The result came out great. But i HIGHLY disagree on prohibiting people making a hedgehog. There is nothing wrong in creating a hedgehog, the problem is that they are over-used, making them difficult to stand out or NOT to look similar to other characters like Sonic, Shadow and Silver (The three that people inspire to make their hedgehog most of the time) So fellas, don't listen to him on that (Sorry man xD), but beware, making an hedgehog look different from the ones you know is hard, so i suggest to do your best to stand out. Overall, i like the video, great job, left a like and liked the character you came up to. Does he has a name? If he dosen't, i don't know why but i named him Mirth. Cheers from Brazil.

ngl as my first oc I just based it on the IDW comics. I saw how starline created surge and kit for the counterpart of sonic and tails. I was thinking about what if there was a counterpart for our boy knux. I then decided to create a hyena (cuz lion king made me actually love them) and tried to base her off pure strength that could and I quote “COULD” rival that of knuckles’. I of corise didn’t want her to be straight up comparable to knux so I gave her a handicap that she can only do much damage on him if she has a certain gadget/robo-arm on that gives her tremendous strength. it’s still work in progress so some things may change

I found that the ideal way (perhaps too good) to give flavor and interesting seeds for further character, backstory, and even design for your character is to combine them with whatever big interest you think can benefit. Indecisive on how to make my gloomy fox boy beyond "donut steel" material, it sparked on me to turn him into a Great War veteran, given my great interest (to say it lightly) on the lattter-Victorian/WW1/interwar periods. This gave a rather logical reasoning behind his grey attitudes and aggressive demeanor, not to mention that him being a darker shade of red logically led him to being an analog to the Red Baron in his time, further explaining some of his tendencies while also leaving some room for non-historical nuggets to tune him here and there given he's an analog in a parallel world, Sonic's world. This also raises the interesting dilemma: "How can this hopelessly outdated and now outmached ace of an age bygone cope with his new enviornment?" Of course, with an interest like mine while searching for explanations, it easily spiraled off into also detailing his homeland and war, eventually even affecting Tails indirectly, but I say it goes to show how much the synergy between your interests and your OC can power up.

I've actually made a few in the past - and some redesigns of already existing characters. My two big ones are Pearl the Platypus and Max the Kangaroo (the latter pretty much being a cowboy). The Sonic art style is a lot of fun to work with, and if you're trying to experiment with character art or just starting I definitely see a lot of potential in it. I do a lot of other things for characters too - I've made some D&D stylized stuff as well. But I enjoy a lot of different designs. It's cool to see other people dedicated to making stuff like this too. Also, sick OCs by the way! I like the designs you showed off.

When I create OCs, I always take it in a logical way in the actual series, like if i'm going to give my OC powers how does that makes since in the universe of Sonic? I also don't actually put myself (Self-Insert) in the universe just a character I created and put them in the universe. Like for example, Dakota the Arctic Wolf (My Sonic OC) is a Ninja from the Wolf Clan who live in the deep tundra of the Ice Cap Zone of Angel Island. Dakota is a calm & collected Arctic Wolf with the power of Aerokinesis (Manipulation of Air/Wind) inherited from his ancestors. Which, whom might be one of the reasons of why Angel Island is floating in the sky. Dakota, can be recognized by the fact he has spirial-markings on his hands/feet. Dakota also has some-type of inate Chaos energy within him, in which he couldn't access, so it is Inhibited by a crystal Amulet he wears around his neck. There was a war between the Wolf Clan Vs. the Echidna Tribe that eventually ending in Dakota being the last of his kind of what he thought. He did learn to things from his mother/father and that is... Mother: If you keep a calm heart, your body will react/move on its own. Father: You should always set your mind on victory, no matter what the odds are. So Dakota will then set of to do his own thing after that. I made this story you just read, a couple of years ago, so hope you enjoyed it. P.S Maybe if one day if Dakota was a real thing, maybe him and Knuckles will uncover the secrets of Angel Island, in a Kunckles & Dakota Story.

After the fight between the 4 of them. Dakota recognized Knuckles from somewhere during his hunting trip with his father. During that trip he saw a lil Echidna (Knuckles) next to the Echidna's father before the whole war started a couple months prior. Dakota stopped and Knuckles got up to send Sonic, Tails, Himself and Dakota to Sky Sanctuary and the rest was history for Sonic 3 & Knuckles. By the end Dakota stayed behind for Knuckles to patch him up, while Sonic & Tails go on to take on Eggman/Death Egg Zone. When Sonic & Tails leave Angel Island Knuckles & Dakota look out at them with gratitude. Knuckles & Dakota's relationship might start a lil rocky at first (Trying to move past their grudges against one another) and eventually they will become like brothers to one another helping each other out with the fact of being the last of their respective kinds.

