    Hehe. Me like.
    Only thing that troubles me, and keeps me orientating about whats what in that pic, is the lack of straight contours. I know it's silly Good thing that armcanon is there, brings a bit of balance to it all.
    I just think the body (shoulder, neck, face) is a little too..... -round-

    God. thats the first time I've made a critique about that :p

    excuse me if I made no sense at all. I just get a feeling when I look at that pic, a mixed feeling. And I just tried to explain that 'feeling'.

    Lol, thanks for the thumbs up and ya I too get a similar feeling of nausea when looking at it. I could tell this one wasn't going to go right from the very start. The really sad thing is, this was suppose to be Nintendo's lovable Megaman if he were turned into a realistic being.

    I'll strive for better in the future.

    Megaman (also known as Rockman, if you're Japanese) could probably be done quasi-realistically. And I would applaud the artists who could create a believable new look for him that would ring true of the excellent new looks that Capcom has given him time and time again over the years. (My favorite being the Rockman X character.)

    One thing to note about Rockman is that there's a reason why he's called Rockman...the game puts a strong emphasis on music. Rockman himself sorta plays into this by absorbing the "styles" of the other robots, a little like an artist learning new techniques. This is also one reason why the series for the most part has always been lighthearted. (With the possible exception of the Megaman X series, which is somewhat more serious.)

    Nice pic! However, I think that his shoulder width is too small, and the arm looks a little short, especially from shoulder to elbow (might be an illusion; the shoulder muscle on him is much, much larger than the bicep). Also, his cranium size doesn't bother me (his eyes are in the middle of the head, as is "realistc"), but his nose seems small. Also, the chin is skewed, or misplaced, or whatever . . . it doesn't align with the rest of the face. Other'n that, good job!
