The Epidemic of the Metroid

I've always loved the NES Metroid's title screen logo. Something about it is just great. So this started out as a "what if" kind of thing. I really just wanted to work with the logo in some way. So I replicated it in vector shapes, and blew it up. I tried a few different things to fill in all the space, and nothing was working, so I drew an actual Metroid. From there it evolved into a sort of poster for one of them "motion picture" things. Haha.

I was going to include the new logo I made a while ago, but it didn't really work anywhere after I added the text at the bottom. So I just stamped my name on the curve of the Metroid's blobiness.

All in all, I think this took about 6-8 hours total, but most of that was trying different things that aren't in the final piece here. Done in Photoshop 7. Comments and fav's are good stuff.

Enjoy.
