An illustration of Sonic the Hedgehog. Sonic is flying backward through the air, a look of panic on his face, and his arms and legs sticking out. Rings are flying everywhere. An iPod with white earbuds is flying out from him too, the earbuds still connected to his ears. The scene is drawn with Sonic and the rings all in silhouette, with only vague outlines here and there, like the old iPod commercials from the 2000's. The background is a plain blue with a very slight glow, similar to Sonic's normal color.

Today's Februdoodle illustration is something I was thinking about earlier today: an unexpected situation drawn in the style of the old iPod commercials from the 2000's.

Initially, I thought it might be a cool idea to draw a person doing something deranged, like burying a body or something, late in the evening I had this idea and knew it would be more fun to draw, so I ran with it. I spent a lot of time learning to draw Sonic the Hedgehog back when we got a Sega Genesis for Christmas one year, so it was nice to find some of that old muscle memory and flex it for just a moment.

This was created in Procreate with an iPad Pro and Apple Pencil, using the Procreate Pencil brush for sketching, the Syrup brush for linework, the Studio Pen brush for the more uniform linework, and the Soft air brush for some very faint shading in the background.

If you'd like to see how I drew this one, you can watch the time-lapse below:
