Ohhhh you won me over the MOMENT you showed me that peelout. Some of the animations feel a tad TOO smooth, can't say I love how the quills move and there's a bit too much squash, but still a solid look.
Whoever made this is clearly a talented animator, there are a lot of great animation principles on display here. I really love how the creator of the mod took a very unique and "cool" looking approach to the animations rather than purely adapting and reanimating the frontiers ones (that stomp is amazing), but for future updates I really hope they tone down the extent to which sonic is animated. Whenever he's idling and everything is moving independent of him it makes it feel like the different parts of his body are separate organisms and its a little uncanny. I think the concept behind it is a great idea though, to decrease how static he is. Maybe it'd feel better if less things moved and the quills moved in the same direction rather than it looking like they're jiggling? Particularly the idle animations (around the eyes) and the slow grinding ones I found noticeable. That peel-out is genuinely INCREDIBLE though. I understand, however, that the Sonic Frontiers character animator probably isn't the most amazing animator ever though so I'm sure there's compromises that the animator had to make on their full vision.
I'm trying to use every bone possible to squeaze out every bit of expression! And I have the quills moving individually to make it feel more like hair rather than quills.
@@sweetlitlbumblb I can tell !! Don't take anything I said as discouragement, I'm really excited to see the future updates for your animations. There's some great talent on display here :)
@adreeeandanothere510I know right. I think his spines should move a little bit when the wind is blowing not when it's moving like crazy. Don't listen to that itzdcx kid. He just a little ass kid
His hair moving like he’s suspended in some kind of liquid is 👎🏾 and his melee being kicks only is so smooth brained: I’ve seen too many people say Sonic realistically wouldn’t even rely on fist fighting because he runs so much so his legs are his strongest but imagine applying that logic to every other speedster character.
I mean, it’s common sense tbh. I think Sonic should use his fists too, but his legs should be used in a fight as well. If not, that’s more wasted potential than Megumi.
Eh, as neat as some of the unique animations for this model are, I am NOT a fan of how "overly animated" the head is. Some have already brought up the spines/quills being a little *too* loose in how much they move/flap in the wind, but the way his nose bobs up & down all willy-nilly, along with how much his brows move too, it just ends up making Sonic look more like a hollow rubber ragdoll than an actual solid creature with bones & muscles. Yes, some squash & stretch on a cartoony character like Sonic is needed to add a bit of extra appeal to how he moves, but this is kind of overdoing it in some places, not gonna lie.
While the spine movement definitely needs some work, I feel like some of the people in these comments are acting like how Sonic fans act whenever the shade of blue on Sonic’s fur is just slightly off about it, especially that “dropped as a baby” comment.
Oh, no, I edited the normal Frontiers model to have flatter kicks, bigger cuffs, and a more expressive face, along with some new textures and some other adjustments.
I mess with the animations. But the amount of quill movement… is pretty unnecessary. They kind of doing too much with that. Like I get what they’re going for, but he’s too jiggly
@@sweetlitlbumblb oh yeah, I get what you were gone for. You still did a good job. And the animations were great. I just think sometimes he’s overly jiggly

Duely noted.
The Bounce in Sonic’s Idle Animation reminds me of his Idle Animation is in Sonic Battle
That was the intention! XD
HEY! THAT'S MY MOD!
Edit!: The mod is still a WIP, I plan on doing a full overhaul on ALL of the animations!
mine NOW😈
@@sweetlitlbumblb Great! I think the idle could be improved.
Sonic frontiers: GAMER edition
@@sweetlitlbumblb you got a good thing going on just tone it down a bit please
Leak Footage of Sonic Frontiers 2
Kinda accurate considering kishimoto said he will change the model
I like the idea of the quills, but maybe reduce the movement of them on the idle a bit.

