Spectacular job! The lighting is moody, the water splash effect is nice, and the detailing is top-notch. Love it!

Thank you very much!
I'm so glad that the colors worked out so well, considering all I had to work from was my memory... guess playing SM a gazillion times payed off eh?

I can't think much right now and I'm being a taaad lazy. But I'd like to know, what did you use to make this picture?

Turbid-D In reply to sleepstudent101 [2008-11-28 20:56:10 +0000 UTC]

I used ArcSoft PhotoStudio 5 tocolour this piece.
I used the airbrush, blur, and darken/lighting tools only.

The bubbles are nice, they really give her motion as she falls through the murky water. I also like that chasm far below, the the only lght coming from those red lights on the pipes, as well as the illumination on Samus' suit.
Maridia was always my favourite area of Super Metroid. It had that lonely, forgotten feel to it, a feel captured by the dull purples and blues you've used.

Turbid-D In reply to Rakshiv-Fire-Runner [2008-06-01 03:57:00 +0000 UTC]

I originally painted the bubbles but didnt like how they looked so I left the original scetches and painted around them instead. Im glad that you enjoy the colors as I went from memory rather than refrance, I was really going for the unknown dark depths feel and it seems to have worked.
Maridia was indeed a really well put together section of the game in my eyes bringing more to the isolation of the Metroid atmosphere rather than taking away from the original formula.

Juno54 [2008-04-01 23:34:04 +0000 UTC]

The concept is great. The colors used in the sketch are really well chosen and enhances the aquatic effect. Great job.

Turbid-D In reply to Juno54 [2008-04-06 02:14:40 +0000 UTC]

Why thank you, Im glad that you enjoy this piece. I thought that the water effect might have been too subtle but looking at it again I suppose the colors do bring it out.

CrescentDebris [2008-01-14 02:10:39 +0000 UTC]

Hell yeah! Super Metroid is my favorite and just looking at the image I knew it was specifically from there. I said "Super Metroid gravity suit." Nice pic.

I've never gotten that far in SM, are those Metroids floating behind her? I guess I need to fire up my NES again. But anywhoo, The purple and blue glow of the water is sweet! And I really like how you drew the bubbles around her. :3

Turbid-D In reply to jollywrecker92 [2007-07-27 16:10:35 +0000 UTC]

You like the bubbles? nice! I sorta wanted to make them more refined to go with the rest of the picture but leaving them felt like a good idea at the time, I'm glad someone likes that. I really wanted to have an excuse to use a lot of purple and Maridia is the perfect choice. Those creatures behind Samus are little floaty things that inflate an air sack to rise in the water, you can use them as a way to get around with the grapple beam. Yeah fire up the ol' SNES good hunting

Oh okay. I was wondering if they were Hunter Metroids, but then they weren't introduced till Metroid Prime came out. Oh and your welcome!
