Sonic the Skater; something I did when I was bored

I don't know where I'm going.
Hello all! See, I've never really done any spriting, until a few days ago after I came back from a long, cold day at the skatepark. I was searching through sprites in MFZ and noticed a Sonic Genesis styled sheet with him skateboarding. I noticed it was somewhat, small. So, I decided to go out and make the blue blur on a skateboard. It's still a work in progress, but I know a guy who wants to use them for a fangame.

Here's the one I found on MFZ

and here's the one I am currently working on

Yeah. As mentioned, it's still a work in progress and it is one of my first spriting attempts. So, comments and critisicm would really be appreciated.

I'd say it's not bad for a start.

I would probably adjust the top part of the board, so it isn't 100% black. (Changing the shade to be more like a dark grey) But maybe that's just me.

Could you be mistaken for the snowboard used at the start of IceCap Zone in Sonic 3?
Anyway, decent work. I'm sure somebody will find something useful for this sheet.

yeah. I understand exactly what you mean. And, yes, I will fix it by next update. I was thinking the same thing when I noticed the grip tape. But, maybe a bit darker tone on the grey? I'll try the grey you mentioned, but I'll also try a slighty darker tone as well.

Thanks. I do know someone who wants it for a fangame, but I meant for this sheet to be used in a good creative comic or something. But, ok.

Thank you. And, yes, I was thinking of making the main trio (Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles) have a their own skating sheet. But, first, I need to finish Sonic and expieriment with him so I know how well to do the sprites and all.


Thanks for the comments. The next update should be up by a day or two. If there are any tricks that you would like me to add, or Character Special Tricks (Like Sonic's Human Dart Doulble Kickflip to Fakie Combo) just let me know and I'll do the best I can.
