I can’t quite remember when Metroid became such a significant part of my artistic journey, or how much this masterpiece inspired me to become the artist I am today.
I created this piece inspired by Super Metroid, trying to capture a bit of the feeling of isolation and solitude the original game gave me when I played it for the first time.
I remember arriving on planet Zebes in this ship, with ambient rain, thunder, and a low, eerie soundtrack — a strange atmosphere that made it feel like something was waiting for me on that seemingly empty, lifeless planet.
I tried to bring a bit of that emotion into this render and a bit of my love for this franchise as well.
