Most proud of this, I did it and I was tired the entire time XD...


You might need to take out a few details on this one, I was thinking the eyes could be purple instead.


I'm still working on him, but I'm tired so I'm just going to post what I have so far for him.

So far I have about 4/8 done now, so I'll get to work on the others later. I'm going to bed XD!


All three look awesome.

Excellent, ST! I'll start working with them as soon as my hangover is gone. I made the rum gone!

Geh. I don't like them that much. At least compared to the mugshots from the original games. These look like obvious knock-offs.

Well excuse me for using those as inspiration =V

Also these guys never officially had mugshots and if you ask me it's better than recoloring the original 6 from Wily Wars.

You're entitled to your opinion, and to be honest I don't like my Gutsman. I wanted to fit the Megaman style for one, and for two the faces look nearly the same in almost every game, so it's not like they shouldn't look like that. Every game 2-6 and 9 basically have the exact same style for the mugshots so it's... meh I like my Iceman one and the other 3 I personally don't. =\

Iceman is the best one for sure, if you're unhappy with the rest I'd say redraw them with Iceman as a base. =)

Edit: if you want you could always use the original art as the basis for your mugs. I'd use the action pose versions.

Well, the close up is better, but the position of the red thing is too low. Put the red thing higher up between the 2 bells like in the first version and it'll look much better. =)

That's better, yes. The only other thing I'd do is move his pupils one pixel over to the left and right respectively. =)

That iceman is ok, but I think his crotch fell out. =P

Yeah, it's kinda hard to do sprites at times, but I don't want to recolor stuff because I've been spriting long enough to know that recoloring feels disgraceful. I could recolor Iceman from the 8bit version of Power Fighters and Battle but that'd feel like cheating which I don't like doing. I'm gonna try my own thing on Iceman then he should look better because I was looking at the other sprite while making it so it was kinda like I was looking off someone else's paper and didn't quite copy down all their answers correctly.

It's hard to get the mugshots right because I always want to fit a lot of detail in, but in the end I don't have their face zoomed in enough but I'm trying XD.

Is that good now? XD

That's much better!
And, yeah, you don't have to worry about so much detail. Some of the detail is inevitably going to get lost when I port them to the ROM.
Maybe it would help you to study the composition of the portraits in the other NES MMs?

Based on Power Fighters like you asked, I say this one came out much better than Iceman.

Ooo!! I like the way the scissors came out!

Which one's better as far as the colors?

This is the original palette:


This is the one made to look more like MM1 NES:

I like the MM1 colors better, just due to the fact that it's supposed to be a MM1 remake.

ShadowTails, take it or leave it, but here's something I can give you as a start for Oil Man

That looks more like some sort of sneaky oil kid. He needs more of a man jaw

Yeah, that's why I said as a start. I would never keep that as a finished product, I just figured I would let ShadowTails do the honor of making it look good if he wanted it, seeing how he's doing the graphics for the bosses.

That is a good start, Dr.

I like the second frame palette because it makes it stand out more and looks more like MM1. But so far ppls opinions are half & half.



3rd Draft:
I'm not doing the usual "STAGE SELECT" text because everyone should know that already.

I like the 2nd draft better, that looks a bit crowded.

Damn, Boing! You're the first one to say that! I honestly thought more ppl would have had a like opinion.

I'm already working on something a little different. Kind of a way to make it look more like a console like in MMPU.
