I am hella late to the party, but I've been wanting to do a retro megaman for some time. I whipped together enough concept to get started (before you ask, yes I did use TF2's pyro proportions =):

The concept is megaman as a retro astronaut, with a touch of 40's style cartoons / comic books. I am also toying with the idea of making him rather old and worn out looking.
I tried to model this idea once before about two years ago and made a pretty mediocre model. I think I'll give it another shot.
I'm going to try to get out a base mesh this weekend, then do a paint over on it so that I can get a clearer idea of what kind of hard surface details I want in there.
Don't think I'll finish by deadline, but I think with three free days between now and the deadline I can at least generate a decent high poly.
