I was thinking about what different Sonic characters' names could be in sign a couple of months ago, since so many people headcanon Sonic knowing sign language, and I ended up making animations for a few!! Here's what I came up with for Sonic!! :D
mp4 version & description for it under the cut!!
[ID:
A video of Sonic The Hedgehog viewed from the waist-up against a green background. Sonic is drawn in a simplistic style, though with tanner patches of skin on his muzzle, ears, stomach, and arms compared to his typical design, and he has curved scars on his chest.
In the video, Sonic is signing his name, comprised of the words ‘fast’ and ‘hedgehog’ in BSL. He signs ‘fast’ by bouncing his index fingers off of each other—his right finger coming down as his left goes up—with the other fingers and thumb curled in. “fast” is written in dark green on the left side of the background as he signs this.
The word in the background changes to “Hedgehog” as he signs the second part. His raised right hand opens up so that his fingers and thumb are all splayed, while the lowered left hand curls into a fist. The left arm moves horizontal in front of his chest, and the splayed right hand lowers to run the heel of the palm across the top of the forearm, to symbolise the spines of a hedgehog. Lifting his right elbow up to move the palm across the other arm obscures the “Hedgehog” lettering slightly.
Sonic's head moves as he signs, spines bouncing up and down and head tilting to the left. While he’s signing, he mouths his name, the first syllable ‘So’ being mouthed during the ‘fast’ sign, and the second syllable ‘nic’ being mouthed during the ‘hedgehog’ sign.
On the right side of the video, next to Sonic’s head, is the artist’s signature—the silhouette of a bongo with the letters BD written inside.
digging out my eah content part 2: be the cupid and monsters reunion you want to see in the world
ID: a set of four digital drawings of c.a. cupid and blondie lockes from ever after high. one: blondie whispers in cupid’s ear, her speech bubbles containing monster high’s skullette and a bat, while cupid listens, wide-eyed. two: a scribbly cupid kicks down a door, tearfully exclaiming, “ghouls holy fuck” in mimicry of the phineas and ferb “mom holy fuck” meme. three: blondie winks and throws a peace sign at the camera in the foreground, while, off-screen frankie, cupid and draculaura reunite by calling out each other’s names. raven, also off-screen, wonders, “wait, didn’t headmaster grimm lock the door?” four: the screen iris outs on blondie, still winking, like the endcard to a cartoon.
okay i know you probably have enough drawing ideas for giant k but i just had this idea invade me.
