My way of doing it is to Never pick hedgehog, and Avoid self inserting.

I have so many Sonic OCs that I could literally replace every sonic character in SA2

Thanks for the tutorial. I finally was able to create my first OC.

"You pathetic excuse of a lifeform" That's an insult Shadow would throw at someone.

This is probably a sign I should make one wow I should get back into art

Yeah dude, get back into it before shadow generations come out

I do wish that Sega could dive a bit more into the OC idea. They could easily do that for a mini game like SonicDash, where all the characters share sonic powers. That way they wouldn’t have to animate a bunch of different powers and just give us a character creator.

another fun thing to think about your character is what type (speed, fly, power) of character are they? if they’re a more unique animal, is there animal from a country or region that has any fun beliefs on the animal? could that be added into their backstory or physical design?

Ah yes. OC. My favorite past time. I got to say i agree with you on the hedgehog part. All these hedgehogs running around and half of them just look like re colors and powers/abilities are important at least to me because i usually start woth the powers. I have one that I'm working on and over thinking many things but he feels fine.

I took my OC & made it into a plush!

@@evanlionheartgranted, I did make a green hedgehog one, but I immediately made up for it by making his friend characters a red wolf and a yellow deer ai that used to be a bunny… wait

The result came out great. But i HIGHLY disagree on prohibiting people making a hedgehog. There is nothing wrong in creating a hedgehog, the problem is that they are over-used, making them difficult to stand out or NOT to look similar to other characters like Sonic, Shadow and Silver (The three that people inspire to make their hedgehog most of the time) So fellas, don't listen to him on that (Sorry man xD), but beware, making an hedgehog look different from the ones you know is hard, so i suggest to do your best to stand out. Overall, i like the video, great job, left a like and liked the character you came up to. Does he has a name? If he dosen't, i don't know why but i named him Mirth. Cheers from Brazil.

@@evanlionheart I know, but i'm still being careful because you never know when you gonna start a fight. And i understand why you don't want people making hedgehogs since It IS overused. At the same time, everyone is free to do what they want. Thanks for understanding, i don't like creating drama 🤝

i have two hedgehog ocs, both of them are babies. one was created to mimic project shadow but he got fucked up and is literally just. normal, average, *no powers* the other is an elder god born through a virgin pregnancy due to a shitpost roleplay the rest of them are either prehistoric animals, small cutesy animals (i.e. sheep, bunny) who are batshit insane, dnd (i love my peryton grandpa), or a mary river turtle i could go on for hours abt my ocs fr

Heh, screw animals Gizoid OC gang rise up :D

Im in the process of making an OC and I decided to give them a super form and let them use chaos control HOWEVER they get nowhere near the real emeralds and only have the fake emeralds after Sonic n his friends discarded them. He can’t time travel but can slow down time and teleport HOWEVER it takes a lot of energy and he can only do it every so often and after he does it he has to take a break from using it. I gave him a super form however he doesn’t know he can and he’s SIGNIFICANTLY weaker than Super Sonic, only like 1/4 of his power, any suggestions?

Honestly, I'm surprised how well thought out the power scaling is. The only thing I could suggest is giving them their own ability to use like Sega does. Something they'll be recognizable for. Idk if that made sense
