"What do you know?  I am the guardian of the Sol Emeralds....  It is a fate that forces me to live with my curse, my flames....  Because of my powers, I have always been alone....  It's also why I must do this alone!  It is my responsibility!""I admire your fortitude, but....  Carrying the entire world on your shoulders?"

"I...I must save the Sol Emeralds.  I must....""A bit overzealous, aren't we?  ...  Hey, don't bite off more than you can chew!  And be yourself.  Don't need to do everything on your own." - Sonic Rush

     Yay! La la la la

  I finally finished this like I wanted to after letting it slide.  I've drawn some stuff relating to Rush Adventure, but not so much Sonic Rush.  While it doesn't top my favorites, Sonic Unleashed and Secret Rings, I still really enjoyed it and its storyline. c:  This time I wanted to do something based moreso on the story and character development, specifically Sonic and Blaze's interactions involving his attempts to reach out to her.

     Drawing Blaze in that sitting position was difficult, as well as figuring out how in the world to draw Sonic's hand placed on her shoulder.  Sonic characters have large hands and barely any shoulders! Noes!

  I really wanted to be able to show Blaze's insecurity of trusting anyone for help despite her strength, while showing Sonic's openness as he tries to talk to her.  I think I pulled it off!  I think the perspective of the Sol Emeralds might be pretty off, though. Sweating a little...

Something I need to work on, but overall I'm happy with this!
