The Blue & His Miss (Uekawa/Adventure & Battle)

Art gift for my gf

1996-1997 is the prelude to Sonic's Adventure Era.
Yuji Uekawa made his debut as artist for Sonic 3D Blast and Sonic Jam, and character designer for Sonic R, having created Metal Knuckles (no he didn't make Tails Doll unfortunately, I bet he wishes he had that claim to fame tho)

If you like the visual of Sonic with a basketball, SEGA Sammy has a baseball club whose mascot Rooter was illustrated by Yuji Uekawa.

So I’ve replicated several Sonic artstyles, like the Uekawa artstyle, Japanese, the story book artstyle and the Sumi art style, but what other styles would you like me to try recreate?!
Feel free to leave some suggestions!!

Favourite artist for the games would be Yuji Uekawa, for comics it’s hands down Richard Elson. As for my favourite art from the series, it’s this new year piece from the official Twitter account!

It’s probably based on this piece of art by Yuji Uekawa

I wanted to try the Uekawa style again but add my own flair to it
Also I decided on the name of the Porcupine OC

You recreated a piece of art from Sonic Shuffle, which has some of the BEST ARTWORK of Uekawa in the Adventure Era?!?!?!

WHY DON’T YOU MISS FOR GOD’S SAKES?!?!?!

After doing comparisons between recent Sonic Channel art by Uekawa-san (‘19~‘22) and Sonic Pict art by Karasuno-san, I’m leaning towards it being the work of Yui Karasuno. Without going into heavy detail, a very easy indicator is the way each artist draws Tails and Amy’s bangs.

His feet are like blobs, which looks better than giving him actual toes.

Yuji Uekawa was the first to implement this

The only image of these three that I really have any problems with is the Blaze image, it's not quite what she would look like in Uekawa's style.

And this comes back to references. Don't be afraid to use them, as long as you're not blatantly copying or tracing them, you're good.

How do you guys think I’m doing with the Uekawa/Sonic channel style so far?

If It’s by Uekawa, then use Jam/Saturn Sonic.

If in general, Ohshima and Totoya work:

I never thought I’d see the day where they’d stop using the Shadow 05~current CG model as the mold for all their merchandise. Really wish they’d take another crack at replicating Uekawa’s style like the late 90s~early 2000s stuff. This statue is so sick.

IT REALLY IS. You can really tell the difference between Uekawa’s style and the style of the current models:
