![[SFM] Classic Tinkering Remastered
Updated this with different textures, vastly improved lighting and a couple different models, I hope the difference is overall an improvement! Original description as follows:
Been a while since Ive had one of these out, I really enjoy the concept of the modern characters interacting with their younger selves, a lot of which we didnt get to see in Sonic Generations which I was a bit bummed out by, I thought there was a lot of missed potential. Anyway, hope you enjoy this one ^^

![[SFM] Sonic: Hedgehogs Deception trailer
The new Sonic game is taking a whole different kind of edge apparently XD
A friend and I were tossing ideas around on what Sonic would be like under different developers, and we eventually made our way to Naughty Dog, and this little idea came to be. It was originally just going to be a render but Sasso Studios suggested it be better as a video, so here it is with him voicing the more serious Sonic of this world. This is just a funny little thing to do while the Unifier is being worked on, this wont be a series, probably.

![[SFM] The Boost Counter
Short animation for a combat move I thought of based on the little info we have on this so-called Sonic Rangers project. I dont think combat would be much of an emphasis in the final game, but if we had a Sonic title that had snappy and flashy action like this in a wide world I think it could be pretty fun!

![[SFM] Star Wars The Rogue Unleashed
Im quite excited for Rogue One, so I just had to do something for its release. After combing through quite a few different ideas, I decided to go a non-sonic approach and celebrate Rogue One with another story that also tried to fill in the gap between episodes 3 and 4. The Force Unleashed was quite the game for me, did you ever get the chance to play it and its sequel? And if so, what were your thoughts?

![[SFM] Blaze in: Treasure Turmoil
Its taken quite some time but I finally finished up this animation featuring everyones favorite fire kitty! Many factors contributed to this idea including the old comics depicting how Blaze crosses dimensions with a fiery entrance, and just a thought that she could honestly take anything shed need for back home with her and seemingly have an unlimited supply XD Running a kingdom is hard work and expensive, but Blaze is a princess of action! Thanks for your patience for this video and I hope you enjoy!

![[SFM] Fionas Saga Follow Up ||You Decide||
Voting has ended thank you for your participation!
So sorry that its been a good while since word of this little video was mentioned but thanks to all of your support and popular demand, this will indeed be continued as a series. Before moving forward though, I thought itd be nice to have you all vote on where you want this story to go, the person you vote on will largely shape how Fiona sees and learns about this world. Why only Amy or Knuckles? Because in the previous episode Sonic mentioned he might bring these two xD
You might notice the map is different, that is because it was unfortunately deleted from the workshop and I did not back it up ^^;
