Your eyes don't deceive you; there's a major Mega Man resemblance there. The armor clad hero above looks like a cross between a certain "Elec Style" Mega Man pose and the upper body of Mega Man X. Ah well, you know what the say, "imitation is the sincerest form of flattery."

'Mega Man' Dons Game Design Book Cover
There's something oddly familiar about the "Better Game Characters by Design" book cover:

That's a nice find. :)
ReplyDeleteAnd that's... better character design? Taking the torso of one character and the legs and arms from another, and smacking an awful-looking head on top?
ReplyDeleteI think sometimes you should judge a book by its cover, when it has to do with design or art. And you should also put skill into your book covers.
No protodude megaman is blue and this guy is red you crazy guy.
ReplyDeleteI was flipping through the pages that you can view of it on Amazon, and in the Index it doesn't even have MegaMan (or even RockMan) in it. Perhaps the author did that on purpose, so that he could say "Eh? MegaMan? I have no idea what you're talking about... >_>U"
ReplyDeleteWow, this is blatant...
ReplyDeleteLooks a lot like Polka/Reset Man from MS Paint Masterpieces. Poor guy. :)
