Description Been thinking a lot about the metal clad bounty huntress lately and decided it's time for some fan art. Pretty happy with how she's turning out so far, working on the other half which will be a wave of enemies climbing up after her but thought i'd throw it out there for critiques before i sit down and start to color her. Planning on really pushing my skills with this one, see just how crazy i can get in Illustrator, so hopfully i'll end up with a pretty sweet piece of Samus art, maybe something i can print and stick up on my wall . But if you happen to see any flaws, i'm sure there in there, please point them out, i'd appreciate it very much. And while i'm on the topic, go check out MetroidMetal.com, they've been my musical entertainment while envisioning much of my work. If you're a big Samus fan i think you'll dig the music, all free to download, and if your really hardcore you'll buy a shirt! Enjoy.

wow great job with the blast, it looks really good.

if you want really picky, the spike on her right knee seems a good bit bigger than the other one. maybe that's just the angle.

can't wait for the colored version. ^.^

rebel-penguin In reply to mermaid-in-disguise [2005-11-19 18:37:31 +0000 UTC]

I was thinking i might shorten that spike a bit too, thanks for pointing that out and a big thanks for the comment

CookieeMan [2005-11-16 17:41:12 +0000 UTC]

Very nice piece once again Rebel-Penguin. I only have one thing I'd maybe suggest changing. Where her thigh meets the knee on the left leg, I think the thigh should be widened just a tad bit. It just looks like a tight squeeze there for her leg, heh. I really love the blast, and can't wait to see the rest of this one.

AH HA! I knew there was a flaw and you found it, gold star for the cookieman. Thank you for pointing that out, very true that is an extremely tight fit and i will fix it immediately. Thanks a bunch

Hehe, no problem. I want this thing to turn out perfect for you, and I really can't wait to see it in the end. (btw, it's cookieeman, with two e's, heh).

I just read that you wanted an Advanced Critique... well let me inspect it carefully! I really can't find anything wrong, it looks like you spent some time on her. good job!

i saw this before it was posted on DA... over Shanna's shoulder of course! phil... if I didn't know that this was a girl already I would completely assume she was a MAN! other than that, i love her! I wish I had a arm gun hand thing! I would be blasting people on the freeway... heck YES! can't wait to see the colored version! (<~long post)

rebel-penguin In reply to strugglingartist [2005-11-17 02:05:06 +0000 UTC]

LOL blasting freeway drivers sounds like a good idea, very good idea. She does have a manly outfit but one of these days i want to draw her again, more curvy, make sure you know its a chick . THanks for commenting

Ooo, Illustrator. I've seen some pretty crazy-cool stuff come out of this program and I'm sure you can do it justice. The position of the left arm looks like it's bracing the right arm like it's injured or something. I don't know if that was the intention but if it wasn't, I would suggest you move the left hand down a bit more so it's maybe touching the elbow/gun region. I think if you do this, it will look more like she's bracing her arm from the blast of her laser gun. If this was not your intention then um... great pic.

rebel-penguin In reply to adherent [2005-11-17 02:02:33 +0000 UTC]

I actually tried that and could not for the life of me get it to look right, always came out looking like her arm was streched or something so i moved it up and well there it is. I do agree she does look injured or something but i think unless i fix that arm it'll just stay that way. Thanks for the comment, very much appreciated.

I can't really see any negatives in it, maybe that's just how I work but I really love the action and the pose. The energy blast is a nice touch too

Thanks, i'm quite happy with her pose, usually it's so hard for me to draw dynamic poses but i think this one's turning out pretty good. Thanks for the input.
