From the thumbnail the *Spikey Spinning Sonic* in a lightning wire it looked so stunning. The movie is totally worth it if you haven't watched it already.

Personally, I think the fluorescent orange spike on Knuckles add a bit of really interesting color variation that helps the model pop! 💥 An honor to be a new Patron on such a cool build ☆

[@thediamondrellik]

Bru such a good movie. They definitely did some stuff differnt In The trailers than In the movie. I can't believe Shadow is goin to be in the next movie!!!! That post credits scene was so cool

[@Pistazien]

How do you make your clay so malleable? Mine always breaks apart so easily

[@ghoultooth]

Work it in your hands as much as possible, the warmer it is- the softer it will typically be.

[@azuroslazuli6948]

Yeah, always warm the clay first. Or just use Sculpey. I understand it works like ceramic clay.

[@georgiee00]

this has gotta be one of your best yet!! the creativity of using wire for electricity AND the uv paint... dude !!

[@samanthadean1083]

YES!!! I was hoping you would make something from Sonic 2 as soon as I saw the trailers!!! ❤️❤️❤️😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️

[@ClemonChutney]

This looks sooooooo good! Well done the spikes and lightning look incredible. Love how you always do things a little challenging and show your trial and error process. So much more interesting and relatable than going something 'safe'. Mum and I always watch when you bring out a new vid and we learn heaps of good little tricks. Also it's great to see your confidence grow. Thanks so much!

[@Miniflageolle]

Pleeeeease do the animals from avatar the last airbender!! Like Appa, Momo, platypus bear, sabertooth moose lion/cub!!! Pleeease!!!!

[@roubs_gvg]

really cool features as always, you do ! The only thing that I find kinda weird is knuckles : especially the mouth. I'm not saying it to frustrate you or anything (my opinion, others might say it's cool or else idk) but it feels kinda weird, but it's a good work man and keep on doing this !

[@dparnell7607]

Only difference id make would be Knuckles looks a little naked without shinny quills going all the way down his back body, but other then that it looks like an unstoppable force meeting an immovable object, keep up the amazing work!

[@debbralehrman5957]

WOW! that Fluorescent paint with the UV did amazingly great. Love the look!

[@Gudsur]

This is simply amazing! I've been a Sonic and Knuckles fan since the expansion cartridge on the Sega Genesis. I'll never forget getting it for Christmas, and obsessing with the game for years. This is just straight badass!

[@trueshadowlover63]

those extra last pieces really turned on the slay button for this sculpture

[@deaconaligood]

Now what truly made this amazing was the fact he spelt Knuckles as Nukles and Sonic as Sanic

[@peekaloo12]

There's a part of me that mourns the fact that we didn't get to see Adam sculpt a proper Sonic. But then again, seeing a goofy glowy spike ball is also pretty satisfying

[@DaMoniable]

That Knuckles head is damn good. You managed to keep the aesthetic in tact while still having your own flare. Am impressed :D

[@SkipperBoy]

[@Cricket-mo4vr]

The florescent paints look so dope!!

[@louisvictor3473]

This was so really dope! But what if, we gave this man unlimited virtual clay in a fully realized VR sculpting software, with a a tactile feedback VR glove, and printed the resulted of that? Can you imagine Adam without limitation on how much clay he has, or being able to bake and "unbake" parts? Is that too much power?

[@CamelRage279]

That fluoro paint really makes this scene pop - nice one!

[@MechaBones]

Aaaaaa I love this. The sonic ball makes me so stupidly happy

[@danielaxelsson8881]

It would be so cool to see all your creations together or like a whole little world of "tiny nerdy things". I mean you don't have to combine like the hobbit with zelda but maybe all of ur zelda things together or something. Or it would be cool if u like a series where u make a ton of things that do all fit together. Super cool stuff love the vids
