Sally Acorn SA Redesign -REMAKE- by LogiTeeka

Here's my 3rd take at redesigning Sally Acorn. It's more or less a combination of her two previous redesigns, but it's much closer to how I picture her character.

I also added certain features to make her blend in more; such as making her hair the same color as her fur, giving her gloves, and a squirrel tail to make her more distinguishable. I also changed her vest to a jacket in order to hide her provocative parts.

That's a pretty good redesign! Keeps that Sonic Adventure style (And games after that) while also giving her a bit of her normal self. If Sally was ever introduced in a new Sonic game by Sega, I bet Sally's design would be this.

LogiTeeka Featured By Owner Edited Oct 19, 2014 Hobbyist Traditional Artist

Thanks!

Fun fact: Sally's hairstyle in this redesign was loosely modeled after another Sally (Charlie Brown's little sister from the "Peanuts" comics).

Cheeyev Featured By Owner Oct 20, 2014

No problem, and that reference completely flew over me. You're pretty good for making a reference like that in here!

She looks better as a squirrel than as a chipmunk/squirrel hybrid.

LogiTeeka Featured By Owner Feb 10, 2014 Hobbyist Traditional Artist

My thoughts exactly.

SaveFearow Featured By Owner Sep 8, 2013 Hobbyist General Artist

Wow. This is very nice. The only change I would recommend is adding some shading and highlights, since Sonic game sprites are not all a solid color. Shorts or a skirt would probly be included in a video game design, but I think this is a good design anyway.

LogiTeeka Featured By Owner Sep 8, 2013 Hobbyist Traditional Artist

It wasn't intended to be a sprite, I made this just to show off the design. While shading adds a lot to a picture, it takes a long time to do; and an even longer time to correct.

As for pants, I didn't feel it was necessary. Sally is sorta tomboyish, and male Mobians don't tend to wear that many clothes as it is (for some reason); so her wearing less displays more of her masculine side (while at the same time, not looking too revealing). That, and it was kinda overwhelming to look at.

SaveFearow Featured By Owner Sep 9, 2013 Hobbyist General Artist

Well I think it's good art anyway, and I hope I didn't offend you. The hairstyle is my favorite part of the redesign, although the squirrel tail is also a nice touch.

LogiTeeka Featured By Owner Sep 9, 2013 Hobbyist Traditional Artist

No offence taken. I was simply explaining my reasons, as most artists do.

MDTartist83 Featured By Owner Jun 21, 2013 General Artist

Nice redesign! I like how you gave her a long tail. It makes her look more like a squirrel.

LogiTeeka Featured By Owner Jun 21, 2013 Hobbyist Traditional Artist

Thanks.

No problem.

pretty nice design !And cute drawing as well.! but the thing is, isn't sally a chipmunk?

LogiTeeka Featured By Owner May 29, 2013 Hobbyist Traditional Artist

In the SatAM/Archie series, her father is a squirrel and her mother was a chipmunk. Due to their genders, her brother Elias was born a squirrel while Sally was born a chipmunk. So basically, she's a hybrid, but mostly chipmunk.

For this redesign, I wanted to make her more unique and bring her closer to the games by incorporating elements from her Ricky heritage.

Now that looks Cool

LogiTeeka Featured By Owner Apr 28, 2013 Hobbyist Traditional Artist

Thanks!

Colonel-Eviscerator Featured By Owner Apr 28, 2013

Cute, but not very 'Sally'. Hair color and facial shape aren't all that negotiable with the character in my opinion.

LogiTeeka Featured By Owner Apr 28, 2013 Hobbyist Traditional Artist

Her look was modeled after her original SatAM design and not her modern Archie appearance. Since she's a squirrel in his redesign, I thought it also be appropriate to depict her similar to Ricky in the classic games.

UncleBen59 Featured By Owner Apr 24, 2013

I like it, the only thing i dont like is the longer tail and the hair blending in with the fur. Other than that it looks good bro

LogiTeeka Featured By Owner Apr 24, 2013 Hobbyist Traditional Artist

The squirrel tail, I thought, made her more unique. Compared to the rest of the cast, most of them hardly have bushy tails.

