Sonic CD Contest Winner - When You Use Your Mindby ~ellavega

Fan Art / Digital Art / Drawings / Games

.........I made the top 5. ----> [link]

Alright. I'm pretty much super stoked that SEGA liked it enough because...well...criminey, I don't normally do so well with contests. I've lost just about every one I've tried entering. But I've bounced back every time and now finally I actually accomplished something. A contest for my FAVORITE Sonic game!

Sonic CD is my favorite Sonic game (as I've stated about a million times before). It has been, ever since I was a little kid of about 4 or 5 years old. It was what REALLY got me hooked on Sonic the Hedgehog. I could've done a lot of things. I thought a lot of people were going to do the Metal race, and then I toyed with the idea of doing a montage of all the special stages into one entry.

But my boyfriend told me to just go with what I was familiar with. The opening intro with Sonic racing through the plains to save Little Planet is something I've painted at least 3 times now. Why fix what isn't broken? So I took all of my favorite moments from the opening intro and put it into one picture. The rainbow splashes, the chained planet and Sonic scoping out his path to the ultimate danger zone. This picture came straight from the heart.

ENJOY! This is the BEST SONIC CD PICTURE I have ever made!!!

PS - You'll be happy to know that I used absolutely NO downloadable special effect brushes. None. No tech, no glitter, no grass -- nothing. It was all 100% my creation!

Kind of a new stepping stone for me!

EDIT:: Please note that there were 5 winners and I'm not third place! XD The pictures were just uploaded in that order.
