Haha that's so awesome dude :)

I want a metroid prime 4 D;

Totally my favorite too x3 I freaking love the Metroid series <33

Most excellent job on this art as well!!

fucking...BEAUTIFUL!

TITS ARE WHERE?!

I kid this is an amazing pic! :D

Tits are in the red chest plate. :P

Anyone with a brain cell can figure that out.

FFFFF-

Epic. I love everything about this :D

That is AWESOME. Great work

Samus is an amazing mercenary! You do her justice with this image!

Thanks. I think she's a bounty hunter, but I guess they're very similar.

bounty hunter; that was what I had meant but the words were not coming to me at the time XD Still though, very well done. She has been one of my favorite games since growing up, and it is truly a delight to see her drawn in such an epic manner.

Actually it was admitted that there was confusion on her title. Although she's called a Bounty Hunter, her work rarely ever involves a specific person with a bounty on their head, rather, they end up paying Samus to do odd jobs (exterminate life forms, be a bodyguard for specimine collectors, etc.), which is more akin to a Mercinary.

However, in recent times, it's been sorta adaptated that in the Metroid universe, Samus is classified as a "Hunter" who will perform spec ops type tasks if the "Bounty" is good, thus, making her a Bounty Hunter.

Therefor, calling her a Merc or a Bounty Hunter is both correct.

looks gorgeous!

Hell yeah, Samus Aran. Props to you.

HOLY... FUCKING... HELL.... this is absolutely incredible and one of the best renditions of Samus Aran that i have seen.. and i have seen ALOT. One of my favorite artists brought one of my favorite video game characters ever... To Life.. No words man, the style on this is 100% flawless.. you have 100% this run of metroid.. Job Well Done.

...just damn..

Funny, I was imagining this picture as like one of the end game shots where it tells you your run time and item collection %. I always talked about how much I like Metroid but I realize I rarely actually draw it.... something I hope to correct this year.


"See you next mission."

...CAN I FUCKING MARRY YOU OH MY GOD HNNNNNNG METROID WALLPAPER AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA *squee*

Dude, seriously, this is epic, and Metroid in general is epic. So awesome

I'm flattered, but sorry, I'm already engaged.

XD Ah, it's fine, I love the picture but I was mostly going insane.

wow! this looks awesome!

Yes, you can fap to this, you just gotta try harder.

liiiies. lies and BABYS!!:P

ugh... Other M... I'm just hoping the next Metroid doesn't follow the same trend of objectifying her... that would just ruin it for me again

Well that was "Team Ninja" who made Other M not "Retro Studios."
(That made MP1,2,& 3)

Yes, I am aware of that; I have bought every possible metroid game. I meant that I just hope Team Ninja didn't start a trend that's going to run Metroid into the ground

OHHHH SHINY!!!! :D

Awesome!

So Badass always.

Very nice, always liked the Metroid franchise x3

Just a damn glorious piece of art.

Will you attempt to art her in her Fusion Suit at some point?

I haven't thought about that, I may do that at some point.

wow dude. The lights are looking gorgeus on the suit

I saw you do the shading on this. Man it looks realistic

Holy shit, this is amazing! Beautifully done, much kudos for this!

Love work of our favorite female bad-ass bounty hunter. The first woman in gaming deserves no better.

A good tribute. We need another game that returns her to this level of badassery.

Agreed. Other M was too... impotent.

It played well enough. I enjoyed the gameplay but.. That story and depiction of Samus just hurt.

she is just, so, magnificent. this is sooo pretty.

I caught a bit of the stream of this, but only a bit. I was all like "hey I'm learning some tricks on digital art" but seeing this... I feel I missed the actual art part ;3;
BUT I STILL MANAGED TO BYPASS THE LAWS OF PHYSICS AND ACTUALLY WATCH THE STREAM. O-O

what part of the stream did you manage to watch?

The right side pipes were finished when I joined, you had been working on samus's shoulder armor orb thingies when I left. The rest of her was still flat.

The right side pipes were finished with just the first level of shading. The rest was flat. Not completely

Epic!

There is nothing I don't love about this. Thank you for sharing this!

FUCK YES METROID! i love that game so much!

you and me both ^_^

Only one thing comes to mind: "See you next mission!"

This is so beautiful and detailed excellent job, u magnificent artist

Thanks! ^_^

Absolutely amazing work on Samus and the background! The level of detail, the shading and lighting, and the pose are all spectacular and very well done!

For my favorite video game heroine, I wouldn't want anything less.

Metroid, I always loved this serie.
And the last, Other M suprised me a lot, a 3D plateform game, with amazing close combat technics.
This gamee is juste one of the best with Prime serie.
Very nice work

It was a fun game, and I probably would have enjoyed it even more if they omitted the story.

Yeah, the gameplay is nice ^^
But having a story in a Metroid is a very nice plus ^^

Beautifully done. A perfect tribute to our favorite bounty hunter!

Now that's Samus Aran.

Indeed.

Someone must have taken 4.5 hours to beat Super Metroid. =P

Huh....She can unhinge her thumbs like I can. o.o
