@intersonality I thought at first he was talking about Penders from the thumbnail but yes he did talk about modern Sonic Stock renders which I do agree most of them have looked shit since like colors, also thought was impressive not to mention had awful Penders draws him :).
@JordanWilliams_Link7702 Nah bro you lyin through your teeth. Early 2001 to 2008 were the best looks. If the models were higher poly count and had better renders you'd see how good the older models look. Plus modern sonic and his short quill havin self look goofy.
@@Thatonedrater this is criminal. They give the ambitious masterpieces that are Knuckles Unleashed and Knuckles The Echidna (2006) 4.5/10 but they give mid like that perfect scores?
Tbh we really need a redoing of all the sonic models. Still keep them looking like the modern character designs, but with a load of tweaks to make them look good, or at least new looking
The longer pointy muzzle was like the only discernible way you might be able to say confidently that he could be an echidna… not that he ever really looked like one to begin with
@@larryriehl9463 Yeah but if you think about it too much, it looks really weird and thats the only thing that i think makes him look weird. He looks fine otherwise.
@@filoz2005Oh no way dude Nintendo fans are CONSTANTLY obsessed with character renders, I saw people bitching that everyone on the Mario Wonder cover got a new render but Yoshi's using an older one- which still looks fucking fine mind you
i don’t think it’s awful but it’s definitely not perfect. i with they’d make his snout a little longer but i like the narrow eyes and smooth quill to muzzle transition
Random question, but are you Northern Irish, by chance? The reason I ask is the way you pronounced the word 'now,' which is extremely similar to the way we pronounce it in the Smoky Mountains of North Carolina where I'm from. We descend almost entirely from Lowland Scots Presbyterians who moved to Northern Ireland around 1608 and settled American Appalachia beginning in the eaely 1700s.
honestly yeah, now that you mention it he does look pretty weird now, in his new stock model he looks like he's always "scared", or just... has an uncertain look on his face
I would have never noticed these differences until you pointed them out. And now I dont care again (But he did look real good in the movie i cant lie on that)
Idk, I think of his modern design as a good change, his forehead in Adventure was bugging me for quite some time. But let's accept the truth, Boom design was his peak, hands down.
I pointed this out years ago. This is the first time I’m hearing someone else bring it up. This new look started with Sonic Heroes. But I gotta say his modern renders do look better than the Sonic Heroes days. His fists have also gotten a bit too big. lol
The picture and thumbnail is so cursed, not only does Knuckles look completely weird, but Sonic looks like he's dying or something, being hooked up to a machine and all...
i kinda like the flatter head, i assume they designed it that way so his dreads would look sleeker while gliding, but i havent given the chance to compare his sonic adventure gliding models with his newer ones
i think boom knuckles looks so much better because he actually has muscles and i feel like it fits his character! ofc i would still remove the weird bandage wraps that all the boom characters have.
Dude, I think that actually bothers me more than Sonic’s fucked up quills, hell it looks like he’s been bonked!! This is the catch of being an artist small shit like this bothers the life outta me.
I thought you were talking about the way Penders draws Knuckles-like characters. But apparently you're talking about the regular modern renders, which look perfectly fine - if anything, the classic drawings and Adventure era renders look really weird to me.
I disagree, I think he looks phenomenal. When I picture the perfect Knuckles in my head (purely visually, not just in terms of writing and stuff) IDW, Convergence and Frontiers Knuckles take the cake and by a far cry too, I think he's never looked better. My real issue is with Amy. She's perfect in things like Prime and IDW but something felt off about her in Frontiers and these new renders, like the entire cast's hands are XL and her hands are XXL.
It's cause he doesn't chuckle
Unlike Sonic, he dont chuckle.
He would rather look weird and flex his muscles.
He's hard as nails, it aint hard to tell.
@@Johnny300- He breakin em down wether they solid or fraile
Knuckles don’t chuckle
He doesn't chuckle anymore
He was able to say all that without even needing to mention the way Ken Penders draws him.
@intersonality I thought at first he was talking about Penders from the thumbnail but yes he did talk about modern Sonic Stock renders which I do agree most of them have looked shit since like colors, also thought was impressive not to mention had awful Penders draws him :).
@@DrawRichaThanYouSonThe thumbnail is from DeviantArt and it's haunted me for years
@DrawRichaThanYouSon imagine being this slow 😂 your obviously a troll bait cuz colors and up is the best the characters have looked, get taste werido

