Description Well, it's about time!
Something that's actually good and has the best metal textures ever.
(Told ya, Rathey)

Ahh, yes. Despite the date of this sketch going all the way back to the beginning of May, I didn't color Espio until now since he appears next chapter, which I still have no written. I'd like to yet again thank ~RWandtheGang because basically everything you see here was completely done by her and I stole it all. I comepletely love how this came out, and all the textures just made it look amazing. Unlike Tails, this didn't take me forever to figure out the colors, since there's hardly any clothing, but I did have trouble figuring out what texture looked best for his scales, and after comparing seven different ones, I settled on the one you see here, which was...actually, I forgot what it was.

So everything was all done by filter or layer affects. All the clothing and scales were done by filters. The super awesome metal effect were learned from this super awesome tutorial: [link] I only read half way through it and I got just what I wanted, only better.

So uhh...yeah, that's two of the Chaotix down. Unfortunetly, Vector and his stupid body won't work out for me, so I'll have to explain it using words in the next chapter.

Profile time!
Name: Espio
Age: 21 (For those of you who don't know, according to the Sonic Heroes instruction booklette, he was noted to be 16.)
Posistion: Espio isn't much of a member of Unheard Voices, although he should be, considering how Rouge asks him to be a spy for some missions.
Important Attire: There are a lot of shurkein stars if you've noticed, one of them he's holding and another one is strapped onto his stomach. The metal in the gloves were originally supposed to be some as well, but they came out misshapen so I'll call it metal designs.
Also, on his left arm he has a communicator, but he doesn't use it very often.
History: Despite Rouge's first impression being a bad one on the Chaotix, she has learned to respect them, and requests Espio for help on certain missions, due to his ability to become invisible. Espio is usually hired for finding out information, although has not gone on that many missions. He isn't a member of Unheard Voices, but is still with the Chaotix. Vector always forces Espio to do his missions for money in return, despite how he disagrees. Espio trys to keep a low profile, and isn't much of a talker. He usually stays isolated, however he is willing to help someone in need if there ever comes a chance.

If there's anything more, I can't think about it at the moment. I'll explain why his horn is broken in chapter four, hopefully I'll start to write it soon. So yeah, hope you guys enjoy it. Sorry for the watermark, don't exactly want to take any chances.

Espio is Sonic Team's property. They should use him more.

I changed about...hardly anything from her original design, actually xD;;

Hopefully chatper four will come out soon.
COMMENTS BEFORE FAVES. READ THE DESCRIPTION!

EDIT: Well, the details certainly look different than they do on Photoshop. Odd. The colors look darker too, that's a first.

RWandtheGang [2007-08-13 20:55:12 +0000 UTC]

Whoopee!8D Now you made him look kick-ass. Love the color choices you chose on him. Though, maybe you should credit the design of 'im to me since you pretty much used the hold thing.xD Whatever you wanna do.

I frikkin' love the metal effects on the shuriken and the text on the top-right corner. They look excellently detailed, use that tool you found more often.xD

Dude, this is just... DUDE.

I actually think the gloves look too plain xD I didn't even think about the design until I was done coloring with it. Wah, I'm stupid D:
Let me fix the credits:
Super Ninja Design is yours
I changed...what, one thing on this? xD;;

Told ya they were awesome metal affects

RWandtheGang In reply to Candy-Ice [2007-08-18 15:27:09 +0000 UTC]

They look fine. Too much change of gloves makes it look fan-charactery, if you know what I mean.
That sounds fine. Regardless of the situation, I tend to get a bit paranoid about credit.

Yus.

Candy-Ice In reply to RWandtheGang [2007-08-18 19:55:09 +0000 UTC]

Hmm, I guess that's true. I'm trying to be careful and not TOTALLY change the personalities of the characters. Despite how I disagree with SEGA I still want them to be like their original selves.
Ha ha, man, you know I'd never take full credit for something you did xD I'm not a jerk like that.

I think you're doing a fair job. Though maybe if you ever did play Sonic, make him less cheesy. Did you know in the Japanese 4Kids Sonic X, Sonic swears in English?
Why else would we be sistahs? ;D

Candy-Ice In reply to RWandtheGang [2007-08-19 02:51:20 +0000 UTC]

Well, that's good to know I made Rouge less slutly and Amy less sappy! Once I get to that fan fic, Sonic will be a whole lot more mature, that's for sure. Dude, you're talking to the person who played SA2B in Japanese for a year. He says EVERYTHING in English.

Yeah. The Sonic characters are a great concept, too bad Naka screwed himself over with it though. I did that once too. It was pretty funny.

KRABBY PATTY PLZ.

Naka's not even leading SEGA anymore, maybe that's why they're sucking. But then again it's also US SEGA's fault.

ALRIGHT!
