The NES games may be done, but the 8-bit portraits continue!

Here's Megaman 7 Robot Master Portraits!

Image

These are all custom sprites I made in the style of the older NES portraits. From top to bottom, left to right: Springman, Freezeman, Slashman, Cloudman, Junkman, Turboman, Burstman, and Shademan.

Note that although these are custom sprites, these sprites are color enhanced to reflect their original artwork and SNES colors, not the NES color pallet.

Hey, I'm also on the Pixelgasm forum. Great stuff, and I'm not surprised to come across you on this forum. I've also come across a user named Kokopelli on the Hobby Fanatics Forum. His Super Robot Taisen stuff is awesome.

For anyone interested, making bead sprites is an easy hobby to get into, and it is very addicting.

Moving on...Megaman 8! I remember being SUPER excited to play this on my Saturn in 1997. It's still by far one of my favorite Saturn titles, so yeah, this set has a special place for me.

Megaman 8.These are all custom sprites I made in the style of the older NES portraits. From top to bottom, left to right: Astroman, Tenguman, Frostman, Clownman, Swordman, Searchman, Aquaman, and Gernademan.

Note that although these are custom sprites, these sprites are color enhanced to reflect their original artwork and PS1 colors, not the NES color pallet. These sprites too the longest to produce each of any of my works so far.

Note that these sprites are color enhanced to reflect their original artwork and not the NES color pallet used in MM9.

With these, I’ve completed all the portraits from the Rockman classic main series! Go me!

I'd argue about it being an insta-classic. :P

What about Rockman and Forte?

You jerk! :mrgreen: I knew someone would bring that up! While I will eventually do portraits of the six King series robots, Rockman and Forte's 8.5 status is enough to make me just barely ignore it...for now.

Here's a little something I've made for my niece. Nothing too special, yet nostalgic for me and she seems to like it.

I'd really like to get into this, but everything I'd want to do comes from DOS. Usually mode 13h, which has non-square pixels. Is there anyone who sells rectangular beads and pegboards?
