Description

CHECK IT OUT GUYS - I DID IT :D Birthday giftart done on time - A DAY EARLY EVEN~ ...Too bad SamCyberCat's away until next week to see it |D; FIGURES, lulz. But still, I'm proud of myself for getting it done on schedule, so that's super :boogie:

So earlier last year, Sam did a whole (re)designing spree on all of her own anthro characters based off her own sort of headcanon universe High Breed samcybercat.deviantart.com/gal… (you can see them all here) and I was pretty much beside myself with joy, because it was so awesome to see what she had done with it (since she, like me, had originally had her own Sonic fanfiction headcanon, which is kind of how we met way back when) with her own original spin, plus a bunch of brand new characters and their stories all woven into those I was somewhat familiar with. I love liking friends' original stuff, it's nice to show the support they give me back :) And Sam herself has always been EXCEEDINGLY supportive of my OCs and Colour :tighthug: Which is just one of the amazing things about her ;o;

...I'm also really excited that I now have a TON of character selection to surprise her with, giftart wise 8D JUST SAYIN'. *bricked*

Anywho, so her very last (re)design of the project was a character of hers that has been around since the old days, that I too am familiar with - Phoenix samcybercat.deviantart.com/art… He used to be a somewhat Sonic styled character (still a bird/phoenix though), which I did have the opportunity of drawing back then blushbunnyc3.deviantart.com/ar… blushbunnyc3.deviantart.com/ar…

Seeing as his look was a tad bit different anatomy wise, I was a liiittle intimidated at first ^^; I was all oh boy, THIS COULD END BADLY, sob. But really, I had more trouble with getting the POSE to work xD But once I figured out what I was doing, his design was actually rather fun :lol: His beak wasn't as hard to make look right as I thought it would, and his feet/talons were actually easy, when I remembered how much I used to draw dragon feet/claws when I was younger |D; I hope his "feathery" parts look okay (was pretty much going off how Sam depicted them - sorry if they're not as long as they should be!) The red tones were fun~ My apologies if the grey/black colouring of the clothing look a bit shoddy - I dunno if the paper/pencils were too rough of texture or what ._. I tried going over them repeatedly, but eh. Hope it doesn't look like crap :C

But yes... here's to Sam, who's training hard for work on her birthday ;o; She's such a hard worker and productive person - it's very inspiring, and she deserves credit for how awesome she is! :glomp: Happy Birthday :cake: :airborne: :party: Luff and miss you Sammeh; hope you like it~ :heart::heart::heart:

Asdfghjkl Cari, thank yoooooooouuuuuu~!

This is such a lovely gift and makes me smile so much. :3 Though it's typical of us that after you worked so hard to get this uploaded on time I ended up not seeing it until a few days later because of the training course. Life doesn't make things convenient for us, does it? xD

Regardless of my lateness, I definitely do appreciate this a lot and it's such a lovely surprise to come back to. Phoenix is obviously very near and dear to me from even back in the days when we were both wee kids making up stories about our Sonic OCs, so he was a great choice to go for. Admittedly, out of all of the High Breed redesigns I did last year, his was one of the ones that I was the least happy with from my own designs - but you've really made his design work so well here. I think you fixed a lot of the errors I made, so if you don't mind I'd definitely like to use this version for a general reference of him in future, if I ever need one. Definitely the beak looks a lot more like a beak should on this picture.

And awwww, doesn't he look as happy as ever here? Definitely remembering why him and Kuger would potentially be AU buddies. =P

Thanks again for this lovely gift! ;w;
