I'm a fan of metroid and PA, I came across the link in Tychos rant and fell in love with The songs! They're awesome! I drew something up to show my appreciation for the wonderful addition to my playlist! Thank you!

:shock: Wow, sweet!

Is that supposed to be Samus, or just a chick who likes Metroid and plays bass?

i think that's supposed to be Samus.

Nice drawing BTW

umm, a very androgynous person, you..... drew... there...

the face especially...

haha.

A 3-string bass with Metroids on it? Cool! I'd love to have it

I would put it in photoshop, put a big red circle around her chest and just have a question mark next to it, but I'm at school so you're lucky....
I see what you mean though she is kinda boyish in the facial area, the build doesn't help either, but I didn’t want to make her all skinny like, samus is a strong girl, no?

It is suppose to be samus, but it can be taken however you want.

if it werent for the breasteses it would be very confuzling.

Fantastic shading work. Did you color it in PS? :shock: If so, you are my new god.

Iruka, that is brilliant!! ops:

I'm seriously considering what art to use for the CD and future MM "items". You are an inspiration. Thanks for this.

Man, you guys are mean. Why not comment on how good it looks or how much time would have gone into it, instead of saying she looks "androgenous" or that the bass only has three strings? I just figured the girl was sort of tomboyish. The boobs and hips make it fairly obvious.

Anyway, this is great art man. Keep up the good work and don't worry about my friend NorfairThug, he's socially deformed.

I'm a girl! But thanks for the kind words. Dont worry, I'm used to a crits, they only help me get better.

Stemage, I'm glad you like it! I love the songs, they're great. If you have any ideas that you want sketched out, I will do my best! All you have to do is ask. and I'm just a lowly high schooler so you don't have to worry about any huge fees for a sketch, I might able to loan you some time getting your ideas sorted out before you seek out a professional! I'll be happy to help.

by any chance, are you a fan of naruto?

Nope. I've heard alot about it but I haven't seen it..

very good anime, i highly recommend it.

The point on thinking it's Samus makes it 10x cooler.

Woah, that art is amazing. A little tomboyish, but when was the last time you saw Samus with a guy? (And Houston doesn't count, he's more girly than her )

Very very nice

In all honesty, I think the Swedish Swim Team version of Samus seen in Metroid Prime is laughable. Good God. Extrapolating from the neck-up view, it becomes apparent that Samus is too freaking lanky to move the stupid suit, Chozo blood or no.

More stuff about the picture:

• I really like the "chunky" style of the hands - for that matter, the sketchy, unrefined look of the whole picture. The contrast between the meticulous coloring/shading and the unsmoothed line art is great.
• Unkempt hair = t3h sexx.
• One of the few female guitarist pics I've seen where the strap doesn't do something disturbing to the boobage.
• Believable pose. Another wonder.
• My one real crit is the eyes - her right eye is a little small compared to the rest of her face; makes it seem a teensy bit high and sunk in. Only really pops out when actively looking for flaws, though.

That’s what I was thinking when I drew it. I highly doubt Samus is lanky, considering the strength it would take to move/jump/flip rapidly in a suit like that. Plus if you look at the fusion suit, considering the skin tightness of that suit, she’s has got a lot of muscle in her upper body, especially in her shoulders.

thanks for the crits nida, I see the little eye problem, it seems i just got a little long with that right eyelash. And in response to your earlier question, this was inked, scanned, and then colored in Photoshop. I love that program with all my heart.

Gonna do any others? I'm always looking for art for my Metroid screensaver--whether official art or fanart.

As A Professional Bass Instructor, I Would Like To Take This Time To Point Out That If Anyone Actually Played A Bass That Low, They'd Last About Six Months Before Their Wrists Fell Off From Carpal Tunnel.â„¢

Thank You All.

lol.... :roll:


Guess that means be a little more asthetic for the next drawing.

I know nothing of bass holding, and you can thank the PA:AC (penny arcade artist corner) for the dang thing even resembling a musical instrument at all, I haven't a clue about the anatomy of a guitar or anything of the like.

Dadink I do have some older stuff that is metriod, it sucks though..


New---->Old

:shock:

Wow.

The bottom pic of Samus = t3h r0X!

In-CREDIBLE work, man. I could just... stare at it for hours... in fact, I will.

*hours later* Samuuusssss.... @_@

Okay. That's it. Yet another reason for me to throw away all my art supplies for all eternity.

*worships Iruka*

My thoughts exactly. She either passed out from kicking a few back, or was dead tired.

<saves all for Metroid screensaver>

Keep up the work! Can't wait for the next stuff.




Damnit I wish I was artistic..



EDIT: I just found a problem with the last picture. As good as it may be, there is one MAJOR problem with it. Anybody else see it?

I caught it now that you pointed it out...

I noticed it when I saved the picture. That's a common mistake from what I've seen. I heart fanart!

Yeah, that last picture is gettin' kinda old now. There are some pretty *cough* glaring flaws

That's a common mistake with Link as well. He's LEFTY folks!
