This Mega Man Has Been Through the Wringer
With as diverse a fandom as the Mega Man community has garnered, there’s been all sorts of fan artwork in just as diverse of styles. But I think this is by far the grittiest Mega Man I’ve ever seen. This comes from artist David Szilagyi, who wanted to give his own spin on the Blue Bomber.
I can believe this take probably doesn’t appeal to everyone, but I like its theme. After all, Mega Man has taken some pretty heavy blows in recent years. This artwork depicts a Mega Man who is certainly down, but not about to bow out. Just like us, right??
Remember kids, the surgeon general advises against smoking due to adverse health effects.
Thanks very much for the creative piece, David!

Send this to Capcom, David. This really expresses our feelings as fans.
Vile can really give it, eh?
This is what a battle-scarred Megaman X would look like, but doesn’t X have green eyes?
Don’t know why robots need to smoke but whateves.
@DaiSanSei Same reason they would drink (ie Vile).

As well done as this is I still think it’s a sad day when a close up of Bad Box Art X is news. :/
If David Fincher directed a Mega Man X movie, it would look like this.

Well to be technical, he never really drank it, he just poured it to make a point then crushed the glass.
