When I first conceived of these video game recreations, I thought I would stick to the oldest games because they were simple to put together, and I could do them fast. Unfortunately, some of the games that I've always liked don't always translate so well when you just make one character at a time (see Legend of Zelda for what I'm talking about).I've wanted to tackle most of the Mega Man villains, but they're big and take a long time to map out correctly. So how did I end up with this, my largest portrait to date? I have no idea. I just got inspired one day to make the actual portrait on the menu selection screen, instead of the guy himself. I'll get to him someday. I almost ran out of those light green bricks. Sadly, he'll probably be the only portrait I do because all the others ones have colours I cannot replicate in Lego form.
Darn, I just noticed that I screwed up a bit right before posting it. I fixed it. This one actually didn't take too long because the different colour lines make it easy to avoid (major) screw ups.

This is easily my favorite! Punch Out portraits are probably the next step. very awesome!
i see you've decided to go with the light pink...good choice. maybe it was those couple of emails i sent that said..."go with the lighter pink" that persuaded you. nonetheless great job! ;D
I counted the Punch Out!! portraits and they are almost 80 pixels across. That would be way bigger than I can handle. This one was about 34 across. I was afraid to even count the height of a Punch Out!! picture...
either way, i am looking forward to what you do next and have faith in you that one day you will be able to tackle such a feat.
