...That is, amazing! Wonderfully done, choice of colors = Great! animates smoothly, awesome.

really awesome.
only crit i have is that it looks a little solid.

The animation should have an extra frame where the the tentacles flick a bit more at their end.

The head needs to animate. way to static in comparison to the tentacles.

Ah, well you guys will have to wait till this weekend. I am just taking care of school. Once Friday Rolls around, I'll be back with updates that are fixed up, animated and the head nice and animated.

I like the idea to make her brain surging and the head to glisten. So I'll get to it.


BTW, I will be making other things from the Metroid series into this style.

Expect Zero Suit THEN Ridley. and Perhaps a worthy enemy that doesn't get enough recognition (Such as Metroid Prime)

YOU THOUGHT I WAS DONE YOU F**KERS!! I DON'T THINK SO1! SAY HELLO TO A HUNTER METROID!!




As for Zero Suit and Ridley.... I've been really busy and haven't had enough time to do those two.

The problem is that although it looks good, it still seems pretty flat. The 'skull' does not seem long enough, and the tendrils are too stubby and fat. I suggest you add a slight curl to the tendril animation, in the opposite direction. It looks GOOD!

I recommend that you re-sprite the inside bits on their own, and just work some alpha transparency over the semitransparent gel-flesh. Which should have it's own sheet. It might make for a pretty tight effect. I'm not sure if it's anything you've ever tried before, but I'd bet you're the type to work up to a challenge. Your work certainly makes it seem that way. =o

After replaying all of the Impact Crater just for you, the only critique I can give you regarding that thing's anatomy (...anatomy? form? figure? shape?) is that the top of it's head should flow into the top tendril, where with yours they all seem to be attached underneath it.

Also the Essence's eyes seemed to bug out a bit more in game, (that could be because they glow like the sun... but you may want to play with them...) either way, I like it they way you've presented them. It's more menacing. It fits.

Also tiny lights flow down the dreadlocks, while the Essence is floating.

And it's blue could be a bit deeper. Yours is almost cerulean, while Prime seems more like Persian blue, or Ultramarine.

Well you asked for C+C...

edit: oh yeah, it's awesome as it is just so you know

On the Metroid Prime, there seems to be a bit of a "jerk" (lol jerk) between the first & second frames. I would suggest adding a 1.5 frame.

That's my only crit. The rest looks awesome : D