UncleBen59 Featured By Owner Apr 24, 2013

That is true

Lovelymidianmidna Featured By Owner Apr 6, 2013

Wow~ I gotta say, I love this design of hers

It's cool.

LogiTeeka Featured By Owner Apr 6, 2013 Hobbyist Traditional Artist

Thanks.

Thanks!

Stuffmaker185 Featured By Owner Jan 18, 2013

I'm not gonna lie to you, this looks effing awesome ! i mean you really made sally look like a Sonic character i wouldn't be suprised if sega stealed your artwork if they ever put her in a game 1

LogiTeeka Featured By Owner Jan 18, 2013 Hobbyist Traditional Artist

Yeah, that would be cool.

SonicSatamX93 Featured By Owner Jan 2, 2013 Student Writer

Interesting looking design you have here.

LogiTeeka Featured By Owner Jan 2, 2013 Hobbyist Traditional Artist

Thank you!

If Sally were to appear in the Sega games, this is how I'd re-imagine her. A good combination of her original "Ricky" design with her SatAM appearance.

SonicSatamX93 Featured By Owner Jan 3, 2013 Student Writer

You're welcome.

Eh, I particularly don't care of her Ricky design, but it's ok I guess.

Sonic808 Featured By Owner Jan 2, 2013 Hobbyist Digital Artist

Cute pic!

Stuffmaker185 Featured By Owner Jan 2, 2013

wery nice.

LogiTeeka Featured By Owner Jan 2, 2013 Hobbyist Traditional Artist

Thank you!

Stuffmaker185 Featured By Owner Jan 2, 2013

No problem.

Metal-Skotty Featured By Owner Jan 2, 2013 Hobbyist General Artist

It's hard to identify her as Sally Acorn. Neither the characteristic hair colour nor the tail are kept. Without the title and description, it could be a random fan character.

LogiTeeka Featured By Owner Jan 2, 2013 Hobbyist Traditional Artist

This design is my attempt at combining my previous two redesigns of her (her "Ricky" design and her classic SatAM appearance), so I took the features of both which made her unique and combined them with the modern Sonic look.

One detail often overlooked in the modern Uekawa design is that nearly all females have flatter faces and don't have furry cheeks. Another detail is how their head-hair remains the same color as the rest of their fur.

TheMilwaukeeProtocol Featured By Owner Jan 2, 2013 Hobbyist Traditional Artist

I knew it was Sal right away, even with that enormous tail. It's a cute addition.

LogiTeeka Featured By Owner Jan 2, 2013 Hobbyist Traditional Artist

I'm pretty sure it's the face and blue vest/boots that give it away. Had I altered those, she'd probably be unrecognizable.

And I thought the tail was nice addition too. Since Sally's a squirrel, she might as well resemble one. Looks like Tails and Ray aren't the only ones with big, bushy tails anymore.

TheMilwaukeeProtocol Featured By Owner Jan 3, 2013 Hobbyist Traditional Artist

It is pretty weird that she ended up with a deer tail!

LogiTeeka Featured By Owner Jan 3, 2013 Hobbyist Traditional Artist

I think she was redesigned with a chipmunk in mind for SatAM, which explains her mask and short tail.

TheMilwaukeeProtocol Featured By Owner Jan 3, 2013 Hobbyist Traditional Artist

Oh, I see!

Beau-Skunk Featured By Owner Jan 2, 2013

It's kinda cute, kinda reminds me of the li'l squirrels you rescue in the old Sonic games. (Whom Sally was based off of.)

LogiTeeka Featured By Owner Jan 2, 2013 Hobbyist Traditional Artist

My previous redesigns of her were variations between her original "Ricky" design and her classic SatAM appearance. For this design, I simply took the best features from my previous attempts and combined them into a single character.

As a result, she looks more unique and yet still fits the bill with the current Uekawa Sonic look.
