Never Stop Running

I woke up Friday morning and thought to myself "Aw man... tomorrow's Sonic's birthday and I can't think of anything to draw to celebrate it. I don't think I have enough time..." And right after that, an idea popped into my head. This was the scene I came up with. Sonic running through the desert. You're probably wondering "Why a desert?" I don't know, to tell you the truth, hahah. When Sonic runs through sand or water, he creates a boost effect behind him, and I wanted to try that. The desert can be a beautiful background too. I thought it'd really make him pop, being that his fur color is complementary to the orange atmosphere.

I wanted to create a meaning behind this picture. I love Sonic, I enjoy playing the games, and I look forward to the future. I don't want him to ever stop running. I want him to live an endless path, like an endless desert.

Happy Birthday, Sonic I'll be your age in a few months!
