so I was on Ponibooru earlier and looking at stuff and the sonic-related stuff was generally lackluster or unpopular and I was like “I could do better than that!” and then I realized I had a good point and then I tried. But I can’t tell if he looks Sue-ish or punk raver. Eh. |

Why is he a unicorn? Sonic never (in the games I played) had any special abilities other than running really fast--and that's more of an Earth Pony trait. |

Some games show that Sonic has some form of powers, like aerokinesis without superspeed, or a healing factor. Plus, his Homing Attack is like a very limited self-applied form of telekinesis.
Also, so if I ever get around to drawing it, Tails could be a pegasus and Knuckles could be an earth pony. |

Knuckles wouldn't just be an Earth Pony--he'd be a draft Earth Pony (Macintosh) due to his strength.
Given the games I've played, anyways. |
| frostedWarlock #388437 11 months ago |
Well obviously. But he'd still be an Earth Pony. As an allusion to the Sonic Heroes trio sets, I made Sonic a unicorn so Tails could be a pegasus and Knuckles could be an earth pony. |

Knuckles an earth pony? but he flies in the Sonic the Hedgehog movie, and glides in just about every game. *trollface*
Anywho, I would not have guessed this pony to be sonic the hedgehog. #1. why the earring? #2. Red hair? wouldnt yellow hair be more appropriate since he turns yellow when super sonic. Or is red hair something from the comics? Only things I see in common here is that he's blue, and he has that smug face that he uses to troll all his foes with. Cutiemark confuses me. I'm sure those are 2 rings, but the thing in the middle has me baffled. Only thing I've seen like that is one of the minigames in sonic the hedgehog 3. But why that'd be his cutiemark I wouldn't know. |

Alright, lemme address this one by one.
Knuckles' ability to glide is literally because he styles his hair to act like a kite. I'm not even joking. His earring and red hair with off-white stripes are a reference to his shoes, which are in turn a staple of Sonic's design, since Sonic was born on Christmas Island and always keeps a Santa-colored something on him at all times to symbolize this. Therefore, red hair, white stripes, gold buckle. The Cutie Mark is one of Sonic's more obscure, yet popular moves, the Super Peelout, where Sonic's feet move so fast in a certain way, it looks like a mobius strip. Even if you don't get the reference, it still looks like a Figure-8 racetrack. |

Also, when he's moving at top-speed, ponySonic (who I am now dubbing Spindash Speedway)'s hair will look like a shortened version of his quills. |

Hm. Normally, I'm no fan of Sonic crossovers with anything. I don't particularly like the character to start with.
That said, I didn't initially identify this one as Sonic...and I like both the design and deliberately oversaturated color scheme. |

The Mobius is a nice allusion to one or two facets of Sonic. :j |