@lowbrassboy8994 troll more that low polly sonic is ugly and his quills are better not big and ugly
AND THEY REMOVED HIS ICONIC SHARP SHARK TEETH
Thankfully at least Silver gets to keep them
They get their teeth back in IDW at least. Now I can live knowing Sonic has fangs
Fun fact: echidnas don't actually have teeth
@@alceratops6853 wait REALLY!?
@@jennypagan6120 Yes, it's true. They're basically spiny false anteaters that lay eggs. I'm not kidding
SEGA themselves are confused on whether Knuckles has a mono-eye like Sonic or two eyes usually hidden by a permanent angry brow for sure 😂
I prefer when his eyes are separated, he looks off with a mono-eye
When does he have a monoeye?
@@t.dmattocks6119 they gave him one sometimes in the Archie comics
@@Je-S1001 Ah I see. I never read Archie Sonic so that one missed me.
until the release of the Boom games, i had never noticed Knuckles had seperate eyes, i always thought they were mono, like Sonic's
They need to bring back his iconic pointy nose. He looks so off without it.
he's an echidna and they have beaks. he looks liek a weird hedgehog without the longer snout
Same😢
as an artist i cant help but ALWAYS notice this. drawing him the way i like and then seeing official renders feels like they bashed his skull in 😭
Just like how they made him stupid for the 2010s
Guess you can say knuckles had a rough transition into the 2010s
"Knuckles was never good."
Knuckles pocket adventure is a 10/10
Rougher than the rest of them
@@sonicdoesnotlikeillinois7813unlike Sonic he doesn’t chuckle
@@Thatonedrater this is criminal. They give the ambitious masterpieces that are Knuckles Unleashed and Knuckles The Echidna (2006) 4.5/10 but they give mid like that perfect scores?
He looks like a car
Potato with peanut butter
Waffle.
Like a PT cruiser car
I like how his shoes are like a Lego
they're probably supposed to be hot rod engines or something
and he has the nike logo
I think he looks fine tbh
I know right
This guy is terminally online, Sonic Twitter loves to find the tiniest shit to bitch about for two days and then find something else to whine over
@@aortaplatinumthen why’d you watch? If you want him to stop saying this stuff then don’t give him the attention.
@@justanormalguy563 How could someone not be intrigued by that video title
@@aortaplatinumHow dare someone share an opinion on the internet that isn't your own

he looks fine
Now wtf
He got hit on the head by a brick.
where him brain go 🥺
No
He just a fluffy boy in the movie he looks so huggable
Looks fine to me other than his mouth is NEVER centred
None of the Sonic characters' mouths are centered except for Tails and Amy.
@@larryriehl9463 Yeah but if you think about it too much, it looks really weird and thats the only thing that i think makes him look weird. He looks fine otherwise.
@@eseehcrosicco Knuckles and Shadow are some of my favorite characters. Shadow gives off a dark aura and Knuckles strangely brings out gangsta energy.
He'd rather flex his muscles
i used to think the top of his shoes were lego’s😭
I have never in my 17 years of life seen a complain about knuckles design, classic or modern.
His head is more aerodynamic so he can glide more easily
Seems too petty to me. He honestly looks fine
Heres one fun fact that I learned yesterday
Knuckles head design inspiration is actually the yautjas from the predator series
Unpopular opinion: large Knuckles from boom is almost perfect for a guy like him
DONT TALK ABOUT MY BOY KNUCKLES LIKE THAT
Cant be a sonic fan without complaining on the most smallest details
Nit all sonic fans complaining on nost snalles details or anything at all
Small details = what makes the character visually appealing and work from angles and perspectives
@@filoz2005Oh no way dude Nintendo fans are CONSTANTLY obsessed with character renders, I saw people bitching that everyone on the Mario Wonder cover got a new render but Yoshi's using an older one- which still looks fucking fine mind you
@@aortaplatinumyea I saw a video about that. I thought he was joking
@@Nic_2751small detail = his forehead. If he looks like knuckles then it's fine.
He looks fine, whats is bro yapping about?
They took knuckle head to a whole new level
They took away his snoot 😢
Not his snoot 😭
"Oh yes! I love sega's Adventure the Hedgehog!"
Knuckles looks like a dog version came from zoo
Knuckles be like - is somebody gonna match my freak 😢
Ls Mark? Is this a secret channel or have I just not sence it mentioned or this guy sounds exactly like him.
This is LS Mark’s friend, Splash Dash.
It’s his good pal Splash Dash, they really do sound so similar, huh?
That picture for sonic on a hospital bed while knuckles is crying tho
i don’t think it’s awful but it’s definitely not perfect. i with they’d make his snout a little longer but i like the narrow eyes and smooth quill to muzzle transition