As someone who often draws sonic oc fanart and has their own ocs, think about where they’d fit in the universe! Do they have a fan made arc they’re apart of? Or if they’re based in the game universe do they play a big part in the game? Do they have any preexisting connections to current characters? These things can heavily influence a design! In all honesty I don’t think stereotypical backgrounds are too bad as long as you write it right! I have a few lab experiment ocs and nobody has ever told me that they’re cringe or anything so don’t be afraid to lean into tropes, just (as you said) don’t make them OP.

I've been an OC creator for YEARS, and I think this tutorial is pretty good! Although only thing I disagree with is that, hedgehogs aren't bad designs because there's too many of them. It's that they have those STUPID MONO EYES. RAGH I HATE DRAWING THEM SO MUCH!!!!😭😭😭 I love you mentioning looking up other unique animals though! It's always fun to think outside the box for a species of your animal. I recommend grabbing animals from mythology or history! They can be really interesting to learn about, add to your oc's backstory, and even give you ideas for powers that go with their stories. Some of the animals I've picked before are Unicorns, Dragons, or Jackalopes. But other animals that relate to mythology can work too! Especially if you wanna make some animals that don't have powers. I personally take a lot of design notes from Archie and IDW characters! Sure some of my stranger characters have more creative liberties, but I care more about making them fit into the cannon writing wise. (Two of my characters have robotic limbs, and some of them have highlights in their hair similar to Shadow, and others have design elements not commonly found in regular Sonic oc's, but closer to my general style.) I think an important thing to do is think about your oc's environment, and design their clothing around it! It makes your character look like an active part of whatever area of the world they inhabit. Taking inspiration from cultured clothing, or clothing from a certain time period can also be extremely fun! Or, dress your oc up in an outfit that reflects their job. I'd also like to say, I watched your other character video of making a Gacha OC into a Sonic OC! Despite me using Gacha frequently, I've never directly copied my Gacha Styles over to my artstyle that many times. I think you did a great job on that video, and this one too! I love the way your characters look, and your style is so cool! I think I'll try using the ball sketching to try and help me with my poses, since my characters bodies struggle looking different from each other. I think that tip helped me personally the most. I really liked this video! And I know this isn't your regular content, but I thought it was very fun! Both of your designing videos made me very happy. And I hope you have fun making your regular stuff! ^w^ Extra Thing: I've seen other people talking about their oc's, so I'll talk about it too! My most recent characters have been Qiang, Mei, and Lucky! They're all Chinese Lions, based off of the mythology and culture of China. Chinese Lions if you're unaware, are mythological statues built in China, and they are often told to keep out evil spirits from sacred places. During certain festivals, people will dress up as, and use a big puppet Chinese Lion with a mirror on their forehead. The mirror is used to trap, or scare off spirits. Qiang is the oldest sibling, and the prince of his kingdom. He uses a giant mirror to seal away spirits. Mei is the second oldest sibling. She doesn't have any powers, but she isn't helpless. She takes classes in physical combat, and is skilled in marcel arts. She's more competent than her brother when it comes to smarts though. And finally Lucky is their youngest sibling. He's based off of a Lucky Cat. He's a spirit, and watches over the temples near his siblings kingdoms. He's incredibly playful, and likes tricking and pulling pranks on people who are out of town. I have about 300+ characters, with a majority of them being Sonic or Sonic styled. I have some more characters who are more lore heavy but I don't wanna blab too much lol.

Already got my character details down. Name: Cluster Animal: Hawk (side note, why are there so few bird sonic OC's out there, much less bird characters in all continuities in the series?) Powers: Geokinesis. (Mainly crystal based, but can control other forms of stone as well) Amplified with the Rage Heartstone, a cursed rage-eating artifact that's bound to Cluster, but it runs the risk of him going berserker mode, to the point where he cannot differentiate friend from foe. So he tries to keep that in check. Personality: As far as earth powered characters go (being all stoic and everything), Cluster is far from being considered emotionally stable. On normal days, he's usually friendly and calm, but is quick to fly into a murderous and psychotic rage in certain situations (such as being threatened, his friends being bullied, and especially during a fight), and it often take some time, for Cluster to fully calm down. He also has a tendency to see the worst in people, which is why he isn't very fond of people like Shadow, Rouge (especially), Omega, and Surge. Other details: Cluster is a very close friend and member of the Neo Diamond Cutters (Tangle, Whisper, Lanolin, and Jewel. All of whom he may also have a small crush on, especially Lanolin). He's also a very close friend of Silver and Blaze, who he idolizes as his heroes, and likes to train and spend time with them. He has an intense fear of fog. Cluster is often nicknamed "Rock Hawk" by Sonic, Tangle, and Surge, though he absolutely hates it.

