'Organic' Metal Sonic Design By TerraTerraCotta Watch

Something I did as a bit of a brain teaser, plus I wanted to draw some sonic stuff.



I've seen a lot of fan interpretations of a Mobian, "Organic" Metal Sonic and I've never found any that really struck me (except for one). Either the designs were too plain, or too over the top, so I wanted to try giving a crack at it. Using Sonic, Shadow, and of course the original Metal Sonic as a basis for the design.

I really feel a lot of interpretations lack due leaving out the bits that make Metal Sonic, well, Metal Sonic. That being his aspects of his robotic parts, which I feel could be translated into armor-like accessories for the organic version (including shoulder guard-things, somehow he just feels incomplete without them). I also did a black-sclera version, because why not?



Side Note/Disclaimer for my thoughts on Metal Sonic "becoming" Organic:

Now while I see quite a bit of fanworks do this, I don't really see Metal Sonic becoming "organic" as being very possible or even necessary? It's not like he's a robotizied Mobian, He's just a robot.

I would think that it would only be semi-possible if it were, say, like holographic or digital form created in a digital world (like the one Nicole inhabits), nanonites (sp?), or things like that which would augment his appearance. That being said I don't see why he'd ever need to do that. Though as a silly little fanon thing, it's harmless and it's fun to think about.



I wouldn't be surprised if one day I get a message saying "But Terra! They DID make Metal Sonic organic in the new [Game/Comic/TV Show/etc]!!"

Oh well...
