Metroid
Post about Metroid!

Dread.

(E.M.M.I. from Metroid Dread)

(I tried drawing digitally again.)

If I’m going to redraw the NES version of Samus, then it feels wrong not to redraw the Metroid too.

I always preferred the incarnation in which the Metroid's had more substantial claws. I also tried to go for a swooping pose for added dynamism.

After doing the NES Peach sprite redesign yesterday, I had to do one for Samus too (I mean- how could I not ).

I’ve included an alternate design that swaps the green out for grey, for some visual interest and improved clarity.

Inspired by BJG’s Mario sprite colour study, I thought I’d try something similar with Metroids.

I chose the Alpha, as I find it more interesting, and I’m happy with how the exercise went, though you might find some of my colour choices interesting.

Ngl I think a Metroid movie would be pretty awesome... done right of course. #GJAsks
