Description
It's everyone's favorite bounty hunter sitting down in some repair shop after perpetrating some dark deeds of justice.Also, I notice that if I search 'Metroid', more than half the pictures are Samus in her zero suit. And most of these guilty images make me want to wash my eyes out with soap. So, behold, zero-suit Samus drawn in the least-sexualized way imaginable. Like it should be.

I love your interpretation of Samus' suit. I can never get enough of that epic armor design and good reimaginings of its look, and this one is one of my personal favorites.

This works as a very grounded take on metroid, and a plausible look on the time consuming setup of this lifestyle.

Thanks!
Yeah, needs a bit more than an oil check every 3000 miles, huh?

I totally agree about the zero-suit samus. I really like this one. it sparks my imagination of how her suit isn't this magic thing that appears and breaks to make the plot of a game work, but is a part of her that needs to be maintained in one way or another

Ha ha! Yeah. A lot of that is inspired by my time on a robotics team irl. I figured Samus would go through similar struggles. You know, on a suit with dozens of joints and hundreds of muscle cables.

There are so many things I like about these designs. The claws on the feet for gripping, the cables everywhere I assume make the suit "move" with Samus intuitively, the pieces of gear she's still wearing... even that holographic blueprint makes me think there are still a few things about the suit she forgets sometimes, and needs to look up in her log book.

Thanks! The cables are artificiall muscles/tendons, and were mainly inspired by the pictures here: www.neoseeker.com/metroid-ii-r…
And also by the nanosuit from the game 'Crisis'.
The claws I imagine would be good for traction, or for kicking (like the knee spikes). Glad you like!

Love this. Were you inspired by Tony Stark's Iron Man machine shop when drawing this?

The holographic prints definitely were. But that rolling cabinet there is actually the same one my robotics team uses, and the rest is just stuff I thought would be handy.
