In this study and redesign, it's Darth Vader as a Robot Master! To get the most out of this, I'm breaking down some SNES-era Mega Man sprites to see how they are constructed - looking into things like outlines, silhouette, colour palette, and more!

  • Vader has become more machine now than Mega-Man, pixilated and evil...
  • Very impressive the whole study about the mega man's characters. Really loved the video
  • 6:56: "...kinda hard to imagine Vader with a buster cannon..." Well that's because it's not a Buster Cannon, it's Force Cannon! In a MegaMan/Star Wars mashup universe, The Force should be some kinda mechanically achieved unnatural fifth force besides the good, and natural electromagnetic, gravitational, weak, and strong forces.
  • I'll be patiently waiting for Villainous Sillhouette's Album
  • "Vid Over, Continue? 10... 9... 8... 7..." Me: Pauses video Video: :O

    As a programmer, I've always wanted to refine my art skills and you've inspired me to finally get to study pixel art properly. Keep up the awesome work!
  • Vader Man Stage: Death Star Space Fortress Boss: Vader Man Weapon: Sith Saber Weakness: Jedi Force Quote: "Join the Dark Side of the Force Jedi Mega Man!"
  • You make this seem so easy. I've spend days trying to make even satisfactory pixel art.
  • Hey I just wanted say that I really like your channel! I've been studying pixel art for about 8 months or so and just came back after a short break! You are one of the only youtube channels that give simple pixel art tutorials, most don't explain it too well and I usually get frustrated after watching 30 minutes worth of tutorials and getting nowhere with it! However just seeing your workflow helped me a lot! I'm especially like how you study the sprites to mimic a certain style and I think I'm gonna start doing that (With that in mind, where do you get the sprites from? Just so I can have an idea of where to go.) I will definitely be coming back to this channel often to learn more. Thanks!
  • Really good material, through your simple (but effective) way of explaining I've learned a lot of important concepts. Thanks!
  • @DadVader
    This is sooooo COOL! Thank you YouTube for this suggestion! 😍🔥🔥🔥
  • Amazing work! Thank you so much Brandon! Enjoyed watching your tutorials!
  • BJG, THANK YOU. Your channel the most helpful for creating characters in pixel art. I've been starting with the silhouette the whole time, and what happens is as I develop the character I get trapped with a bad form thinking it was because of something else. I'm SO stealing your work flow, thank you again.
  • I don't know if you've ever covered something like this, but I'd love to learn some techniques on how to do some Castlevania Symphony of the Night looking sprite animation.
  • Yooo you are a legend in mmy eyes! you have changed my pixel art FOREVER Thank You
