thank you, Takashi Iizuka, Yuji Uekawa, Akinori Nishiyama, Shun Yashiro, and the rest of sonic team for bringing such a charming character to the sonic universe, for creating one of my personal fav sonic characters
happy 25th birthday, big the cat.

there's this old pretty obscure japanese slot machine game called "SONIC LIVE" & it features big as sonic & tails cheer him on for a good catch. you can actually catch various things in this, including an eggman doll and a boot. bad catches cause big to tumble over
months ago i was playing the sa2 conversion mod as big, got to final rush and as soon as big was grinding on the rails i imagined a scenario like this whipped it up super quick and didnt post it until now LOL
love this man btw...unironically. *kith him on the forehead*
dont usually post updated ver of art but i posted this on my tumblr so i may as well post the most updated ver of my mafia don big art since i thought the lighting in the last one was a bit lacking
its rly funny that a lot of ppls first exposure to smalls is beginning to be through newts art & their first impression is him looking sexy but then you look at the actual comic he comes from and he looks like this. pathetic loser bully cat ❤️

idk why it dawned on me but the conductor is the second large anthro char to have the same eyetype as the glitched SA1 big that's made like 2 appearances in idw
MUGEN big either looks liek he just got taking the fattest shit in the toilet or damn near a different character altogether somehow with how ass the sprite is
some of the comments getting mad abt a drawover of this impact font ass meme claiming newt is body shaming skinny ppl when they're skinny themselves. maybe grow a thicker skin before getting upset at smth not meant to be taken so seriously
do you ever think abt how big just. isn't very afraid of spirits and even talks with them. and how it's a weirdly consistent(?) thing of his whenever he's confronted with one
at long last... found a higher quality scan of the art that i think was first shown in the 2024 calendar, im presuming this scan comes from the cookbook(?)
i've edited it to not be stretched since it was when i found it
ok listen say what you want since i haven't read archie personally but the design discrepancy between him and the felidae still drive me crazy like whats big doing next to these furry worldbuilding lookin characters from a different series. like big get outta there!
thoughts on big in winter jam: at least he speaks more than a typical prime episode and he looks cute. his inclusion here is slightly above prime but thats abt it
nervous abt bigs inclusion in the winter jam idw story cuz its like the first idw story he's actually been included in that isnt for the sake of cameo outside of his 2020 annual and could possibly be the only time he gets included in an idw story for a good while
i think the only valid reason that sonic 4 should ever be canon is just for eggman to fuck with this random kid from SA1 bc little planet is in shambles in episode 2 LMAO
hate that they just havent had big breakdance since secret rings bring it back you fucking cowards he looked so gay doing it and i fucking loved that for him
hearing big so distraught like this in sonic x caught me off guard cuz you never usually hear such extreme emotion coming out of him and i think this is the only time he rly cries in the franchise too?? ive yet to see him do so outside of this moment and esp in this fashion
typical sonic fan reaction : omg cream content woo!!!
me: *PUSHES CREAM OUT OF THE WAY* IM HERE TO SEE MY MAN I NEED HIM I WONT HIM HE IS SO FIND AND COOL I WANT TO BE THERE WHEN HE HAS NO ONE ELSE TO FISH WITH AND THEN
i was jst using the flycast emulator & i went online out of curiousity and accidentally opened this menu up & fucking CRIED at this i felt so lightheadef
redid/expanded another barnyard gba dialogue portrait with the subject this time being bud!
first image is og, second image is redone and the third bonus image is him with a white mohawk based off of a beta trailer for the bluetongue version
the way ive drawn big with longer hair before & one of bigs concept designs features him with long hair even DROOPING over the shoulders just like how i do it sometimes 😭😭😭
sry the demons were screaming at me forgive me for my sin (desmushed his face + fixed the coloring error w/ some other personal adjustments) no tongue is left, tongue out is middle and og is right
weird extended/miscolored part of big's muzzle in sonic comics. died 1999 reborn 2024 (for legal reasons i am not fucking harping on the artists/or colorists it happens)
anyone who thinks this joke design is better than the real one is objectively wrong btw. this was meant to be cursed and highlight how his design doesn't work when you design him with the generic default sonic base
the fact that the news stand lady in SA1 bizarrely assumes big came over to ask if he could buy some fishing bait only for him to correct her and say he uses lures (something he already has) instead is so funny
big being treated as dumb or oblivious to absolutely everything for (rightfully) being confused from getting roped into situations that are beyond his control and has no knowledge of or why it's happening as a result always feels like such a major misread of his character