Reminds me a lot of the 06 model must’ve been a massive inspiration
I actually had inspiration for the quills and main body from 06. The quill movement is ALSO inspired by the physical qualities given to it by 06.
Nice wish sega had given Sonic team more time to do this
what the FUCK is up with the spines on the idle 🙏🙏🙏💀💀😭😭
It does not need to do allat🤢
@@adreeeandanothere510yes it does you're not true Sonic fan if you think otherwise
lol
@itzdcx7991 "you're not a true Sonic fan if" 🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓 12yo ahh argument
@adreeeandanothere510I know right. I think his spines should move a little bit when the wind is blowing not when it's moving like crazy. Don't listen to that itzdcx kid. He just a little ass kid
The spine movement could honestly use some work, but otherwise this is perfectly fine.
It looks smooth, and love the style!

He uses kicks for the starters, but he will do a lot more punching when you reach phantom rush!
This model looks so much better than his other model
Making his air boost an intense spinning animation is such a Cool Idea!! I love it so much 🤩🤩
The spines moving like that is so unnecessary and nasty it somehow makes me miss the staleness of forces.
dude shut up 💀🤦🏽♂️ it's realistic spine physics, it's how it should be just like in Sonic 06, if there's wind blowing it should move... not be stiff
@@itzdcx7991what type of wind makes your hair move like tentacles, that sh looks nasty af hell naw
@@itzdcx7991Don't tell him to shut up. Let everyone have their own opinion.
@@VanJhosi know right
@@itzdcx7991bro he can have his own opinion, it’s the internet we’re all allowed to share what we think. Don’t tell him to shut up.
A cool new model of Sonic.
Why is no one talking about that wind-up run?? That was awesome??!!?!?!
Eh, as neat as some of the unique animations for this model are, I am NOT a fan of how "overly animated" the head is.

Yes, some squash & stretch on a cartoony character like Sonic is needed to add a bit of extra appeal to how he moves, but this is kind of overdoing it in some places, not gonna lie.
Yeah, still working on making the nose work better. But most of the time with his nose jiggle you barely notice.
I love the idea of animated quills here but think it could be better
duely noted
the spines have gone rogue, they are their own entity now.
the model and animations give me heavy adventure vibes!
I tried my best.
What’s up with fans making Sonic look like he got dropped on his head when he was a baby.
squash and stretch :)
i think the nose animation is a bit too much. but the rest looks so good in frontiers! it fits with the weather too!
Nice Video
While the spine movement definitely needs some work, I feel like some of the people in these comments are acting like how Sonic fans act whenever the shade of blue on Sonic’s fur is just slightly off about it, especially that “dropped as a baby” comment.
But other than that, pretty good model all things considered.
I may be wrong here, but the model reminds me of Sonic omens…
Oh, no, I edited the normal Frontiers model to have flatter kicks, bigger cuffs, and a more expressive face, along with some new textures and some other adjustments.
Its giving 06 x adventure vibes
It seems to or something but this model reminds Sonic's model from Dream team.
Yeah, I took some inspiration of the color of sonic from dream team.
quills move WAY to much in idle other than that this is cool ngl
I think the movement of the quills goes a bit too overkill
Is he really in? And how did you play as him?
Yeah, I'm not a fan of his quills looking like they're made of jelly
The model is great but these animations feel somehow worse than base Frontiers
WHERE CAN I PLAY SONIC PROJECT 06
Nobody in this comment section is = "use your imagination"
I mess with the animations. But the amount of quill movement… is pretty unnecessary. They kind of doing too much with that. Like I get what they’re going for, but he’s too jiggly
I just wanted to make his quills feel like they're actually... y'know.... quills? Rather than rocks attached to his head.
@@sweetlitlbumblb oh yeah, I get what you were gone for. You still did a good job. And the animations were great. I just think sometimes he’s overly jiggly
@@sweetlitlbumblbPersonally, I always imagined Sonic’s quills being like hair and hair doesn’t move like how you animated his quills
And just like that I’m bouta reinstall
sonic breath of the mediocre
I don’t care about anything else that idle boost animation is HEAT🗣️🔥🔥🔥
also is this some kind of map revamp cuz there is a lot of rails I’m not complaining tho
