So I've had the amazing privilege of doing my first art request for somebody! Since I was trying to get back into the swing of things - after losing my nightmare job - I thought I'd open up some art requests, just for a limited time to get my drawing hand back into shape. Grant that this request is the first of maybe 10!

I particularly had a lot of fun working on this picture. Dynamic poses have been a more frequent occurrence in my sketchbook, so I wanted to utilize it. And baby, it worked out great!
There's just something about Hyper Sonic that I love. Now this is coming from someone who never played the games, but I've seen plenty of the Sonic videogame and anime franchise to get the gist. Maybe it's how pure the light emanating from him is. When I started laying down the flat colors - namely the white and blue - the picture almost pulled me into a trance. That's the first time that's ever happened. Most art pieces I finish just look good or mildly impressive - to me at least. I'm my own worst critic, so don't listen to my opinion!
This was my first time creating a glowing rainbow overlay - especially a rainbow with shiny star things. Yellow has been used before, but rainbows are a different story.
Needless to say, the person who requested the art loved it! I hope you do too!
Now that I look at the time, it's very late, and I have to be up early for church. I'll try to post more regularly, but it depends if time is in my favor.
Have a great night and weekend!
