Description I'd been meaning to do art of Metroid for quite a while, and I had a free day, so why not?

The intergalactic Bounty Hunter (who does more galaxy saving then actual bounty hunting) versus Leader of the Space-Pirates (who do more intergalactic conquest then actual pirating) in the DEPTHS OF NORFAIR AAHHHHH

I love this series so much.

Samus+Ridley (c) Nintendo

Art: ME (also using free stock textures+some homemade ones)

Really great job! As a fellow Metroid artist/fan, I love how stylized you made this! It looks like it would belong in an official comic. Ridley is so expressive, and Samus especially is really fantastic. Great work!

Well you've clearly got the skill and the style down for comic arting . I love how even though Samus' pose is static, the lines(esp. in her legs) are curved enough to convey speed and movement. I really suck at that kinda stuff. Keep up the great work! I'm looking forward to more!

That's actually really good looking!

I very much like how you drew Samus' suit. It almost looks feminine the way it is sleek. I also admire how you did Ridely, seeing as I could never draw something like that that well myself. This is wonderful.

ERMAGAWRD!

It's so... EPIC. Dude, I love the way you draw the Power Suit. So sleek and... just really, really badass. Also, I dig the texture work in this piece. This would make a fine poster on my wall!

Sweet! As long as they're not too expensive, I'll totally buy one from ya! I'd love to hang up a bunch of my favorite prints all over my office. It'd be super inspiring, I think!

I absolutely love the style you drew in, as well as the use of smooth colors and the shading. Samus will totally curbstomp Ridley. Excellent work!!

I like how Ridley's pose creates an X-shape. It really draws your eyes into the center of the piece.
