So that's how she lost her cheek fur!

I don't read the comics, so I'm not 100% sure what's up with that redesign and all, or even if Sally is as much of a b*tch as people say she is. So, don't blame me if you don't get a chuckle out of this.

Yo, dawgs, it be Fiz the Ancient's birthday!

In case it isn't obvious, it's been a long time since I've drawn the Sonic style.

When I drew this, it was a bit early in the season for this sort of thing, but... what can I say? We need Coal all year round!

Out of nowhere, M.T. Fox (aka Paul Prower), drew me two bits of fan art for my Backing Out comic strip. So I drew him this! Hope you like it, Paul. (One of his pics is on the BO guest art page, here's the other one). Too bad I'm too young to remember “The Raccoons”, an 80's TV show, but I still like the pic.

You will all hate me for this. :)

BTW, Fiona is a robot programmed by Dr. Robotnick to lure Tails into a trap, just in case you were wondering about the metalic eyes. She was featured in the Archie Sonic Comic book issue #28 as Tails' first love.

I prefer Manga Tails to “Archie Comics” Tails. In fact, I feel the only Mobian character who gets drawn more inconsistently than Tails is Antoine!

I bought “Sonic the Hedgehog: The Movie” on DVD. It was pretty disappointing overall, and absolutely nothing like the SATAM shows (Saturday AM cartoon series), and a lot like Sonic Adventure. As for Tails, his voice is nasal and dorky in the movie, but at least he has a much bigger role than in the SATAM series, and he's drawn correctly, too! If you love Tails, pick up the DVD for cheap.

Ah, Deluxe Paint! Just for fun, I thought I'd throw in my typical drawing environment for 1990-1994. Yes, things did have to be done one pixel at a time with a maximum of 32 colors on the Amiga 1000. The A1200 could go to 256 colors, which barely edged out the PC VGA standard (which can only display 256 colors in low res). How much of my life did I waste doing dithering by hand?

Now that's when computer illustration was actually fun. Today it's just work. :)
