Amazing "Rockman 123" Tribute Art is Amazing


There's something so visually tantalizing about these pieces from Pixiv artist Taru Souga that I just had to post them here. The effortless convergence of bold lines, high shadows and limited colors make these pieces a true feast for the eyes. You could say the whole style is reminiscent of Atsushi Nishigori's handiwork in Gurren Lagann. Oh, and be sure to hit the jump for Souga's Rockman 3 piece. It's the best of the lot, IMO.

I don't know about you, but I'd love to see Souga tackle the remaining Classic series games. I've got to get this stuff on a poster or something!

  4. Nice Rock and Blues. The positioning reminds me of one of my favourite pieces from R20.

    Typical hatred of Gurren Lagann cause it is so damn popular and you continue to bash it like the idiot you are... >_>

  8. I'd love to see a Gainax-produced Megaman anime. Perhaps when the planets are in alignment.
