Description
Hi everyone! I'm a beginner in pixel art and this is my very first attempt on Mega Man sprites.
Thinking that Mega Man 8 and X4–X6 have the best pixel art style, I always want to convert the MM1–MM10 Robot Masters into MM8 style.
These are my renditions of Mega Man 1 Robot Masters (except Mega Man and Cut Man which is taken from the original Mega Man 8 game).
I really enjoyed making these especially Guts Man and Time Man (although Time Man's palms gave me some hard time, 
Also I would like to thank ZEDIC0N for the inspiration and being the motivation to me.

I have to say, these are absolutely magnificent!
It's not often that someone undertakes a challenge to try and recreate and emulate the Mega Man 8 and Mega Man & Bass style as well as you have but also to do an entire lineup of characters is truly extraordinary, a very fitting choice too being the very first Mega Man title, including the additional Powered Up robot masters. The general look and feel of the style has been captured really fluently in theses sprites, the exaggerated design to the traditional Mega Man anatomy in details like the hands, busters and boots looks great and the shading and highlights are pretty much spot on, the one aspect I would comment on in regards to these components is the general colour rendering of Fire Man's left buster, as you've got the shadows and highlight facing the opposite direction to those on the rest of the sprite, though this is only a minor mistake and is easily correctable.
The designs of the robot masters have been represented very well largely, even the more unusual designs like Elec Man and Oil Man and all their poses feel very much in character and confidently portrays the characters personality and power. A few comments I will make regarding poses and design are Guts Man's thighs seem to be a little too short, I would make them longer by a single pixel, this will also improve his rather squat stature. Ice Man seems to be a little too similar in height and build to Mega Man, I'd recommend reducing the size of the boots and torso by a slight margin and making the overall design a slight bit broader to represent the arctic coat design. Conversely, Bomb Man seems a little too large, though since there is no canonical heights given for any of these characters and scaling them based on artwork is entirely impossible I'd say this is artistic licence at work so I'll let you be the judge of that, his head does seem to be slightly off model though, I don't think you've exaggerated his beak shaped mouth quite enough and the Mohawk plate seems to be going at a different angle than the rotation of the head.
Regardless of my comments and feedback, I'm thoroughly impressed by the work you've presented and am eager to see what you have in store for the future, you've earned yourself a watch from me, keep it up!

Dear Jamie,
I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude for your sincere and in-depth comments on my work.
You pinpointed the mistakes which I overlooked, and I especially agree on the flaws in Bomb Man's sprite.
I definitely will edit the sprites (and add back Bond Man into the roster
Thank you again for your feedback and it truly helps me improve.
Cheers,
Anton
