Mad Bodgin’ Mage (Amiibo SMASH) Log: Super Sonic

In this Log: Sonic…



…goes SUPER!!!



I used to be a HUGE fan of the Blue Blur as a kid, lots of nostalgia here.

This mod was done for a friend, and was initially going to be much simpler in its execution. The original request was just to paint him up so he was Super Sonic. Once I primed Sonic, I sent my friend some in-progress shots:



He commented that the black looked great, and now was wondering if maybe a Shadow mod would be better:



This got me thinking, and I pitched an idea to him, warning him that this would basically ruin the Amiibo if it didn’t turn out.

I figured if we were going to make Super Sonic, we might as well make it worthwhile.

He said go for it, so Sonic lost his head:



I didn’t take many photos of this part, but I cut off the spines on either side of his head, and rearranged them…

…then filled the gaps with Greenstuff.



Afterward, I re-primed Sonic:



Then, like pony-boy, it was time to go gold:

And with a little assembly, he is complete…



…and ready to SMASH! 😀

A shot of the vanilla model, and the super:



Gotta go fast!



Stay gold, hedgehog-boy!
