I figured you aren't cool unless you have at least one piece of Megaman fan-art, so I threw this together for my Newgrounds portfolio. Also, I've seen a few other people attempt the steam punk style on him, but I didn't think they did it justice. I think this turned out well.
The People Have Spoken
Average Score: 9.6 / 10
Coooooooooool Keep The Good Work
reminds me of X
even the dents look nice ;D
love the cinder and smoke.
It really looks awesome since it's supposed to look like an old fashioned steam powered machin, but in the future. It's really cool how you incorporated all the old fashioned things such as little cogs where his joints are, and the way you made his armor copper colored, and the sort of mannequin like face.
I also like all the other little details that you put into his armor, such as the little dents, the little scratch marks, or the little rust forming around his armor. What looks weird to me his left arm, where the cannon is. It looks like it would have been attached to his bicep at a wrong angle, but maybe that's just me :S
Great idea, and great execution of that idea. This is wonderful. You rarely see any Megaman concept art, so this was a nice thing to see aside from the usual Megaman art.
I think the metal could have been a bit more weathered and corroded or some pieces extra polished to better fit the steampunk theme which is more about mixing 'junk' metals and coppers to make very mechanical contraptions. I want to say he need a monicle but thatd be tacky :P
Author's Response:
Utah stole the monocle, as well as the handle-bar mustache. Damn Bandelin and his "ahead of the times" ways. I was going to add more oxidization to the copper and more dents here and there, but I didn't want them to take away from the over-all piece and become the focal point of the character. I wanted the viewer to think that perhaps the Megaman at this state had gone through at least a few repairs and upgrades. So I guess I thought too much about it. You're a good reviewer Luis.
That's awesome! Ãoeber awesome!
