Dark Man

[Magma MK-II]

Well, that's because it's what he does in Megaman 5, he unmasks the fake protoman and leave.

[UltraRoboninja]

Hmmm you're right, he doesn't teleport. Weird. Oh well. Your version's perfect then. 

[Nilakantha]

Well he should atleast leave Rockman a Life Tank.

[Kojunho]

And he should shoot Megaman too.

...you mean, he DOES teleport right? cause the vid clearly shows he does teleport.

[KudosForce]

While I do agree with the others, I must say that it warms my heart to see an intro, that homages a famous scene in MM5. Kudos to you, Magma!

[Nilakantha]

...you mean, he DOES teleport right? cause the vid clearly shows he does teleport.

But if Blues teleports, then he would have to leave a Life Tank behind and I don't think he has that time, so I guess he'll walk away....(I know I'm being silly ignore me  )

[Spidermew]

He could just jump up while standing in his stance mode, just up like a deus ex macna effect. You could even tie ropes into his sholders, and make him look like a cardboard cut out and lift him a way. It would be funny.....

[UltraRoboninja]

Well I mean the traditional Megaman style "teleport" where they turn into a little line and fly straight up or down. In the video he just falls down, unmasks Darkman, then jumps up. No line. Either way is cool with me though.

I've been working on him for a while:


His medium punch. i've been trying to make the move look more natural, and later I noticed it became very awesome!


Yes, Jill Valentine's effects for Darkman #1 hyper.

Awesome, looks like he is slapin and reflecting beams with his hand

[Invader Dooms]

I really like the medium punch. Whenever I see it, I wanna shout "PIMP HAND". Seriously, that's what it looks like to me.

But it's looking great. Can't wait to see a finished product!

[KudosForce]

I agree with ID; It really does look like a pimp slap!

That said, Dark Man #1's hyper move indeed looks awesome. He's shaping up nicely, isn't he?

It was my intention all along to make a pimp slap! Glad my plan was fulfilled!

More progress:


His strong punch. Ouch!


Darkman #3. Very simple, just a barrage of shots.

Why does his body totally change in these sprites? It looks kind of odd to me the way it hapens

[Ununsed-Username]

Looks good, can't wait to see more.

Its because in the game, there are several differnt version of dark man you fight, one with a bazooka arm, one with tank treds, one red and spikey and the other one is normal i think.

And sence its a hologram robot, his base from dosnt have to be anything humane looking. The inhuman apperance of Dark Man is like a reflection into the dark side of humanity, a cold mechine willing to mask itself as something friendly only to distory you.
Its actualy pritty deep if you think about why the character was made.

I mean I understand that, but it is just the way it changes doesn't look right to me. I think it needs more of a flash, like the other sprites that MDMKII did.

Sorry for not staying on topic, but can you check the PM I sent you, DT?

Please do not let this happen again. Interrupting a thread to ask me to check PM's?  I check them on a regular basis when I''m online. I do respond to all of my PMs, just give me time to get there. If I do not respond instantly, it probably means I am dealing with an issue on the forum, or I am responding to other PMs. Patience my young grasshoppa!

Only a robot could gyrate his hips like that...

Anyways nice WIP, this is interesting =3

Indeed, I've been quite interested myself. New animations are lookin' great BTW. 

-"aPoC."

[Magma MK-II]

Some minor things:



I've redone this animation, but something still seems not right...



The crouching weak kick. I've tried to make a russian dance, but to no avail.

[celobateira]

humm maybe the arms position

[Paraside]

humm maybe the arms position

That's right, it seems as if he weren't applying force in the kicks

[Magma MK-II]

Now I've got it right:

I didn't see anything wrong with these kicks, they fit Darkman just right.  I mean Darkman is a twisted robot and is sort of like the Yamazaki of Rockman.  So he doesn't have to apply any force to his kicks.
