This is for my 200th deviation on deviantart. I decided to make a picture of a scrapped idea I had back in 2011, when I was mostly doing sprite comics.

If you remember a character of mine, Sophie who is the younger sister of Mark and Nikki, she was a derpy and ditzy character. lol However at first, I was gonna make her more of a intelligent and innocent character who gets bossed around by Mark a lot. My first comic with her was going to be called "Puppy Love" that involves a small dog (female) that got lost in the streets and being chased by a dog catcher. Sophie finds the dog and adopts her. When Mark finds out, the dog acts as a bodyguard for Sophie to protect her against Mark, so Mark would receive ALOT of painful bites on the butt (that and Mark has a huge hatred of dogs). That is, until Mark discovers that the dog is a VERY rare breed and is worth a lot of money. Of course being the greedy bastard he is, Mark would try to catch the dog and sell it to the pound for cash. So it would be the FIRST comic where Mark would be an antagonist for once. lol

So why did I scrap it? Well, I didn't know what to do with it in sprite comic form. It was hard to edit sprites of the dog to make it look the way I want it to. That and I felt Sophie's personality was a little too bland so I wanted to make it more unique, hence the personality she has now. However, I might bring this idea back, I just don't know how to. Who knows? And since it was in 2011, it was gonna be with their Sonic forms but I decided to use their original forms here since that's what I'm doing now.
