Getting the microphone hand right while keeping Sonic’s confident raised-fist pose balanced is the main challenge in this tutorial, and it is worth working through because this version of Sonic from the Friday Night Funkin’ roster has a posture that is easy to throw off if the arms are not proportioned early. The step-by-step guide to how to draw Sonic Rhythm Rush walks through the full figure across 31 steps ending in clean line art.
Building the Rhythm Rush Pose Step by Step
The tutorial runs 31 steps from the first rough shapes to the final line art pass. Because the drawing is uncolored, the work stays focused entirely on line confidence and proportions. The asymmetry of the pose, one fist raised and the other hand holding a mic, means the torso needs to be locked in early or the arms will sit awkwardly. Most of the detail work clusters in the head and hands, so expect to slow down there.

If you enjoy this kind of character sketch, there are a few other Monika from FNF Hotline 024 and Hellbeats Spirit tutorials on the site that cover similarly expressive FNF character poses. The Boyfriend Doll walkthrough is also worth a look if you want practice with compact full-body proportions.
