Sonic is a small replica hedgehog made out of cardboard, paper, and LED lights. I took inspiration from the Sega character Sonic as well as Mexican piñatas when thinking about creating this little glowing hedgehog. To assemble the base of the hedgehog I starting off by creating the body and head out of cardboard. Since I was intending to place lights for the quills, I made incisions in the body that I would later use to stick the lights through. I soldered together the wires and lights, daisy chaining them to the appropriate length of the body. Once I was able to add the battery to power the lights, I carefully placed the wires and lights into the body, and decorated the outside with strips of blue paper.
