Haven't really had much motivation for art lately, but the recent Sonic Mania Opening Animation got me pretty inspired to make some Sonic sprites.

The sprite is half based off of the artwork in the animation and half my own style. I wanted to make a sprite that would stand out when comparing it to other Sonic sprites by choosing a different, warmer palette, as apposed to the typical cold palettes most people use for Sonic. I also wanted to show Sonic's more childlike, happy go lucky personality traits, rather than the edgy 90's, cocky attitude, many people portray.
On the first frame of the crouch animation to the right I made his hand go a little too far down for the frame. I'm going to want to move it up a bit, make his hand more of a fist, and save the hand touching the ground for the next frame.
I also made some alternate palettes of Sonic 1, 2, 3, and Mania for fun. They aren't really relevant though...
