used to draw NiGHTS a lot more as a kid, and I've doodled ristar here and there! I like the visuals of those franchises, I've just never had much of a connection to them so haven't had much drive to draw them lol

and yes, but as I've said in the past, this project of classic sonic fanarts is entirely just dependent on me being both available and in the mood to draw them. past few months been busy with other work, and right now I feel like even for personal work I want to do other stuff than these sonic fanarts lol. I'll get to it eventually, no worries

lots of resources on youtube to learn from too. check out Proko's channel

sonic-wise possibly the knuckles and babylon rogues story

uuuuh dunno, of the usual enemies I genuinely like the eggpawn a lot, especially the heroes ones. motobug's always grand too, and those ant ones from sonic cd. metal sonic's a great design, too, I guess in the wider context that might be the best design? either that or maybe g-merl...

as to bringing back past elements, it depends on what elements and what past media. maybe right now it's inherently bad just because so much of sonic and culture in general is stuck in looking back nostalgia? I'm not immune to propaganda of course and there's specific things that if brought back I'd point at and cheer though lol
