"Bah, should've posted before the clock ticked, not after. I guess this makes the first drawing of that year eh?
Also got sick already. With runny nose, occasional coughs, that thing. It's been a long, loong while, but seriously. There just had to be a special way to celebrate times like this. (thanks bro >: ()
Maybe subtly inspired by TMS art direction (presumably from the animated short “Man of the Year”), because believe or not, It's my favourite take on an animated Sonic.
Also new watermark, a non-pixelated, snazzy one at that. Might go through a few revisions.
Other than that, Happy New Year!
Stay safe and don't lose your confidence. Feels like forever since I last said that, didn't I?
Give out some comments here if you want to talk about it or even fave it.

First drawing of '22. Still a bunch, but also not much from the current post who probably would no longer be current anymore. Hope you guys have a good year out there.

Even if it's against their will, they still have a right to celebrate.
Man of the Year was sick, and this piece turned out great, cartoony and still cool looking.
This got me to check out Man of the Year and it looks like animation from an episode of Tiny Toons taking place in a world that belongs in an episode or ReBoot. Was there no part two? Is this another unfinished cartoon alongside the last episode of SatAM? Why does Sega do that?
Anyways, I adore two aspects of this - For one, Eggman is front and center and far more expressive than everyone else here. He is the best and should always look his best. For another, the little detail about Metal Sonic who may be loyal to the doctor, but never seems to bother helping him when it's just Eggman embarrassing himself... while still being the best, of course.
ICam2k responds:
Given that TMS's experience with these shows (among others like that that I don't know of), that's a pretty reasonable comparison. Granted, the only parts I did like about this short are Sonic and Eggman really. Eggman especially, he easily steals the show given how much energy he oozes with these expressions.
Nope, there's no part two. This short was found only in Sonic Jam and nowhere else. 30 years means too much time for them to continue a series that would've otherwise lasted 2-3 parts.
Sega only gives stuff to what they think people want. That's how it is.
Really goes show how flexible the doctor is, which is impressive. Eggs are pretty fragile.
What can I say, sentient robots do be like that.
