Description Megaman, Protoman, and X are all (C) CAPCOM
Protoman Y is my concept and my username on the Capcom-Unity boards.

This is a sprite sheet I made of a concept of "Proto Man in X Series". I originally only made the first sprite with the scarf, but decided, "Hey, what the hell? I've got time and someone on Newgrounds probably could use the idea for a flash." and proceeded to make the full sheet, using Megaman X's sheet for a base. I openly admit this to be a recolor of Megaman X, because there's no getting around that.

Basically, the process was recoloring X to Zero's palette, adding a pink buffer-shade from Protoman's "Rockman and Forte" sprite, recoloring said Protoman sprite's scarf with Zero's hair palette, and careful arrangement of the scarf and a reshaded shield on the recolored sprites for decent animation. All while hand-drawing the sunglasses on each frame.

The reason this exists in the first place is I needed a character in an RP on GameFAQs Megaman Zero Collection board. [link] taking place in and around Zero 3, but before Zero 4. Well, NebulaGregarZX needed a new body for his character, and I just used Rock Volnutt to dig Protoman out of Vile's scrapyard. Nebula then remodeled ol' Blues into this design, and then I made Protoman wake up and freak out that someone was trying to fix him unwelcomedly.

My username there is Bluemew22, and we're currently in the 61st page of posts, or 101st page of content in the archival MSWord Doc I maintain. I recommend reading the archival Document instead of the first thread... there's a lo of non-canon (to the RP) stuff random morons threw in to throw us off. While archiving the first thread, I stripped out all the nonsense while maintaining anything plot-relevant.

Feel free to join us if you can find a way to connect us to the ZX Advent RP we're trying to work up to (already 6 threads in). [link]

Please wait about a page (ten posts) after you inroduce your chacter before introducing any MacGuffin's to kill off our most recent Ass Pull of a villain: Oud, and no reviving Axl, we already killed him off for plot reasons.

Also: Fefnir, Rock, and Roll are all free game to be controlled if you don't have a character. I'm currently manning all 3 of them on top of Servebot-X, Volnutt, and ProtoMan Y. If you want to write for X, make sure you know his personality, we don't need him suddenly going Big Damn Heroes when his only armament is a shard of glass and a Servebot's crane-game arms, or him being more badass than Zero.

May I have permission to use this sprite sheet as a material for a character known as Dark Protoman?

The Scarf and Shield make this look bad.

WOW! I can agree that the Shield was out of place in some frames, but his Scarf and Shield are what make Protoman himself. Without them, he would just be a recolor of Mega Man with sunglasses, even though the author* did remind viewers that this still was a recolor of X, regardless of changes.

The scarf was pulled from Mega Man 8 and MM&B. The shield was pulled from Mega Man 7 due to absence from MM8. Those two are why Protoman is what he is now. Just look at the degraded version of this same sheet, made by Protoshop.

*The author was SRB2Master1337.
