Basic Profile - Shadow

This is a very simple profile I made at the beginning of the school year - I've just been super-lazy about submitting it online . It's a little dated, considering my current style of drawing Shadow (that I have yet to demonstrate here as I have piles of unsubmitted sketch pages askljagh), but I still like it ^^

Classic: Classic Shadow is not very different in design from regular (Modern) Shadow aside from a few things:
1 - He's shorter. MUCH shorter. Modern is (physically) about 20 something years old, in which case Classic would be around 15. Y'know, like Classic Sonic, except fifty-five years before Green Hill.
2 - His clothing is slightly simpler in design - his hoverskates are not upgraded yet, so they maintain the basic single front vent, and he's not wearing the red tab things on his socks and gloves.
3 - His EYES. I know Classics typically have black eyes, but part of the allure of Shadow the Anti-Hero are his unnerving-yet-awesome RED EYES. I wanted to keep that. Although, in this profile, they look a bit wonky... can't quite place it...
4 - He has NOT mastered Chaos completely. While Modern's breaking records, Younger Shadow would still be in training. Chaos Spear is his latent ability, but he still needs work on Chaos Control and Chaos Blast (he doesn't have anything to be angry at yet).

Modern: He's sexy, Chaos d%$@ it. He's taller, his quills are longer, his eyes are now the SWEET red irises with pupils, and he's got upgraded hoverskates - if you look closely, you can see that there is an extra Chaos engine exhaust vent below the first one on the front panel of the skate. Modern Shadow's mastered Chaos Blast, Chaos Control, and has gained Super Form after the whole ARK-crashing fiasco. He's also a master of hand-to-hand combat and a firearms specialist. Don't f@#$ with him when he's holding a pistol... or at all, for that matter.

Chao: This was mostly just for fun I was pondering a possible design for a Shadow Chao, and sketched this out. My style has changed slightly since I drew this - the feet are too bulky here with no supporting structure, but you have to admit it looks cute ^^

You may have noticed, but Shadow Chao looks PO'd. He should be - I started fiddling with the idea that that Shadow Chao is Shadow actually turned into a Chao. How this happened, I don't know. Regardless, he has been severely handicapped by the transformation - Shadow Chao lost his hoverskates and any ability to hold, much less fire, a weapon of any kind. His physical age has been reduced to 3 years old, which still makes for an experienced adult Chao. He has lost nearly all control over Chaos power, except for Chaos Spindash (automatically turns into a Chaos Spear when spindashing) and Emerald Form (changes shape when given a Chaos Emerald - into what? Use your imagination ^^).

If you have any comments, please share - I'd love to hear from the peanut gallery.
