IT CAME

IT CAME!!

Thank you SonicandShadowzine!!!! I’ve been so excited the last few years and finally it came today!! It’s such a wonderful piece of art and I’m so thrilled to add it to my collection!!! @sonicshadowzine you guys made my day 🥹

The stickers are so cuteeeee!!!!

Also thrilling I got one of the playing cards I hoped for !! Black Arms Shadow my beloved,, thanks so much!!!!

Words: 500 Rating: T Summary:

The Black Arm did not understand. The blue hedgehog, their so-called champion, had been defeated; his body, his mind, his pride, should have been broken. And yet.

Notes: Written in 2022 for Live & Learn (@sonicshadowzine)! I was honored to tackle a Shadow the Hedgehog 05-AU alongside my fellow contributor Alex (@spacecolonie)—thank you for your help all throughout this project!

here is my piece for the Live & Learn (@sonicshadowzine) charity zine - a Sonic POV poem featuring an absolutely beautiful illustration by @rayactive-factory!

full text is below the cut, or read on AO3 for some longer postmortem comments - both versions have fancy spacing (albeit not as nice as ray's)!

My piece that I made for the @sonicshadowzine hard to believe this was a while ago. But I had the joy of drawing more Pirates!

I had a really fun time with this!

I can finally share this! my comic I did for @sonicshadowzine

This comic is close to my heart. this boss fight means a lot to me, and it's the big anchor that keeps me thinking about these two. this moment is so pivotal. this is the first time shadow truly understands sonic and himself. this is where he falls for sonic, and this is where he dies. and he's accepting of it, because he knows maria's world is in better hands with him, the true ultimate life form. Sonic will forever carry this moment in his heart. he'll forever know he's responsible for shadow's death, because he wasnt FAST enough, couldnt reach far enough. he couldn't save the guy right under his nose. it haunts him forever i think.

and then the guy comes back. he didn't actually die. but he forgot EVERYTHING..... that's when it gets very interesting. despite it all, fate has it that they keep butting heads. that shadow keeps developing the same strong feelings regardless of the change in circumstance, regardless of the fact everyone tries to manipulate him. because sonic is the ultimate life form and shadow can't do anything but look up to him.

i love them and this aspect of them so much i made a whole ass MUSIC VIDEO for the big bang just abt this topic (the fanfic that it's based on is so good too please read it.)

this comic is directly connected with the comic made by @jiiyawns ! please check them out as well!

Got the go ahead to post these, I drew this for the @sonicshadowzine

You can tell it's a bit old by now but I still really like what I did with it, maybe I'll redo it someday to compare haha

comic i did for the @sonicshadowzine ..... this file dates back to 2022 and i would do So many things so differently (even these images are slightly different from how the printed copy looks from a mix of cmyk/printing funsies and the passage of time letting me look at it and want to change it) but in the end it doesn't change the fact that i find the transition of heroes to shth shadow hilarious

a semi-part 2 to this comic by @superemeralds! look at it and go insane
