Sonia the Hedgehog

[Aquaslash]

It looks too much like Sonic, why not use something more like her outfit from the show?

Palette limitations. Way too many colors going on to get in, look decent, and not break Sonic 1 to high heaven. I think there's an attempt in the sheet somewhere, and I wasn't too fond of how it turned out. I actually mulled over designs for a while, and it was evident that white was the best base color.

The red parts were originally magenta, but once I started putting the sprites in the game, it caused too many color errors so I used red instead. Ended up looking a LOT better overall. Though I've seen some that prefer the magenta.

Also, Sonia was a little taller than Sonic at first, but I reverted it since I did some more comparisons, and they are roughly the same height.

As far as looking like Sonic in the face...actually it seems there is something I can do, if this screenshot is anything to go by.

I don't think I can do too much more to the head without looking like ass, or missing the point :/
