Aaron the Hybrid!

I haven't touched this character in 4 years, since I've long since left the sonic fandom. However, I never gave him a proper sendoff. Eventually I'll give him one last redesign and one last piece to put his soul to rest.

I gave myself a personal challenge with this: after drawing the sketch, I would try and complete this in under 2 hours and 30 minutes, which is how long it took me to complete the piece Aaron Finished, on my old account. I succeeded with 10 minutes to spare, and achieved a much higher quality image.
Just for comparison, here's what that piece looked like:

and here's what the last piece I had made in this "Sonic Adventure" shading style looked like:


Though I wasn't planning on it at first, the picture is nice enough that I felt like putting it on here. Don't you dare make this more popular than my original art, sonic fans. I'll cut you.
