Forum:Feet

Not a topic of foot fetish, but if thats how you get your jollies then by all means.

Yep. I wanna talk about feet. I am curious on the subject because they always wear shoes. Some fans theory that they have human like feet but I don't agree. I can't remember if Sonic ever took his shoes off in the DiC cartoons but I think he did on AoSTH which gave me the idea that Sonic as well as others like him probably have 3 major toes (Hallux, Middle and Little). I also remember in Sonic X Episode 9 "Amy on the Beach", Amy in sandals! The animators estimated that Hedgehog feet were just of one big lump: Amy hiding trinket from Cream, good shot of feet and you could just make out Creams feet. Not being much for Sonic X I just thought that from all the possible random guesses to estimations the animators could consider the feet, why a lump?

Anyway I brushed this off and got on with my life and plan my Ultimate Sonic fan game idea.

Since Tikal would be in this game I decided to check some pictures of her... OMG! I can't deny anyway possible that they are some odd shoes of the same fur colour as her or lrather or such, they are Aztec Sandals revealing her merged toed feet.

Anyway I wanna know your thoughts on feets, what did you, or still pressume or believe the kind of feet they have? Just wanna know if I should swallow this or give her toes when I work on the Ultimate Sonic Project.--Mystic Monkey 03:15, October 26, 2009 (UTC)

I've heard of this one website that does a "Science of Sonic" section, and he observes the games and takes some info to make a conclusion. In his srticle about the toeless feet, he concludes that this is an adaptation that allows more traction to move feet to move that fast. Originally, toes were once used similar to claws. There's also other anatomy articles too...-- Milo the  echidna  22:02, October 30, 2009 (UTC)
 * Wheres this site please?--Mystic Monkey 03:47, October 31, 2009 (UTC)

Sonic not having toes couldn't possibly make him run faster! When you run, you're not running on your toes, just like when you're walking, you never walk on your toes (unless the floor's too hot, you're in stealth mode, or a ballerina) -- Shelly   the  Hedgehog  03:57, October 31, 2009 (UTC)

I think I found the article on Concept: Mobius. I think I believe in theory 1 that Sonic's toes are larger than that of a human. I also believe that he may have less toes. As shown in this wildlife factsheet picture he may have 3 main toes and the two side toes could either be more of novelty toes, like the Dewclaw being a useless toe on an animal. Eitherway I will draw my bare-feet Sonic characters like Tikal with 3 toes, as to take into account that despite Sonic's physique not being at all of anything on Earth, he is still considerd a native of Earth and that he is a mutation from regular bipedial hedgehogs of his Earth.--Mystic Monkey 04:07, October 31, 2009 (UTC)


 * Where confirmed?--Mystic Monkey 17:08, November 2, 2009 (UTC)

One example is Darkspine Sonic, and another is the above picture of Tikal ! Can you not SEE it? -- Shelly   the  Hedgehog  04:46, November 3, 2009 (UTC)

I remember Darkspine, but I considerd that his feet being like that were a side-effect to the transformation.--Mystic Monkey 15:59, November 3, 2009 (UTC)


 * Well, I never seen Sonic's feet but considerd them different than a "lump", even during Darkspine Sonic I believed this. I considerd that as a side-effect to the transformation to Darkspine Sonic, While he had 2 new stripes along his head, I thought that his shoes actually merged with the flesh of his feet which explains his shoe-buckle like stripes on his feet. As for Big, he wears shoes with regular belt buckes. I see they are purple like his body but I pressume they are shoes.--Mystic Monkey 16:02, November 4, 2009 (UTC)

Meh, something to grumble over when I character design. I know it be my fan game and can add toes if I want, but still theres the bother of keeping it accurate to Sonic. I can always make a poll on which people prefer.--Mystic Monkey 17:52, November 5, 2009 (UTC)

 You think Sonic characters should have toes? Yes, like regular feet with 5 toes! Yeah, but sort of bipedial/animal/cartoon like for furries. No, just a simple lump, no toes.

