I animate Sonic stuff.

Just finished up a fan animation for one of Evan's IDW covers. Took about two weeks of off-and-on work. Thanks for stopping by!

@Rechi_C Woah. This looks like a screenshot from an animated show! Well done!

[Michael States @Michael_States]

@AvaTheArcticFox That went by quick! This was such a rewarding project to work on. Thanks for the opportunity!

@BrogarArts @AvaTheArcticFox @Rechi_C I appreciate the reference.

[Michael States @Michael_States]

@AvaTheArcticFox Yooooooooo! I am literally shaking right now!!! Must be so surreal to finally hold in your hands.

[Michael States @Michael_States]

@AvaTheArcticFox You were one of the first people to respond to an animation I posted of Tangle and Whisper. You encouraged me to make more animations like it. A few years later and I've done a bunch more! (A lot of them are works-in-progress to be honest. 😅)

Thanks for being so encouraging!

Was happy to wrap this one up last night!! Hope you enjoy my take on this incredible Sonic/Surge comic cover!

@incepsean @IDWPublishing @IDWSonicNews Just saw your listing on eBay. My money is now yours!

[Michael States @Michael_States]

@AvaTheArcticFox Looks like it came from a repost by Sonic Rebound. I worked with them a little bit a couple years ago. Thanks for the kind gesture, @SonicRebound!

[Michael States @Michael_States]

@Rechi_C This is on a whole other level Rechi. Amazing work! Really feels like an official post from the IDW team. We'll keep rooting for you!

[Michael States @Michael_States]

@AvaTheArcticFox Maybe clothing options? It could take up space real quick though. Water bottles, phone cases and accessories. I think a tabletop display piece like the First4Figures Sonic statues could make for a sweet convention exclusive item. Might be getting a bit too ambitious here. 😅

@AvaTheArcticFox Please accept all of my money.

[Michael States @Michael_States]

@AvaTheArcticFox @RikDraws Yoooooo. That's HUGE! Talk about a long journey. Congratulations! You've earned it. Hopefully I'll get there someday too. 😅
