Today’s theme is Chaotix Casefiles. I really enjoyed the audio drama! Obviously, for me, the highlight was Infinite’s return!
For today’s drawing, I illustrated a moment in episode seven that always makes me laugh. Vector points out an inconsistency in Infinite’s evil plan, and this is his response. It’s even better when you actually listen to it, and hear the absolute disgust in his voice.
My theme today was Chao Garden, so of course, my mind immediately went to Sonic Adventure 2, because I’m still playing around with that Chao Garden, despite having beaten the game around a year ago.
I also wanted to do a slightly Halloween-themed drawing, so I drew Rouge the Bat holding a Chao wearing the pumpkin mask.
A couple months ago, I finally bought Sonic Racing: Crossworlds! It’s really fun! I decided to draw Sonic riding Extreme Gear (in non-Sonic terms, a hoverboard), because it’s the main vehicle I ride in the game.
For day 4, I drew Amy. She’s another Sonic character I’ve loved since I was little. And she’s still one of my favorites to this day! I always love drawing her because she has one of the cutest designs in the series, and pink is my favorite color! And I had to include her hammer, of course.
It’s been a while since I’ve drawn Knuckles digitally. He still appears a lot in my Sonic-themed sketchbook pages, because he is one of my favorite Sonic characters. When I was little, he was my absolute favorite Sonic character, so I do still have a soft spot for him to this day.
For day 2 of Sonictober, I decided to draw Tails! There was a slight mishap while I was drawing this one, as my laptop came unplugged and I lost my progress. That was annoying, but, luckily, since these drawings are fast, I was able to draw a new one pretty quick!
I always enjoy drawing Tails! He’s got such a cute design!
I’m doing Sonictober again this year! Only this time I’m doing it digitally. My goals this year are to get better at drawing Sonic characters, to play around with my digital inking skills, and to get back in the swing of drawing without overthinking it. I’ve been going through some really serious art block for the past few months. I have still been drawing, of course, but not as much as I want to—besides my shop, comic, and art class (yes, this is the blog post where I announce that I’ve started college). Hopefully, this will help me get back on track.
I wrote down a prompt list for myself. This year isn’t so much based on whacky things I’ve done while playing Sonic games (though it is possible that some of that might come up). It’s mostly just Sonic things. There are some characters, some items from the series, and much more. For day one, I just decided to start with Sonic himself. I wanted to draw him in his classic pose from the original box art for the first game. I think it came out really nice! I was thinking about leaving it black and white, but since I’m working digitally, I must use gradients, because I love gradients!
The year is coming to an end. You know what that means. It’s time for this year’s Summary of Art!
2025 has definitely been one of my best drawing years. I was super confident in my art this year, and I drew a lot of stuff that was very me. I feel like I’ve improved a lot this year, but I guess that happens every year.
In these last couple months, there’s been some struggles (elbow pain is my worst enemy, as an artist), but I still drew some really good drawings!
Anyway, that’s enough introduction. Let’s get into it!
I honestly forgot that this one was from this year. I thought I drew it last year.
Anyway, even though it’s an older drawing, I still think it’s one of my best drawings of Sonic. I feel like I captured his design and attitude perfectly!
This was when I was starting my second Sonic Frontiers playthrough. I was inspired by the giant field of flowers on Kronos Island in the game, and I wanted to draw it. And I decided to add the kocos in, too, because they’re cute!
I remember that inking that field of flowers took forever. But, in the end, I’m really happy with out it came out!
I went over the story of this one in my Sonic Forces Shenanigans post. I’m still really happy with that fire effect.
This is an early drawing of him, but it’s still one of my favorites. I love the lighting on his mask. And his hair turned out really nice, too!
Although, one thing that I realized later on is that his one hand may or may not be on backwards. I feel like I placed his thumb a little weirdly. But, it’s too late. The drawing’s already done. And, even with that little mistake, I’m still really happy with it!
I know, I know. I’ve said it a thousand times on this blog. But I’ll say it again. Sonic Forces is my favorite Sonic game, because I’m so cool and different! (No. It’s because I played the game and genuinely loved it. But I am still cool and different, because I’m a creative person).
Anyway, this drawing is meant to look like the cover for the Sonic Forces album, Vocal Traxx On the Edge. It was really fun playing around with different techniques! And the logo turned out really good, too. I drew it by hand, and I’m really proud of myself for putting in that effort!
This drawing took forever! I had so many layer folders to keep the characters and the background all nice and organized. But it turned out really good!
Although, I do think it’s funny that I gave my OC the Hover Wispon. NEVER use the Hover Wispon when you’re fighting Infinite! It literally deals no damage. Use the Lightning one, and just smack him with the lightning whip over and over again. Just a pro gamer tip from Shadez.
Just some Sonic characters doing funny expressions. That’s all.
This is based on a fanfiction that I started this summer. It’s Sonic characters in a fantasy setting. Sonic is an awesome knight (inspired by Sonic and the Black Knight, obviously). Infinite is the main antagonist. He’s a warlock who’s trying to bring the demons to the mortal world to destroy it.
I haven’t worked on it in a long time. Writing fanfiction is a little tricky, and I don’t do it as often as I used to. But it still is fun whenever I feel like doing a bit of writing. But, yeah, I would like to pick up this story again someday. I was pretty proud of it!
Finally! Some Warcraft art!
If you’ve read my comic, I’m sure you recognize my dwarf warrior, Argrim. The other is his wife, Shaimina, my dwarf rogue. My story that I had in mind when I drew this is that they had their first date at Brewfest.
I’m really happy with the colors on this one! I was specifically going for a warm, cozy color palette. I think I captured the look I was going for pretty well!
Some of my best Sonictober drawings! I go into more detail on these drawings in their original post. They’re both based on funny things my younger siblings did. And I’m still really happy with that Mephiles! It was my first time ever drawing him!
I’ve never played Sally Face. But my sister has. So, I decided to draw both of our favorite knife-wielding, traumatized horror protagonists.
This one’s inspired by one of the Sonic IDW comic variant covers. I had a lot of fun with the poses, and that dramatic lighting!
And, that’s my 2025 Summary of Art! I hope you all enjoyed the drawings, and have a happy New Year!
For my last Sonictober page, I drew three more of the Halloween skins from Sonic Forces: Speed Battle. This game has some really awesome outfits, okay?
On the 29th, I drew Mummy Knuckles. I’m really happy with how his crown turned out!
Yesterday, I drew Witch Rouge. I always enjoy drawing witch/wizard hats!
And, today, I drew Reaper Metal Sonic. As far as I know, he doesn’t seem to have a scythe in the game, but I decided to give him one on my drawing.
And that wraps up Sonictober! I had a lot of fun doing these doodles all month! And I didn’t miss a single day!
Happy Halloween, everyone!
