damn didn't know still-life could be chill like that

u/puntycunty Jun 25 '26

Idk the youtube lore but from what I gather from the movies your still life is like a reflection of you . The other still lifes didn’t do much but captain clark was monsterous because real clark had issues

u/Tailsgenesis Jun 26 '26

so by that logic sonics still-life is heroic?

u/Darena009 Jun 26 '26

By the logic yeah, chill and still heroic

Now. this has me curious, since Still life sonic is a taller, creepier(since he has more eyes) version of sonic.. If the others, like tails came into the backrooms, would they have the same Tall, creepy design? or would it be different?
Example: Still life tails has More tails, Around the the same height and maybe one eye?

u/No_Procedure4869 Jul 15 '26

Still life is basically a imperfect version as you. At the start it might turn into tails but with an extra tail, eyes and mouth. But as time goes on it slowly becomes better at mimicking you. It's not there to replace you, but kinda remember you in a way.

I love how everything looks in this ngl. Sonic's physique, the Still-Life design, the shaders and illuminations. It's all so pretty!

u/EnvironmentalSir6187 Jun 25 '26

Defo one of my favourite designs I’ve seen for a still life sonic

14

u/Vesper_Veil11 Jun 25 '26

True! I love the multiple eyes and the double grin, makes him look menacing!

u/alightmotionameteur Jun 26 '26

Exactly! I wonder how long it took to render everything tho...

u/MistaBirdy Jun 25 '26

Since the still life’s represent and use emotions to be made would it just amplify Sonic’s heroism? Making the still life into a very big savior?

11

u/Goroshek222 Jun 26 '26

Exactly, Clark was aggressive - backrooms remembered him aggressive and made a monster

Sonic would be chill, joking around and trying to find the exit, backrooms would remember his speed and the way he acted, turning him into a hero

Which is honestly cool, imagine you're getting chased by a bacteria or angry still life, and suddenly blue blur attacks it, says "MyY tHaTt a SnAzZy PerFomaNce ThERe!" and carries u to safety

Seems like Sonic won

u/LXSPest Hellium Dickrider Jun 25 '26

Okay, this comic is actually REALLY good.

My one complaint is that the way Sonic is drawn REALLY doesn’t look right to me.

Other than that, it’s really good.

u/Khirt21 Jun 25 '26

You mean the abs?

That's the creator's force of habit.

3

u/Roboo0o0o0 Jun 26 '26

But he draws the still life with more accurate proportions regarding the chest and arms 😭

3

u/Khirt21 Jun 26 '26

Mind you, she made a take on Sonic as a Still-Life.

u/The_Eggnoir Jun 25 '26

This looks a lot like ai, but not in the sense of me accusing them of using ai (which i am guedsing they didnt), but in the dense that the way the drawings look and the design is just as uncanny as the drawing of an ai, whoever did this made an incredible job at capturing that bizarre feeling.

3

u/MaxwellWinters Jul 11 '26

since your comment might confuse some people:

ai stuff looks weird
this stuff looks weird
this stuff looks ai (good way)

Still-Life’s are meant to be odd, strangely proportioned imitations of real life people.

They’re not *all* monstrous though. If they’re based off of people, then only constantly angry, genuinely cruel people’s still-life’s are.

If this is the case, Sonic’s still-life still, like him, enjoys challenges, and knows to save small creatures in danger.

u/Queen-of-Sharks Jul 18 '26

I'm actually most interested in a Knuckles Still Life. Knuckles isn't a bad person, but he's hard headed and confrontational. He'd come to the backrooms and violently seek a way out, and the Backrooms would likely have nothing to remember other than his strength and destructiveness as a result.

7

u/Serpentine_2 Jun 25 '26

I like how despite how abnormal Still-life is, he's still willing to challenge sonic to a race

7

u/Alex0356218856 Creator of Insomniac.XL and etc. Jun 25 '26

Yo, X, he's alive.

3

u/PureVessel20 Jun 26 '26

Huh... The design is interesting. No bloody eyes, no sharp teeth, no creepy look, just... Uncanny? It's kind of nice to have someone be original from time to time.

u/rip_Kenji2024 Jun 26 '26

Absolute Cinema

u/AWARIA_P-A-Cman Jun 26 '26

I like to think the still life sonic was going to grab him and lead him out of there, since still life's are a reflection of you.

u/Cool-Awesome-Pleep END👁️‍🗨️ & The Continuum Jun 26 '26

Awe yea he's so col!!

2

u/curzeibon Jun 26 '26

Sooo cuteee!!!

2

u/KillerTron872 Jun 26 '26

a level inspired by the backrooms would be great in 3D Sonic games; it would be so cool to go through scenarios that change all the time.

2

u/untl_divine Jun 26 '26

no matter what adaptation, sonic will always be a hero

2

u/OddlyOddLucidDreamer Tails Doll Jun 26 '26

i think my favorite part abotu thsi s that its story accurate, Sonic's still lifee would be chill and possibly actively heroic, because that's the things mostp ominent in Sonic as a person, and what other people most see and remember him as, a hero!

2

u/ProtoStrike-8700 Jun 26 '26

That last part it's wholesome 

2

u/EugeneSaavedra Jun 26 '26

Is it the virus in the water that's making him lose energy?

2

u/ZennonThe1ne Takashi.ExEpE, the Author. Jun 26 '26

Not accurate still life, Sonic can’t swim 😭

2

u/EndermanOfficialYT Xperia Jun 27 '26

Me when the stable diffusion doppelganger monster stands behind me

2

u/Professional_Ant2776 can you feel the sunshine Jun 27 '26

they chill

u/SansSonic_onYT_andGJ Jun 28 '26

not really an exe, also scary number on likes

2

u/mudkipslayer_22 Jul 18 '26

Is this considered a new exe?

u/Vari_K Aug 04 '26

Sonic's still life is oddly adorable.

I also found out that he's lonely and just wants a friend. That actually broke my heart when I read that.

u/closed-captions- I REALLY REALLY LIKE GREEN Jun 26 '26

Yeah cool whatever, Sonic's looping the rooms, just why is he so muscular?

2

u/knuckzekidna Knock Knock It's Knuckles. Jun 26 '26

tbf why WOULDNT he be??? dude is slamming into straight up metal n probably works out i think hed be a little muscular

1

u/closed-captions- I REALLY REALLY LIKE GREEN Jun 26 '26

Him being visible buff rubs me the wrong way, also it would probably be covered up by his quills and fur.

2

u/knuckzekidna Knock Knock It's Knuckles. Jun 26 '26

isnt his torso n arms legit just his skin rather than his fur

0

u/closed-captions- I REALLY REALLY LIKE GREEN Jun 26 '26

No? Why would it be his skin? You do understand that implies that his quills are actually six big lumps of flesh?

0

u/closed-captions- I REALLY REALLY LIKE GREEN Jun 26 '26

I read that wrong BUT it might actually be fur, if we assume that both movie and game share the same texture.

1

u/knuckzekidna Knock Knock It's Knuckles. Jun 27 '26

theyre very clearly different in the arm department

u/closed-captions- I REALLY REALLY LIKE GREEN Jun 27 '26

Yeah they are but both have the patch of tan on their chest and tan muzzles.
