Some Sonic Mania mod/edits I’ve been working on. Tentatively called “Nu Blu Sonic.” The mod overall is gonna be lots of little light edits to clean up some of the sprites, make them more appealing, or on model.
1st Image: Slight extension to spikes shape and length. Slight pose change, and shading, as well as new palette. New idle, air walk, run, and dash animations. The last 3 haven’t had his spikes altered yet. The air walk looks pretty cool in game, kind mimics his high speed falling animation from Unleashed.
2nd Image: Modifying knuckles to appear more on-model. The first 3 poses are Sonic 3K, Mania, and the new edit. The animated sprites on the right show comparison of the new sprite to the old one. I basically added a few pixels to give Knuckles’ head that point, and also increased the shadows for his eyebrow ridge.
3rd Image: Testing out different dashing animations for Sonic. I highlighted the ones I liked most (green) and least (red), with other shades being in the middle. It never really made sense to me how Sonic’s arms were posed in Sonic CD when dashing. He’s seen from a side view, so his other arm shouldn’t really be so high up. Oddly, I think it looks fine in Sonic CD, but looks really off in Mania for some reason. So I tried out some different arm poses and feet animations.
4th Image: New Tails flying animation. Left is Sonic 2, Right is Mania. Middle sprite is my custom edit. There’s something really off about the Mania tails flying animation. It really bothers me. His hands are unclear and seem to have lost the fist shape, his face is small and off model, the tail smear looks sloppy and is at a weird viewing angle, and his legs are droopy and uneven. On top of that, his white stomach fur is missing, and his body shape off — it makes it look like he’s just dangling and given up on life, and not really trying. That said, there’s a lot I do like about the sprite, such as shading, and some details on the head. So I sorta combined some aspects of both games, and redid the tail spin. I also added some detail, like the gust of his tails making his ears flap, as well as feet dangle.
