant to be an illustration of a scene in COA:ACO where he jumps onto an extreme GEAR while blocking several bullets shot at him (in chapter 3).

I made a few changes to the usual super forms. Super Sonic is basically unchanged, but for Hyper Knuckles I made him a bit spikier looking. For Turbo Tails the big change was to turn the "flicky bird summons" he has into little chaos energy demons (rather than real birds). In fitting with my trying to more sharply differentiate the "fighting styles" of the characters in COA, this makes Tails the "long range" type of the trio, while Sonic is "mid range" due to jump attacks and Knuckles is "close range." Thus Knuckles relies entirely on melee, Sonic hits and runs, and Tails stands back at a distance and uses his "chaos familiars" to attack and defend.

It is also worth noting that I used a different approach to inking these pics than usual. I normally digitally ink from scanned pencil art, but in this case I inked by hand before scanning to get stronger lines.

Oi, Sonic's so lazy! Tails should whip him into action.

"Laid back" is a kinder description, but I interpret Sonic's character as the type who only goes from extremes of hyper activity to leisurely inactivity. Bi-polar metabolism or something. lol

Thanks. I was trying to get a "falconer" type feel for it, with the hunting bird perched on someone's glove.
:iconrylaktyrnda:
Hmm...:shrug: I'm kinda like that too.
