Stardust Speed Demon: The Training
Stardust Speed Demon: The Training of Metal Sonic 4K Re-render
This "Sonic Movie 3 trailer" style music video fan art is the culmination of about 7 months of sleepless asset creation; Overloading the brain on totally unknown software, and a truckload of trial and error. **Remember to right click the play button and hit loop to jam out on the track.
This is a Sonic Movie style fan art re-imagining of how Robotnik (Jim Carrey) trained Metal Sonic to be one of Sonic's most formidable enemies. This is a re-render up to 4K to update the trash quality of the original video's visuals. Still far from perfect, especially the audio. I am first and foremost a professional 3D sculpt, modeling, and texture (+shader) artist and by no means am I anything close to an animator or filmmaker or audio tech. There are broken things everywhere, the pacing is off places and yes I was too worn out to deal with every small miss. Prior to starting this project I had never seriously taken an effort to try and actually rig let alone animate a character. Lots of mistakes and tons of valuable lessons were learned. Thanks for watching, please like and subscribing for more later!
Technical details:
As a solo artist, in the interest of time I used every resource possible to quickly create the assets I could not manage to make the time to do entirely from scratch. 7 months of modeling and kit bashing a few premade/bought assets to create the world and characters. My career path is character focused so much of the bespoke hand-made work centered around the characters and vehicles while kit bashing bought assets primarily to quickly make the parts of the environment which I had not already made on my own since the previously popular 3.3Million views Stardust Savior video project.
Assets created from scratch:
• Stardust Speedway Present Track and Exterior (A re-skin )
• Robotnik’s Flight Suit and fat version Jim Carrey head sculpt (scan head data was used)
• Prototype Metal Sonic (updated from last project)
• Hyper Metal Sonic (the blue variant)
• Robotnik’s Egg Pod/ Egg Mobile
Assets used from external sources:
Robotnik’s Speed Gun – customized and reskinned version of SchrisArt’s Temperature checker on SketchFab:

Egg Pod Quartz Fuel model – recreated from a quarts rock scan asset off SketchFab:

Robotnik’s Soldering Iron – Made using Oleg Ushenok – Hard Surface Mechanical Set from Art Station:

Robotanica Republic Labs – Lab interior created using the follow assets edited -
Stone Mason’s Daz Environment:

All Characters were rigged and skinned using Reallusion Character Creator 3. Animations made with iClone 8 (or direct edits in Unreal).
Facial beard and groom assets were hand edited from CC4 hair pack stuff tied to their facial rig.
Of the animations used in the video half of them or less were sourced or started from iClone store assets, AccuRig library, or entirely retargeted Mixamo inside unreal. Everything else from motions and poses that did not exist or were not perfect to use as is were either made manually in iClone or manually FK edited directly in Unreal's animation viewer itself – no control rigs, did not know how to make one.
Blueprint nodes were used to animate Metal Sonics 2D eyes look and blink cycle.
Music:
Taking the original North American version Stardust Speedway Present level sound track from Sonic CD (NA OST), I used LMMS software to build up a new beat and toss in some other instruments. The goal was to take a classic Michael Jackson song and retrofit it into an official Sonic game music track to play up the real lore surrounding Jackson’s music influencing much of the music from the 90s era Sonic franchise games. Taking inspiration from remixes in the style of Yuzo Koshiro (a.k.a. @Yuzoboy) I tried my best to chop up, pitch change and stretch the MJ Classic “Speed Demon” (Epic Records) to fit into a catchy loop. If you listen close you will hear hints of another theme song included from a popular 90’s era Robot action film you may know very well. I recommend right clicking over the play button and setting it to loop.
