Artist's Comments

All those Ironman pictures below to say...

That this whole thing started because I had this image in my mind.

Samus emerging from her powered suit!!!

This latest image is rather crude... for I was using very loose pencil and brush strokes...

Anyways, so, I was imagining how the suit would work. And then, the whole Ironman thingy-ma-bob came up. So, I designed Ironman's suit in a similar fashion. But, I must say, I am more pleased with Samus' suit much much more.

Like I said before, I didnt' want a body suit. So, i had to design exo-skeleton powered suit. But, in order to retain her crazy proportion (check out her latissimus dorsi on all her official art as well as 3d models), I had to make the suit much bigger than how it is depicted in the game.

Also, for this particular image, I tried to keep the desgin of Samus to be more closer to the one from Metroid Zero Mission. But, the design of the suit is still the one I did (very first image from my deviant gallery).

Anyways... Enjoy~!

Are you kidding? I had to go and check out your Samus. It is awesome!!! Mine doesn't look like that because I can't design it like that!

You must move to USA and work with me!

Seriously though... what's up with all these crazy Swedish artists? I love your stuff Genocidal penguin. Time to take the glory of mech design from the likes of Kawamori, Shinkawa, and Hajime!!!

HOLY SHIT! Hot damn man. This is incredable. You're doing what I've always wanted to do. Make good Samus fanart. You've added your own twist and thought everything through. This piece is wicked man.

AMAZING! Thats how I pictured her suit opening up in my mind, and you've done a GREAT job at showing how her suit would open up *seeing as how she can compress* + favorite, definately! I love Samus!
