Can't believe no one else has made this topic yet. I love the artistic liberties taken by Ariga. Discuss!

...Also the covers for Vol.1 and Vol. 2 kick ass. Not to mention the cover of Giga Mix Vol.2 with Terra and whatnot.

Actually...

Topic by MegamanForever

small preview post by me.


I didn't buy Megaman vol 1 yet. But I will.

[DEJO]

I plan to buy it the day after my b-day so im going to wait and try not spoil myself

[Flame]

Ordered it at Borders. Should get it within a week or so.

I'll probably be pre-ordering Vol. 2 and Vol. 3...and I'm not one to pre-order either...need to get a hold of Classic Complete works along with X Complete Works as well. I heard the Classic Works has ALOT more interesting info though, so if I had to pick one that would be the one.

Hitoshi's renditions are the best! Though I tend to question the goliath size that is Quickman. On another note, Flashman's shotgun mode is just too epic!

It's not so much his size that bothers me but his shoulders...they don't look very aerodynamic for someone who is named Quick Man. What could be less aerodynamic that large boobs on someones shoulders?

Well keep in mind that he isnt actually "quick" at all, but in fact controls time around him to make it seem that he is really fast. that equipment is inside his huge self no doubt.

Well wouldn't Flashman be around the same size? I mean yeah he's got a timestopper equipped on his arm but my guess would be he needs a lot of juice to power that thing.
So I don't see why Quickman's that big.

Very true, I had forgotten about his profile in the back of the book. Even then though design wise from Wily's standpoint it really couldn't hurt to make his shoulders more sharp on top of hugeness (basically just mold it from the pre-existing roundness) of the shoulders...looking similar to his chest emblem and horns if not only to make movement less cumbersome while he's moving so "fast," i.e. controlling time. I'm really just knitpicking based on Quick Man's sprite and official art from MM2. I still like the design Ariga chose, it just looks a little odd to me is all.

[Soenaz]

Lol, I actually just digested Quickman's bio right now so I'm starting to understand why he's so huge

"from Wily's standpoint it really couldn't hurt to make his shoulders more sharp on top of hugeness" Amen to that!

[Vile]

Flash Man is pwned by Quick Man. Ironic.

[Flame]

How about this thought.
Making Quickman this huge lumbering menace with a giant boomerang just makes him look 10 times more badass, because he LOOKS like he could fuck you up.
