My entry for a weekly contest held at Capcom Unity related to the game Megaman 10. Just trying to win the cool prize and improve my drawing skills in the process.

In this case we had to do some art-y thing with Blademan (this fellow here, which I partially redesigned). It´s the first time in a long time that I made a background, and I definitely can tell that it didn´t turned out well, but what the heck, it was good practise and had some healthy fun while doing it, it´s all that matters :P.

EDIT: Poll was closed... didn´t even make it to the top ten :(. Thank you all who voted for me, I really appreciate you for taking your time and giving some support :)

It's nicely done, one can feel the movement.

Man, you really redesigned it a lot :P

I wanted to give my own spice to the design, the important features are still there :)

The movement doesn't really fit the background... everything else is nice, tho. I like the "new" design.

I was actually doing something else for the background, but after working a bit, it started to look out of place. After some tests I just settled with this one.
I´m not happy of how it turned out, I´m pretty sure the perspective is a bit screwed up too, the window just looked awkward while making it... but well, I was running out of time and I spent enough time with the drawing :P

Thank for the crit, I´ll definitely take more attention on the backgrounds from now on, I really need a lot of experience in that department.

This is really pretty sweet, I like the action and motion. Definitely agreed on the background point, though, I noticed that too when looking at it. I can't see this kind of action taking place where it did, feels off somehow. Maybe it's the window position or the fact that the Blade guy nor Megaman are interacting with the background at all. (They're just present in it)
