Continuing with the Trading Card Game artwork, I needed to make artwork for Air Man from MegaMan 2.

I think you can tell from the artwork's pose that I was struggling with understanding how to translate Air Man into Powered Up style while at the same time trying to figure out his anatomy and simultaneously trying to make a cool pose. As you can see he looks a little awkward. Lol.

Either way, however, I think he turned out nicely. The linework and bright colours, especially. I do think he looks very Powered Up but maybe in a future work I could iron out the flaws and make a true masterpiece. :D

UPDATE : I've decided to start refining some of my older Powered Ups - giving them backgrounds, adjusting shading/colour, redoing certain lineart, etc. AirMan was quite obviously one of them. AirMan is one of the the best upgrades in my opinion because it took a piece that was totally devoid of any resemblance to AirMan and made it totally rock. I changed his eyes, a few proportions, some linework, colouring, I added the correct air-vents, some twisters and a better head-shape. I personally think he totally rocks now. "Can't beat AirMan!"
---
UPDATE 2 : As with the rest of the Powered Ups I have decided to get rid of the gradient background on this one and instead opting to use the more retro-feeling one used on the rest of the series of pieces. Other than that, however, nothing else has changed.

I now found the reason why "AirMan Ga Taosenai" was running thru my head. I'm willing to bet this little buddy can't be defeated, can he?

Haha, no he can't! ^_^

I love that tune....

I love this new one a lot more than before, he just feels more like Air Man.

Just what I was thinking! The eyes on the last one suggested a carefree nature while I see Air Man as an unrelentung force of nature...

This one goes right to the faves for a job well done!

Thanks! I think he looks a lot more menacing now too, which is totally the point I think. I'd watched a lot of that "Can't Beat AirMan" video in all it's different forms and remakes, so I slowly realized I didn't quite get AirMan when I first made him. I'd like to think I'm one-step closer now. :)
