Since I couldn’t get this off my mind I’ve decided to dive deep into the abyss of character design. I’ll mostly add on to what I said in my tags in the, “What Eye Color Looks Good On Amy Rose,” voting post and elaborate.
Short History
Amy’s eye color from the start of her redesign in Sonic Adventure has always been the same as Sonic’s. A warm green that use to be apart of Amy’s classic dress. Which is a nice detail in my opinion. The pink hedgehog’s eyes has been somewhat consistent with Sonic’s from official art, 3D models, to the comics.
It almost always been that way aside from Sonic X. Where her eyes are on the cooler side then Sonic’s. Jade or Emerald to be specific. Her eyes are closer to the color of jewelry. While Sonic has a warmer grassier colored green. I like jade or emerald on Amy’s eyes as well, but I want to keep the topic consistent and less complicated then it already is.
Anyways, I think the minor inconsistencies was done for artistic vision or whenever the lighting would change in the comics. To be honest I’ve noticed color inconsistencies all the time when it comes to Sonic characters. Which isn’t a bad thing. It just shows how much variety you can have when it comes to these characters.
My Thoughts On Amy’s Eye Color
I don’t mind Amy’s eyes being the same as Sonic’s. It doesn’t look bad on her and is one of the reasons her design is as iconic as it is. Especially since it’s been a part of her for so long.
But let’s get into why I personally prefer teal.
I’m no color theory expert, but I’ll do my best. Also, not every Sonic character or cartoon character period, follows these rules. Just a good majority of them do.
Sonic: Blue is a primary color and green is a secondary color. Because green complements blue Sonic’s eyes stands out. Not to mention they symbolize his energy and love for nature.
Blaze: Purple is a secondary color and gold is a primary color. Her purple fur works amazingly with her harsh gold eyes. Symbolizing her fire powers. Also I’ve noticed a few artist add a bit of a reddish orange to her and Silvers eyes and I think they look lovely.
Amy: She’s a bit complicated. Since her red dress takes up most of her design I’ll use it as Amy’s primary color. I believe teal would be a better secondary color for Amy because it stands out a bit better and is less harsh then green. It gives Amy a softer look too.
Teal and pink is also a wonderful combination in general because they balance each other out. With pink’s warmth and energy going with the teal’s calm and coolness. Giving off a more enchanted and mystical feeling to Amy’s eyes. It perfectly compliments her personality too because she’s an energetic character with a soft and sweet nature.
Here are some characters with similar color tones:
They’re not all similar characteristically, but what most of them have in common is they’re kind natured and they’ll protect the people they care about. Just like a certain pink hedgehog.
See how the eyes are the first thing you notice?
These are around what I have in mind( jade/emerald are cooler greens so they work too):
The main reason I prefer Amy’s eyes to be teal is due to a lot of amazing fan-artist. I won’t give out names, (because there’s a bunch of them) but they are so brilliant and I appreciate what they bring to the Sonic feast of wonderful art.
I’ve seen it so much to the point when I think “Amy Rose,” I see her with teal eyes. I know it’s silly, but that’s genuinely what I feel works for her. Besides I enjoy talking about weird topics like these. It keeps the mind turning, you know.
I appreciate the official artist and 3D models as well. Even if Amy’s eyes are barely ever teal, she still looks wonderful without them because of those talented people.
Conclusion
Will Amy’s eyes ever be teal? Probably not. Does any of this matter? No.
Teal eyes or not Amy Rose is a wonderful Sonic character. I hope you had fun with me on exploring this wild world of colors and character design.
Hello how have you been, this week my dad send me a letter, he was with my godfather (knuckes)
He gift me my necklace when I was really tiny, I haven't see him since I was a little bite tiny baby
I miss my dad..
I want to travel the world just like him the only problem, mom wont let me.
She says; "You can travel the world when you move out of the house"
That will take ages, dad is not better; "you listen to your mother"
So moveing to more important topics
Meet my master, I meet her in the Astral plane.
She taught me everything I know now, when asked for her name she told me to call her Tika (but I called her Til).
Soo
Anyway, I have had some weird dreams where there are many children and a board, I was very confused and there were many people so I asked the people around me and one of them told me that ....;
WE ARE GOING TO FIGHT!
And I was very surprised, I fight with other people to win a Tournament, why did I do that (he also mentioned something that the gods chose who fight or not... or something like that). or something like that).
I went to gather information about who I would fight with and this quokka (autumm I think was her name) kindly informed me that;
I WOULD BE BATTLING AN ANDROIDMOBIAN!
IT COULDN'T GET ANY WORSE.
(but I don't know more about him I stopped listening to what I heard from him after listening to androidmobiano...)
Anyway I asked til for help to teach me how to fight I have a day to train.
I just had a thought about the booping feature on Tumblr – GIGI GRAYSON WOULD DEFINITELY BE SPAMMING THOSE BOOPS JUST TO SEE THE CUTE CAT PAWS POPPING UP ON HER SCREEN 🐾🐾🐾
So Gigi decided that Grayson needed a cat so she got him one
Grayson pretended to hate it, but secretly he adores the fluffy kitty.
He called her Alice after his grandmother and she has a special spot in his wing just for her.
Of course, tiramisu can't be left out and there are some nights both animals would be snuggled up to Grayson as he slept. And if you looked hard enough, you could see the faint smile that played on the edges of his lips.
Stuck in the past with no clear directive, Silver decides to spend some time with the Diamond Cutters and their new member. But he’s too busy being star-struck over Whisper to notice that he’s interrupting their training! Elsewhere, Sonic takes Blaze sightseeing so she can enjoy her vacation.
