Greetings everybody, sorry for the extended radio silence, life's been a busy one, but know my hands haven't been idle! 💪
I've been having to try different things so I don't burn out 😮💨, and during the month of February I've been tirelessly working on what I've considered to be one of the most fun projects I've had the greatest pleasure to spend time on! So here's what I've cooked up! 🔥✍️
This the current WIP of my latest project. After getting inspired by the release of Metroid Prime 4: Beyond, This is my personal redesign for terroristic and cold bio-mechanical AI, Mother Brain! 🦾 🧠 from the ever iconic Metroid series of games.
The first design is meant to be her "Origin design" from her initial creation to up until the events of the prequel manga era, before the chozo, Grey Voice, would try to end her life, though the most he could do was wound the bio-mechanical AI. This design in particular takes primarily from her appearances in Metroid Zero Mission & the 1989 Dic TV series, Captain N: The Game Master.
The second design is meant to be her "Zero Mission design", after Grey Voice's last stand, the chozo would leave Mother Brain heavily wounded, her face and lips were completely burned away, leaving only her eye lid & brow, her paranoia from the unpredictable nature of fully organic beings growing dramatically, hiding herself deep within the bowels of Tourian, sealing herself in a mechanized housing made of a Zebetite infused alloy, ensuring she wouldn't be so easily caught off gaurd again. This design uses the same references as the "Origin design", as well as added elements from the original NES design of Mother Brain for the "mask" of her robotic housing, as well as the mechanical tusks, these allow for energy protection, so she doesn't have to expose herself fully to attack samus, should the reinforced glass on her chamber be penetrated.
I know I haven't been that active on here, I do apologize for that, and I can't promise how soon I'll update, but I promise not to take so long. Stay safe, drink water, and have a splendid day! (or night!) 👋 >v<