Through one ear and out the other, Mystic? Have you NOT heard everything we've said and seen about Sonic having NO TOES ? Can't we stay true to the games' continuity and just say he does not have any toes?! Now, take a good look at Big and tell me,  DO YOU SEE ANY TOES HERE? 

DO YOU?! -- Shelly   the  Hedgehog  02:17, November 6, 2009 (UTC)

* hits Shelly on head with hammer, knocking her out* .......What? I had to sedate her! XD--Kagi mizu -Seeya  'round ~ 02:24, November 6, 2009 (UTC)

TWO can play at that game, Kagimizu. *pulls out a baseball bat* -- Shelly   the  Hedgehog  03:35, November 6, 2009 (UTC)

Touche. However... *needle point lengthens* who would be able to reach first, I wonder.--<font color="#0000FF">Kagi <font color="#FF0000">mizu -<font color="#008000">Seeya <font color="#FFA500"> 'round ~ 04:21, November 6, 2009 (UTC)

It's not about length, it's about (as Sonic would say) speed -- Shelly   the  Hedgehog  04:22, November 6, 2009 (UTC)

Touche again, however- wait, when did this forum about the design of feet in the Sonic series turn into a fight forum?--<font color="#0000FF">Kagi <font color="#FF0000">mizu -<font color="#008000">Seeya <font color="#FFA500"> 'round ~ 04:37, November 6, 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, but you didn't say you didn't. -- Shelly   the  Hedgehog  04:47, November 6, 2009 (UTC)

Also true. Looks like someone got her mojo (or at least memory) back.--<font color="#0000FF">Kagi <font color="#FF0000">mizu -<font color="#008000">Seeya <font color="#FFA500"> 'round ~ 05:02, November 6, 2009 (UTC)

Who got their memory back? -- Shelly   the  Hedgehog  05:11, November 6, 2009 (UTC) I'm just joking with you (though I wouldn't be surprised if you missed this little tidbit)

You! Aiaiai. Really Shelly, sometimes you're the one who's incredible.--<font color="#0000FF">Kagi <font color="#FF0000">mizu -<font color="#008000">Seeya <font color="#FFA500"> 'round ~ 05:51, November 6, 2009 (UTC)

...*points to Kagi* He started it ._. -- Shelly   the  Hedgehog  03:40, November 7, 2009 (UTC)

*facepalm* I have been reading Shell. I know very well that all Sonic characters have disfigured feet in there shoes. I may stay true to Sonic lore but the poll was about matters of oppinion, especially since it's my fan game idea anyway, I could grant them toes anyway, or should I say Tikal some toes since she... well, perhaps Big too, I am only having a few characters in the game who will have visable feet and was wondering toes or not. Jeeze if I knew it would burn a flamewar I wouldn't have started this. >_<--<font color="00 FF 7F">Mystic Monkey 23:11, November 6, 2009 (UTC)

"Disfigured"? He a blue, 15 year old, anthropomorphic speedster hedgehog!! He has a TON of differences that of a human! -- Shelly   the  Hedgehog  03:40, November 7, 2009 (UTC)

Uhhh, she does have you there Mystic.--<font color="#0000FF">Kagi <font color="#FF0000">mizu -<font color="#008000">Seeya <font color="#FFA500"> 'round ~ 03:43, November 7, 2009 (UTC)

I'm talking about repeatedly criticizing people's thoughts and opinions on a forum's subject! It doesn't mean a piece of s*** how stupid or crazy the subject of the forum is; people have a right to state their opinion, period! If you don't like what people think, then either politely state your opinion, or leave the forum alone! If you can't do that, and keep it up, you know full well what I will do.--<font color="#0000FF">Kagi <font color="#FF0000">mizu -<font color="#008000">Seeya <font color="#FFA500"> 'round ~ 07:19, November 7, 2009 (UTC)

I ment disfigured lightly but have the sense people are just trolliong me now. I think I should close this discussion since it's full of epic failure.--<font color="00 FF 7F">Mystic Monkey 17:01, November 7, 2009 (UTC)
