Humanized Sonic! He was actually one of the first ones I designed out of the whole cast.
Besides the robot characters, I try to make my humanized versions a bit more natural looking, instead of having really crazy anime hair and fantasy outfits. My goal was to make human versions that would invoke the same kind of feelings and reactions from the other characters and audience as their mobian counterparts do. Basically, as if I had to retell all of the Archie Sonic history, but with humans instead of mobians. I'm avoiding the typical gijinka look of KPOP boy with blue emo hair. Personally, that's just not my bag, and I've seen it done too many times to do it myself. Cool beans if that's what you like, it's just not for me.
Still, I think I may go back and make his hair a bit more blue for the sake of looking more "Sonic". It's a dark dark blue, but it may be too subtle.
I made a problem for myself by designing Sonic and the Metals separately. Now they don't really look like copies of each other. I'll have to go back and tweak the Metal line's designs some more, but I'm pretty happy with both sides. They just don't match up… :V
