Summary

Media data and Non-free use rationale
Description	Early concept artwork of the character who would become Silver the Hedgehog
Author or copyright owner	Sonic Team/Sega
Source (WP:NFCC#4)	http://www.ign.com/articles/2006/09/26/creating-silver-the-hedgehog
Date of publication	2006
Use in article (WP:NFCC#7)	Sonic the Hedgehog (2006 video game)
Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8)	Silver the Hedgehog is a major part of the Sonic the Hedgehog game. He went through more than fifty concepts during development before the final design came out. I believe this is extremely useful for understanding the character of Silver and his creation.
Not replaceable with free media because (WP:NFCC#1)	No such free equivalent exists.
Not replaceable with textual coverage because (WP:NFCC#1)	First, there is no image of Silver anywhere in the article. Second, this is an important part of development, and should provide visual aid for the average reader.
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3)	Silver has no page for himself; there is nowhere else on Wikipedia that it is relevant to.
Respect for commercial opportunities (WP:NFCC#2)	This artwork in no way will affect Sega's attempts to market the Sonic the Hedgehog series and related material.
