Artist's Comments

This picture was a fight from the very begining. It ranks as one of my hardest and most time consuming. I became obsessed with it. I thought about it nonstop. I daydreamed about it at work, and got yelled at by neglected customers.
It depics the scene in metroid where little Samus is found by the Chozo and is carried back with them. It didn't turn out exactly as I wanted. I wanted more rubble of the ruined earth colony, but for some reason the painting wouldn't allow that. I also wanted it 'feel' like the very first game, which I think it does quite nicely
It measures 11X14 on bristol board and done in my usual watercolor with colored pencil details.

despite being half way through metroid prime, i had no idea what a chozo actually looked like! Cheers

This is a great painting, the glows on its shoulders are nice touches.

Wow, that is kick ass, right there.
Even if you though it could turn out better, I think that it's an awesome piece of work.

Nicely done. I like how the chozo looks very gentle, yet at the same time very powerful.
