This was part of that Metroid redesign series I started over a year ago. It is a project I would’ve loved to have finished, but taking on these long term fanart projects is something I find very difficult to keep up with, so I’ve had to abandon the project. For those who were looking forward to seeing the project completed, fret not, my brother @nathanandersonart is going to take on the project in a similar vein to his Zelda series, mostly based off the designs I initially came up with.
But as far as my design process for this piece, I’ve always preferred the oddly biomechanical, elephantine, and truly alien design of the original NES mother brain to the goofy and laughable b-movie route she went down in later games.
