Description
It's rare that a game is so good that I actually stop playing it to draw a tribute to it - but Metroid Prime Trilogy deserved it!So here's Samaus Aran upholding her rep as one of the galaxy's best bounty hunters.
I tried playing the original Prime a few years back and although I loved the story and mythos, the fact that you couldn't run and move the camera at the same time ensured I never got more than an hour in.
I finally got ahold of the redone Triliogy which turns the wii remote into Samus's arm cannon. It removes all the clunkyness, it's gotta be the most immersive fps I've ever played!
Anyhoo not sure what I was going for with the background, I sort of just keep layering with cross hatching till I got something suitably atmospheric

Whoa. This emphasizes the very entity of awesomeness.
The pose is great, as is the color and detail. The overall look of the piece gives it a unique appearance and feeling. I love it. The cannon looks great, as does the hand--many artists have a hard time getting that armored hand to look accurate and realistic--but the way you depict it, it excels in both categories. And the background works well. Color me impressed.

Thanks, I'm glad you like it!
And thanks heaps for the feedback. Armour is a rewarding challenge to draw and it's always great to hear an in depth crit, what works and what doesn't and all that.
Thanks again

Thanks! Yeah I figured this captures the rough techno-ruin vibe of the series better then pencils.
Heh I highly recommend it
