I periodically fall down a rabbit hole of digging through web archives looking for ancient fanart. Today I was browsing the Team Artail art archive (my reuploaded DL link) and ended up looking up old users, websites, jumping through old Sonic webrings... the usual. Here's some of my favorite Espio arts from around 2005 ~ 2008 I found:

Okay, I mainly made this entire post for this image alone, lmao. MY NEW FAVORITE!!! I love it. I can't believe I never noticed it before, despite going to the Knuckles Chaotix fansite quite a bit. Classic Vecpio!!? Don't mind if I do!!! *EATS THIS UP*
Knuckles Chaotix is a great little fansite to give a quick browse through in general. Was a good reference to know which episodes the Chaotix showed up in Sonic X!!!

"Kiwi Wolf" made a lot of cute Sonic art. Big inspiration back when I first saw their art on Team Artail as a kid!!! If you don't experience a genuine smile clicking that link and scrolling through all at art just get out of my face. Go!!!!!!

CPC!!!! All this art still inspires me... It feels a little wrong to just show this Espio as example, but I am here to collect the Espios and that is what I will do.

Whooooo!! A site that is actually still online?? Look at how nicely Eamze draws Espio... they also have a DeviantArt still up. Lots of nostalgia in these. Much love.<3 I always think about their Christmas illustrations, hehe... Definitely some of my absolute favorite Espios still.
Well, that's it for now.

Ughhh, I got so much to say, maybe I'll post more old Sonic art and sites later. While there's a good amount of old web Sonic sites to browse through, there's still very minimal Espio / Chaotix fanart, but I'd still like to talk about them sometime!!
