Thank you so much! I am really glad you like it. It was very fun to work on; and personally, I don't think there is enough artwork of Phantoon out there. He was such a creepy boss.

: D Thank you so much! I'm glad you like it. : ) This one was really fun to do cuz of the monster's long arms. It was nice getting to try some perspective with him. : D

Gustauve-Drakenhime In reply to ravenshield [2007-05-16 15:53:41 +0000 UTC]

Indeed. I must admit that this is the first Phantoom I've seen to send a nostalgic shiver down my vertebral column; it turned my blood to ice.
I hope that you don't mind, but I must tell you that I put this through Microsoft CG and gave it color, as well as a background I had drawn specifically for this picture. I did not take any credit for it when I showed it at a college in Belfast, I wrote 'Designed by Ravenshield ~ deviantART'. I must say that there was quite an uproar - Metroid fans howled, non-gamers marveled, and gamers not familiar to Metroid went up to ask me where they could get the game in which this depiction occured! So again I must say that this is an amazing work of art.

oh wow!! Gosh that is so cool! : D I am really glad that you liked this so much, and of course I don't mind at all! The fact that something I drew could get such a reaction, really...well it makes me feel really good!! : D Thank you so much!! By chance, is there any way you could take a picture of it, or scan it? I'd love to see it! : )

Gustauve-Drakenhime In reply to ravenshield [2007-05-17 15:41:18 +0000 UTC]

I could very well try.
But I have to find it first... -_-,
It was a couple of weeks ago which may very well mean that I'll have to search my house when I get off duty again; and if you ever entered my house, you may feel that you could become lost in it. LOL.
Like I said though, I will try to find it.

Phantoon was the final boss general in the Wrecked Ship level in Super Metroid. He was a psychokinetic alien that acted much like a ghost, summoning those floating eyeballs, and fading in and out of reality while attacking. When you beat him you'll return power to the Wrecked Ship and be granted the Gravity Suit. : )

ravenshield In reply to victortky [2007-03-15 05:05:50 +0000 UTC]

: ) Oh you will. I'm working on Spore Spawn now. After that I'll hit Botwoon and General Draygon. All that'll be left after those are Mother Brain, Ridley, and Torizo [who isn't really what I'd call a boss, or even a mini-boss, but...I'll do one for it anyways.] Super Metroid is, easily, my all-time favorite video game, so I love doing fan art for it. : 3

I was so sad, a few weeks ago I discovered that my SNES, aparently, no longer works. : ( It turns on, and will read the cartridges, but the picture is always hyper pixelated, or all visuals are just completely unrecognizable. I would actually pay somebody to fix it for me, [that's how much I love it X 3] but I really don't think anybody's in the business of doing that anymore, being that it's such an old system.

Nekoren In reply to ravenshield [2007-06-29 03:20:48 +0000 UTC]

You do realize that Nintendo, or a Pawn broker, will fix it for you for about a hundred bucks CAD, right?
Do you live anywhere near a Nintendo Corp.?

ravenshield In reply to Nekoren [2007-07-01 18:13:22 +0000 UTC]

Really? That's good to know! I didn't think Nintendo would even have the appropriate matierals available any longer to repair such out-dated systems. I'll give em a ring and see what they can do for me, cuz I'd really love to have it working again. : )

Now this boss I had a fun time with. He was a challenge, but not like Kraid or that leviathan boss in Meridia (forgot the name) where environmental hazards were a problem. I also thought the character design was really cool, all the spikes all over the back, the octopus like appearance, and the eye-ball inside the mouth...I just didn't expect it it be that...big. Could have done without all of those lost souls wandering his ghost ship too...they were a pain in the ass

Awesome job yet again! Keep them comming ^_^ Waves of nostalgia washing over me, lol

ravenshield In reply to CosmicDistortion [2007-03-15 05:12:00 +0000 UTC]

The leviathan's name was "Botwoon". : ) I'm gonna make onea' these pictures of him too, after I finish up Spore Spawn whom I just started on now. Ya, I fudged his size a bit in this, but I just love seeing Samus face off against these outstandingly large creatures, and with those tentacles a' his, he made a great subject for perspective and stuff.
I'll definatly have more comming up! X D Spore Spawn is next, then Botwoon, Draygon, Torizo, Ridley, and finally - the Mother Brain herself. : )

CosmicDistortion In reply to ravenshield [2007-03-15 20:05:01 +0000 UTC]

Awesome! Look foreward to the one with Torizo ^_^ <3 the Chozo

Oh, and I meant Draygon, too she was the one I had so much trouble with...could never get her close enough to the sparks to electrocute her...bitchy sea monster that she was, XD

ravenshield In reply to CosmicDistortion [2007-03-15 22:32:08 +0000 UTC]

Oh I know! She was such a pain, cuz if you DIDN'T use those busted nodes to electrocute her and tried to just defeat her normally, it took for-e-ver, and god forbid she ever picked you up and started on with that tail attack. =_=

CosmicDistortion In reply to ravenshield [2007-03-16 04:27:23 +0000 UTC]

I tried Super missiles, but they still took forever and a half...and honestly, the first time she did that tail whip thing (which was a bitch and a half when it came to damage) I thought she was trying to analy probe Samus...it just looked so wrong, XD
