As someone who often draws sonic oc fanart and has their own ocs, think about where they’d fit in the universe! Do they have a fan made arc they’re apart of? Or if they’re based in the game universe do they play a big part in the game? Do they have any preexisting connections to current characters? These things can heavily influence a design! In all honesty I don’t think stereotypical backgrounds are too bad as long as you write it right! I have a few lab experiment ocs and nobody has ever told me that they’re cringe or anything so don’t be afraid to lean into tropes, just (as you said) don’t make them OP.

I felt very called out for the hedgehog thing because My first oc was basically a Shadow clone. Except I didn't know that actual Shadow clones existed at the point His name was Ring and he instead of the chaos emeralds he used the world rings(Hence the name) I haven't thought of him in years, like i made him when i was ...7? 9? Which is why he his very... Simple Nowadays I just make Mecha OCs, There is no limit with them... Organic limit

I picked wolf..there's not a lot of names wolves in sonic...there's whisper in idw...I think gadget the character from forces was a wolf...but there is not a lot... I forgot the wolf tribe and the princess' name from Early Archie...my oc's name is Sparky...a gray wolf with a rather hidden background..while he trusts the freedom fighters...he does not head witb sonic shadow and knuckles..due to their brash "rush in without a plan" thinking..my oc gets along best with tails rouge (to a small degree) and of course gadget...my oc prefers long range supporting and recon... basically a sniper with a lazer wispen.(Not sure if that's how the weapon is spell)

He is a spotless Jaguar, Dark orange fur, white Muzzle and inside of ear lobes, gray gloves, one normal, other fingerless, cyan wrist cuffs, cuffs create energy weapons, black boots, cyan cuffs on ankles. Oh! And brown eyes. Powers: I haven't given him any yet. Skills: Swordsman, good with a bow, better with kicks then punches. Gender: Male, pronouns He, Them. And now, personality: He's fun loving with a big heart, is a normal person, buuut, he does occasionally go on adventures. And that's my oc! Updates in comments when I can!

I insist on deviating as much from the Modern Sonic as is comfortable. If you're trying to make your character stand out (you as in anyone designing an OC rn), why not explore how much you're willing to stretch or break these molds while you're at it? Tails has a more rectangular head (lol or like a thumb if you remove his ears) and he's a very popular character so the head shape doesn't have to stay a circle! The roundness adds to the adorableness but there's more than one way to be round. It's really all about what you're willing to do differently, so look at your favorite Sonic characters and determine what you like the most about their designs. And that way you can examine what you actually like compared to what you're doing just to make your OC fit in. Sonic characters are inspired by cartoon aesthetics so pick an animal that you love, including a hedgehog if you really love hedgehogs, and play around with incorporating more of the actual animal. Look at other cartoon animals you love the design of and seeing if that can help you stylize your own in a way that fits. Also, consider making a chubby/fat OC (like Big) or make them tall (like Vector or Storm the Albatross.) Or give them some actual muscle regardless of gender; the noodle limbs can be cute but it's not 100% necessary. Maybe make a nonbinary character or make a character who's intentionally an adult or a little kid since a lot of them are teens or nebulous ages. Also, consider making a robot if you enjoy that! Robots are fun. If you want to get really wild and go hard mode, design a human OC (Sonic Unleashed had the most cartoon aesthetics for them but you can go with any human styles.) Or make a new villain and really go wild with it! Try out a lot of different shapes and see what sticks! Also, I do like the suggestion for living vicariously through your OC by giving them cool clothes (online catalog images are great references if they show the clothes being worn edit: same for shoes since some catalogs will show them from different angles) but there's always room for tacky, uncool OCs too lol. Regarding power levels, I always refer people to "Don't Worry Guys, Everything Isn't a Mary Sue" by Coelasquid. It's always relevant and it helps for other aspects of character creation beyond just the visual design. Sorry, this isn't me knocking the video at all, Mr. Evan Lionheart. I enjoyed the art, the tips about the color palette are great (that's actually what got me to click on the thumbnail, this new OC's color palette) but I'm suggesting these things with genuine sincerity. I've got some AoStH and Archie inspired characters and they're a bit more diverse or at least I'm trying to make them that way (even if one of them accidentally ended up with an Animal Crossing name because I didn't realize at the time but I refuse to rename my squirrel now lol.)
@Roark78710 күн бұрын
Here's a rule if you're making a villain OC. In all regards, NO MATTER WHAT, your OC CANNOT, SHALL NOT AND SHOULD NEVER: USURP, OUT DO, OUTSMART or EVER DEFEAT EGGMAN! Lesser villains you can potentially get away with, but NEVER the series main antagonist! That title is his for a reason and any villain OC that disrespects that is AUTOMATICALLY CRINGE.

I found that the ideal way (perhaps too good) to give flavor and interesting seeds for further character, backstory, and even design for your character is to combine them with whatever big interest you think can benefit. Indecisive on how to make my gloomy fox boy beyond "donut steel" material, it sparked on me to turn him into a Great War veteran, given my great interest (to say it lightly) on the lattter-Victorian/WW1/interwar periods. This gave a rather logical reasoning behind his grey attitudes and aggressive demeanor, not to mention that him being a darker shade of red logically led him to being an analog to the Red Baron in his time, further explaining some of his tendencies while also leaving some room for non-historical nuggets to tune him here and there given he's an analog in a parallel world, Sonic's world. This also raises the interesting dilemma: "How can this hopelessly outdated and now outmached ace of an age bygone cope with his new enviornment?" Of course, with an interest like mine while searching for explanations, it easily spiraled off into also detailing his homeland and war, eventually even affecting Tails indirectly, but I say it goes to show how much the synergy between your interests and your OC can power up.

I've actually made a few in the past - and some redesigns of already existing characters. My two big ones are Pearl the Platypus and Max the Kangaroo (the latter pretty much being a cowboy). The Sonic art style is a lot of fun to work with, and if you're trying to experiment with character art or just starting I definitely see a lot of potential in it. I do a lot of other things for characters too - I've made some D&D stylized stuff as well. But I enjoy a lot of different designs. It's cool to see other people dedicated to making stuff like this too. Also, sick OCs by the way! I like the designs you showed off.

Zeeno the robot he is a prototype of metal sonic but after some failed battery power he gave up snd thow him away but thanks to all the chaos energy around every where he is alive but in a power reserve mode he is half as fast as metal sonic in power reserve mode 75% as fast in base and in combat mode he is as fast in combat mode he has electrokinesis he uses this to make energy weapons he has energy blasters on his left are the right arm is still broke because of the amount of time he was off line he can hover like 2 feet off the ground now I don't know if he can use chaos control he might but idk he has a maximum overdrive mode he becomes 5 times faster then neo metal sonic and Aerokinesis but it is extremely Draining so it's more like a last resort if you have any other power ideas just replay and everyone is free to use this character
