New concept art in Gems

Post by Adamis »

I have the GC Gems Collection and this night, I unlocked some very interesting pictures:

You know this concept pic with Sonic and a blonde girl:
Image

Well, she's back in Gems:

Image

But the best has yet to come. There is a picture showing that Eggman was NOT the main bad guy and there were no badniks, just weirds creatures (the hand makes me think of Alex Kidd)

Image

Someone should rip them from the game ;)

(Sorry if it's already known, it looked new to me)

This is fairly cathartic.

This is odd.

Wasn't the woman called Madonna or something?

Eggman seems to have been the most reworked character whilst they were creating Sonic 1. Does anyone have all of the various Eggman pics from the design process? I recall one from some video where there was a blatant Mario ripoff. I can't figure out how he could've become a BEE at one point, didn't he have something close to his final design back when they were considering him as the hero of the game?

Also, notice the enemies in the bottom picture. It looks like the winged thing eventually became Basaran, the pink thing became Yadorin and the dildo probably became that "Splats" enemy that was unused in the final game.

What is that white thing in the bottom left corner? A baseball bat or some sorta penis baddie?

A very LARGE bee.

Jessica Padkin ripped the video Crazy Penguin's talking about. It had a bunch of interesting concept art that resembles this.

There is the Eggman in pyjama picture and some sort of Sonic labels/stickers, but the blonde and the other one I posted are the most interesting.

Edit:

Speaking of concepts, these are the old ones we already know

As I understand it some of these already discovered concepts are on Gems. Maybe it'd be worth ripping them for the sake of quality?

Hum not really, maybe I told it wrong (sorry for the poor english)

On Gems, there are just the blonde girl and the "Sonic with the dildo" arts, as well the Eggman in pyjamas. I don't know if the others are in.

Why do the bad guys look like a white walking dildo and a purple walking ass?

It's part of the Agenda.

I've never seen that lethargic bimbo before. Nothing's known about her other than these shots?

Also, that bottom picture looks like it would have been the worst game ever. I do have a nostalgic streak in me, but the lame generic game-baddie style of the early nineties just sucks.

Good find, though :)

Obviously, she became Tails.

Wouldn't it be awesome if she could fly with her boobs?

Why is Madonna daydreaming of Sonic yelling with herpes on his face?

It looks like she thinking back to Sonic's reaction after she kissed him a few times. Either Sonic's still in his "girls=cooties" stage or those Sonic/Tails jokes aren't that far from the truth.

Also, I wonder how would the whole Sonic franchise(game, comics, cartoons, etc) would be like if this concept art and characters actually did become the standard.

Would she flap them around or twist them like a helicopter blade?

Yes, she sure is... Well-endowed.

That one pose of her while she's thinking of lipstick-ridden Sonic is very Jessica Rabbit.

She does seem to be able to use them in a sort-of pogo stick/space baloon fashion.

Judging by that picture of her whispering to Sonic, it seems the blue dude was originally meant to be more hedgehog-sized than he is now.

Out of curiosity, is there anyplace online where someone has ripped all the museum artwork? As much fun as it is to look at on my television, the only really useful place for it to be would be on my computer! I suppose this would be easier to do myself if I had the PS2 version instead of the Gamecube one...
