Sometimes all you wanna do is visit an island and chill with your four bird friends on top of a cliff. Sonic 3D Blast Flicky Redesigns

Joining the bandwagon of prime shadow redraws to fight my art block

I wasn't really satisfied by my first mobian Flicky design, so I designed to give the first protagonist of the Sonic franchise some justice

Hey buddy 🤲🐦

Working on my AU's.

Welcome Kitsune Tails from my Folklore AU.

He's adorable and loves his flicky friends. He can't control his Super form yet, but Knuckles is working on that.

Both Shadow and Sonic have a very reasonable dislike for Seagull Flickies specifically

The reason is because they have both been victims of these thieving little bastards, and Sonic has personally watched one of these little monsters put one of it's own kind into the past tense over a chicken nugget on a weekly basis.

These creatures, unlike other Flickies, are generally regarded as menaces to society that are only outranked by actual villains like Eggman.

omdwkqomdoq They will HAUNT you if you have some food with you. They will destroy your car or house with their behavior and make SO MUCH NOISE, it feels like an earthquake when they are close. Eggman once tried to make them into robots, but lets just say that his base needed rebuilding and cleaning 💀💀💀

Propaganda:

Flicky

Now, Flicky is a character from a game called Flicky that was released in 1984, but it was popularised by also appearing as one of the small animals in Sonic the Hedgehog. In Sonic, there are a few kinds of Flickies - most notably blue, green, pink and red - each with slightly different designs. But the blue one is the most iconic and based on the bird from Flicky. Now, I totally respect if Flicky gets added to the Sonic elimination bracket, but I think it deserves a shout-out for being a bird who is the title character of a game where you play as a bird

I love when a character from an old game gets resused into a more well known franchise. Props to this one Flicky Bird!

funny birb

I love LOVE knights and the fact that its combined with a Bird using his Leek as both a shield and sword, absolutely superb you funky bird. Also his Handsome Eyebrows makes me fall in love swoon.

Rook (Concept Sheet)

Before I properly introduce ya'll to my dapper little buddy here I just wanted to give a heads up that this is the last piece of art I will be sharing with the public for the next little while and shall be making an update in the next little bit explaining why. Now without further ado I am proud to present my Sona's new Flicky companion Rook! They're a special kind of Flicky known as a Reaping that I was inspired to create after my beloved friend, @faecaptainofdreams , advised me I should take back the symbolism behind the species of bird Rook in particular is primarily based on being the Robin, specifically the Scarlet Robin native to Australia, though I did take some inspiration from the local Scissor Tail Flycatcher for their feathers, for myself which I was delighted to discover have very similar symbolic themes to my Zodiac sign, Scorpio, as well as the Giant Moths that seemed to follow me twice late last summer. Reapings are named for their uncanny ability to transform into living weapons, such as the Bident Rook is known to turn into, along with the distinct Skull/Skeleton like markings that can be found across their bodies which varies in location and design depending on the species as well as general genetics, in Rook's case this would be the Skull like spot on their forehead. More to come about Rook and their species at a later date! I have a lot of ideas and a sudden hypefixated drive to cover the Flicky race as whole due to how underrated they are so stay tuned!

Finally finished redesigning my headcanon line up of Sonic Flickies using the old Sonic 3D Blast designs as the foundation.

Each one is partially based off a real bird:

Blue flicky: parakeet Pink flicky: hummingbird Green flicky: kakapo Red flicky: woodpecker

I plan to have another post with more information in the style of a nature journal going into detail about each species of flicky and some other fun world building bits related to other sonic characters. Hope you enjoy! :)

Honestly, thinking about it, I feel like it would be even funnier if theoretical cameo Ringo was moving, but was still just a regular dog, to make the judgement of hedgehog stupidity funnier... especially if it's shadow he's judging

KFJSJFS imagine being a mobian canine of some sort and seeing just like. A regular ass dog

Like father, like son?

Once I saw that animals in that new sonic game are now Chonks, I knew what must be done!

Ah yes, my favorite Disney princess

So turns out. I hate drawing Tails More than Sonic. I just.. > 4 Cheek Tufts > 3 Chest Tufts > 2 Tails > 1 Odd head shape Add it all together and this one was a bit more frustrating than the other days.