Not to mention 06 knuckles
I never thought knuckles would be ever classified as "fluffy" but the movie gave me a strong slap on my face!!
Himbo Knuckles fixed this
Adventure Knuckles: Before drugs
Current Knuckles: After Drugs
Don't do drugs
He got the Ratchet treatment
The aussie switch up had me confused
Plus the pointy snout makes him look a smidge bit more like an echidna
Kudos for making this video and taking zero cheap shots at my boy, Boom Knuckles
Thought this was LS Marks at first.
Bro just roasted him😂
I love these games…and even I’m stepping in to say.
“It’s not that Deep Bro.”
I can’t believe they flattened his one polygon
To be fair being a movie budget with a new realistic style is certainly a glowup
I would have never noticed these differences until you pointed them out. And now I dont care again (But he did look real good in the movie i cant lie on that)
SplashDash is secretly one of Dr. Eggman’s many Alternative UA-cam Channels!
"Why does Knuckles look like a freak?"
Well that entire picture is freaky--oh you mean his actual design.
Damn.that shit really hurt bruh
I like like people complain when most of time people don't even notice this until this video lol
wish we get an adventure 3 and have the sa2 models but with a bit more detail
Don't even get started on the version from Sonic R
Knuckles is fine.
Change my mind.
Atleast he doesn't look like real echidnas
I thought this was gonna be a Ken Penders video
The real question is why he have lego on his shoes
I'm not saying I disagree, but after beeing in the SonicTheHedgejerk subreddit, this is pretty funny.
Don't talk about my boi knuckles
Idk, I think of his modern design as a good change, his forehead in Adventure was bugging me for quite some time.
But let's accept the truth, Boom design was his peak, hands down.
i wish his sharp teeth were still a thing, at least most people still draw him with sharp teeth through fanart
SONIC HOW DO I JUJU ON THAT BEAT
My honest reaction:
Wait people thought he looks freaky?
An aerodynamic truck is crazy 😅
"SONIC, I TOLD YOU NOT TO JUJU ON THAT BEAT"
He got bred into being like a pug so many times
THEY TOOK HIS FOREHEAD HE CANT FLEX HIS MUSCLES HE CAN ONLY JUST CHUCKLE
I pointed this out years ago.
This is the first time I’m hearing someone else bring it up.
This new look started with Sonic Heroes.
But I gotta say his modern renders do look better than the Sonic Heroes days.
His fists have also gotten a bit too big. lol

He looks fine.
"Not from a design standpoint" also him complaining his modern design
Dude, I think that actually bothers me more than Sonic’s fucked up quills, hell it looks like he’s been bonked!! This is the catch of being an artist small shit like this bothers the life outta me.
When I saw his walking animation in superstars I was so surprised why he looks like an AI 💀
can't be a sonic fan without knitting picking shit that doesn't matter
So I was looking at echidnas and found that some quils are different colors witch reminds me a lot of the movie power glow thing
Bro it’s the flat head for me
I thought you were talking about the way Penders draws Knuckles-like characters. But apparently you're talking about the regular modern renders, which look perfectly fine - if anything, the classic drawings and Adventure era renders look really weird to me.
I knew something was kind off about knuckles design but I couldn’t put my finger on it 😂
Big forehead giant nose knuckles was adorable..
Knuckles dosnt look weird wdym
The word "now" has ONE syllable, sir. Not FIVE.
It's his accent, stupid...
Guess he really not gonna chuckle this time
Not bro dissing on knuckles 💀🙏
He’s dissing on his model not Kncukles himself lol
I never really noticed it but damn movie Knuckles really does look good
You sound like LS Mark. Hmmm interesting… 🤔
What is with the first image/the thumbnail??
Real petty not even bad tiny nitpicks
Also, with the current model, Knuckles' hands and feet are absolutely ginormous when they really shouldn't be.
Fr,they leave no space for his mouth on his feece.
I get the feeling this creator would really like boom knuckles.
I’m just trying to figure out where his sharp teeth went
Bros is the Movie Predator
To cover he must wear the Jamaican pharmacist hat
I disagree, I think he looks phenomenal. When I picture the perfect Knuckles in my head (purely visually, not just in terms of writing and stuff) IDW, Convergence and Frontiers Knuckles take the cake and by a far cry too, I think he's never looked better.

Dose anyone think this guy sound like LS mark
He looks the same