I insist on deviating as much from the Modern Sonic as is comfortable. If you're trying to make your character stand out (you as in anyone designing an OC rn), why not explore how much you're willing to stretch or break these molds while you're at it? Tails has a more rectangular head (lol or like a thumb if you remove his ears) and he's a very popular character so the head shape doesn't have to stay a circle! The roundness adds to the adorableness but there's more than one way to be round. It's really all about what you're willing to do differently, so look at your favorite Sonic characters and determine what you like the most about their designs. And that way you can examine what you actually like compared to what you're doing just to make your OC fit in. Sonic characters are inspired by cartoon aesthetics so pick an animal that you love, including a hedgehog if you really love hedgehogs, and play around with incorporating more of the actual animal. Look at other cartoon animals you love the design of and seeing if that can help you stylize your own in a way that fits. Also, consider making a chubby/fat OC (like Big) or make them tall (like Vector or Storm the Albatross.) Or give them some actual muscle regardless of gender; the noodle limbs can be cute but it's not 100% necessary. Maybe make a nonbinary character or make a character who's intentionally an adult or a little kid since a lot of them are teens or nebulous ages. Also, consider making a robot if you enjoy that! Robots are fun. If you want to get really wild and go hard mode, design a human OC (Sonic Unleashed had the most cartoon aesthetics for them but you can go with any human styles.) Or make a new villain and really go wild with it! Try out a lot of different shapes and see what sticks! Also, I do like the suggestion for living vicariously through your OC by giving them cool clothes (online catalog images are great references if they show the clothes being worn edit: same for shoes since some catalogs will show them from different angles) but there's always room for tacky, uncool OCs too lol. Regarding power levels, I always refer people to "Don't Worry Guys, Everything Isn't a Mary Sue" by Coelasquid. It's always relevant and it helps for other aspects of character creation beyond just the visual design. Sorry, this isn't me knocking the video at all, Mr. Evan Lionheart. I enjoyed the art, the tips about the color palette are great (that's actually what got me to click on the thumbnail, this new OC's color palette) but I'm suggesting these things with genuine sincerity. I've got some AoStH and Archie inspired characters and they're a bit more diverse or at least I'm trying to make them that way (even if one of them accidentally ended up with an Animal Crossing name because I didn't realize at the time but I refuse to rename my squirrel now lol.)

Im in the process of making an OC and I decided to give them a super form and let them use chaos control HOWEVER they get nowhere near the real emeralds and only have the fake emeralds after Sonic n his friends discarded them. He can’t time travel but can slow down time and teleport HOWEVER it takes a lot of energy and he can only do it every so often and after he does it he has to take a break from using it. I gave him a super form however he doesn’t know he can and he’s SIGNIFICANTLY weaker than Super Sonic, only like 1/4 of his power, any suggestions?
@evanlionheartАй бұрын
Honestly, I'm surprised how well thought out the power scaling is. The only thing I could suggest is giving them their own ability to use like Sega does. Something they'll be recognizable for. Idk if that made sense

Zeeno the robot he is a prototype of metal sonic but after some failed battery power he gave up snd thow him away but thanks to all the chaos energy around every where he is alive but in a power reserve mode he is half as fast as metal sonic in power reserve mode 75% as fast in base and in combat mode he is as fast in combat mode he has electrokinesis he uses this to make energy weapons he has energy blasters on his left are the right arm is still broke because of the amount of time he was off line he can hover like 2 feet off the ground now I don't know if he can use chaos control he might but idk he has a maximum overdrive mode he becomes 5 times faster then neo metal sonic and Aerokinesis but it is extremely Draining so it's more like a last resort if you have any other power ideas just replay and everyone is free to use this character
@rawrpopsiclesАй бұрын
another fun thing to think about your character is what type (speed, fly, power) of character are they? if they’re a more unique animal, is there animal from a country or region that has any fun beliefs on the animal? could that be added into their backstory or physical design?

My oc, (my pfp) is a hedgehog made by light Gaia for Sonic (as a companion after chip like DIED) so she’s kinda the last thing Sonic has of light giga (chip) . Since light giga and manipulate light, sover (my oc) can shapeshift (since light can make the perspective of things different and.. yeah) it’s pretty cringe ngl (I’m thinking of changing her to a cat or chinchilla)

I forgot the wolf tribe and the princess' name from Early Archie...my oc's name is Sparky...a gray wolf with a rather hidden background..while he trusts the freedom fighters...he does not head witb sonic shadow and knuckles..due to their brash "rush in without a plan" thinking..my oc gets along best with tails rouge (to a small degree) and of course gadget...my oc prefers long range supporting and recon... basically a sniper with a lazer wispen.(Not sure if that's how the weapon is spell)

Aerokinesis Users might be one of the reasons why Angel Island is floating in the air, besides the Master Emerald. You can notice them by the Spiral-Markings on their hands/Feet. Occupation: Ninja from the Wolf Clan (Wolf Clan got wiped out by the Echidna Tribe in a civil war.) Personality: Calm and a bit of an airhead, wandering around in his own thoughts. Dakota also deeply cares for children/friends and wouldn't allow them to get hurt if not necessary. He will do everything in his power to stop his friends from getting hurt. Yeah, that's my main OC.
