Description
I went on a nostalgic craze the other night, listening to soundtracks from mario and link, when i came across the 'Metroid Prime' soundtrack. I never realized how amazing the music is... listening to Phendrana Drifts on repeat, I finished this in one day.I am so sick and tired of seeing Samus being drawn in her skimpy zero suit. She is a kickass warrior, and her armor is fantastic!
Time- Throughout 1 day
Program- SAI
Reference- pose, outfit
Character(s) Samus Aran, Metroid (C) Nintendo
Drawing (C) Nadao
(EDIT: added more textures and touched up the shading and pose. added a color overlay 2013-11-21 )

If I had to Choose between playing legend of Zelda and playing Metroid! I WOULD DEFINALLY GO FOR METROID ALL THE WAY, Just Because I get To Play a Kickass Bounty Hunter!

I really love this piece. It's squarely the minority of metroid works that do Samus justice.

...Why is Samus the only character in which the BETTER artwork of her are lower on the popularity list? This is like four pages down from the badly drawn panty-shots and nudes, and it's bloody awesome.

aw thankyou ^^ It's probably the crazy fanboys haha.

Try crazy posers, the crazy fanboys are those of us who like her for who she is instead of just for her looks like all the "fans" who favor defaming crap that tries to turn her into a porn star.
Metroid and porn are both good, but combining them makes them both worse not better.

The Prime soundtracks were always the best of the Metroid series, I thought. Try drawing something to Magmoor Caverns-that would make an awesome picture!! Nice work!

Ugh, I am TIRED of seeing fanarts everywhere of her zero suit and her being naked- ugh, she's a warrior not a sex-kitten! It pisses me off so much because Samus is a true female badass who focuses more on being interesting than "sexy".

Amen. Samus is a warrior, and should be shown as such. Great job for a day's effort!

Very nice, metroid is always good. I'm sure you're always told your works great though, so I'll say If you made it a little sharper it would look all the better. Keep up the great work Nadao

You've drawn Samus in all her ass-kicking glory. Kudos to you, man. Love the pose.
And I agree... Oi, so sick of seeing people draw her as a skimpy anime slut with barely any clothes!

The repeating motif of circles is interesting, even where it makes the pose look a little awkward. The end result feels very sleek, very stylized.

Your description is made of epic win, good madame. A little fanservice is nice now-and-then, but it seems that it's all that most of the fandom draws; it's irritating. ;.;
