"ROUND 1 FIGHT"
I figured I wanted to do a Capcom fighting game sprite because I could get a lot of detail in, while still having it be a somewhat retro sprite. The character and face are from scratch, while I found the fonts in places. Halfway through, I realized Street Fighter isn't even my favorite game. So I decided to make one for one of my favorites.
"Megaman Powers"
I love the Inti handheld Megaman games, so I decided to put myself in there as a protagonist receiving "Megaman Powers" from Model X. This one is more editing rather than from scratch. I still put quite a bit of work into making sure the bust looked like me and keeping it the same style of the Megaman Zero/ZX games. I decided to unbeard myself because I feel like I would look more Megaman-ish that way.
