Air Man boss room in Mega Man 7 style

Description

I'll address a couple of things that might set someone off;

1. The screen size is vastly greater than that of any SNES game. This was done intentionally, however, as if I had kept the SNES screen size Mega Man and Air Man would have almost been shoulder to shoulder with no room for detail.
2. The tileset was based upon the tileset from Air Man's stage in Mega Man: The Wily Wars. Since (in my honest opinion) the tiles in Air Man's stage in Mega Man 2 are an absolute illegible mess. I went into the project using the Mega Man 2 tiles as a reference but past the clouds I couldn't make out anything. The Wily Wars tiles were a lot clearer with detail and actually used more than one block for the entire room.

Anyways; I actually started this before my old computer died. This was really fun to do, I've never actually worked on a tileset project before so it's quite funny that my first is a 16-bit one! The clouds were really fun to do, evidently so as they are probably the most polished aspect of the piece. The rest of the tiles were a little rough around the edges since I'm not too familiar with how Mega Man 7's tiles were designed other than the use of many colours and complete lack of black in the majority of stage tiles. It still turned out pretty good for my first attempt at building tiles, even if they were heavily referenced!

--19/12/2016 EDIT--

I realized when putting together another mockup that the screen size used for the Air Man mockup did not fit the scaled up resolution of the NES Mega Man games, so I decided to remake this using the newly established screen resolution, now it looks a lot more fitting for a remake of a Mega Man 2 (NES) screenshot. The guard rail was removed because I felt that it wasn't necessary and obscured details of the mockup. Also included some rough weapon sprites of a Mega Man 7 style Leaf Shield.

The life bar and other HUD elements are modified by myself, all other work displayed here is mine and custom made unless stated otherwise, edits and collaborations will always be acknowledged and any original artists will receive appropriate credit.
