Decided while working on refining my Mecha Sonic model to pose better, that a pose to try would be to recreate the Sonic the Hedgehog #39 cover (where Sonic was first roboticized. ). In this model update, besides refining the textures, (and taking some advice from people), I completed redid his hands to use a mesh controlled by bones (instead of primitive cube segments). Someone suggested reducing the reflection on his muzzle because the reflection was distracting. I DID attempt to do, but after looking at the results, I decided i actually liked the reflection on his muzzle, and went back to that.

The pose somewhat differs from the original cover cause, physics (and perspective).

Sonic 2D art is also mine.
