Samus Aran - Tumblr Posts
I have an idea for a cast of characters for a Star Wars/Assorted Video Games crossover story, but not an idea for the story itself.
Me’ta the Knight
A Jedi knight of an unknown species just doing his best to survive during the reign of the Empire. He’s surprisingly good at staying hidden considering he’s a blue orb with big purple feet who travels a lot and has anger issues.
Link and F-I
A stormtrooper who realized he was on the wrong side (and also very very Force Sensitive), and the experimental assassin droid he reprogrammed on the way out. Specifically, F-I was designed by an Imperial scientist named Ivo Robotnik to be the ultimate Jedi hunting machine. Obviously she doesn’t do that anymore, and is now very calm and friendly, even if she does has a bit of trouble emoting. Between the two of them, she does most of the talking.
Shantae, Kreem, and Cheese
A Padawan who’s master was killed during Order 66 and is now living on the run, a little Twi’lek girl who imprinted on her as sisters after her mother died, and their pet window cleaning droid. Somehow the tiny floating squeegee is more homicidal than the literal assassin.
Samus Aran and R3-T0D “Toad”
A Mandalorian bounty hunter and her droid partner-in-crime. Samus is notable for the massive arm cannon she built into her armor, while Toad is notable for the fact that his volume control circuits are jammed at the highest setting, which makes him sound like a Jawa who’s arm got stuck in a garbage disposal(both of them find this hilarious which is why they’ve never bothered to fix it). They’re just trying to make a dishonest living in a galaxy that doesn’t give two shits about them, so they don’t particularly care about the war between the Empire and Rebellion outside of how it affects their bank account. At least, they didn’t care until they found three kids(one of which was a half-trained mini-Jedi) stowed away in their hold, and discover that the asshole who ate Samus’s parents right in front of her and then destroyed the Mando clan that took her in has become an Imperial Privateer.
Dr. Robotnik
A Robotics engineer who designs new droids for the Empire. He also happens to prefer the company of droids to his fellow organic lifeforms, with the exception of his assistant Stone. His latest creation is a line of assassin droids specifically built to hunt down the few remaining Jedi in the galaxy, one of which was stolen by a turncoat stormtrooper.
Ridley
A sadistic pirate who’s recently joined the ranks of the Empire so he can get better funding, the fuzz off his back, and some delightfully deadly new toys to play with. No one knows where he came from, what his personal vendetta against a single random Mandalorian foundling is about, or why he’s a big purple space dragon.
can i upload stuff at 2 am? is that alright? idk
some ssb’s fan art i did recently, zelda sketches…
Resisting the urge to say "what if zelda was a girl" or call Samus metroid like some shitty game parody from like 2012 whenever either character comes up in conversation
Nothing better than a classic Metroid baddie
TNS: Samus Aran

John-117: Alright important question for our friendship. When you go to the movie theater do you ask for extra butter or regular butter? Or no butter?
LC Employee: I put Skittles-Not Skittles. M&Ms with the popcorn.
John-117: Alright, I'm gonna remove Employee from this call...
LC Employee: Hold on Please-
(GETS REMOVED)
(ENTIRE CHAT STARTS LAUGHING)
Doomguy: You didn't give Man's the chance to explain himself!
(SAMUS AND NATE KEEP LAUGHING)
Isaac: At my Movie theater when you get your Popcorn, there's like the thing on the side where you can go and add your more own butter.
Nate: BRO MY MOVIE THEATER TOOK THAT AWAY!!!!!
Samus: I wonder why, they're like 'Oh! Here comes the war criminal again!'
(CHAT KEEPS LAUGHING)
How much Chozo DNA do you need to grow wings?
Go for it, Samus!! You’re our icon!! 🌈
Hello, tumblr user. Before you is a tumblr post asking you to name a female fictional character. You have unlimited time to tag a female character, NOT a male one.
Begin.
Finished painting this neat sculpt of Samus the other day!
I just did a fairly simple paint job on this one. Partly because I think it works well for the video game kinda look, and partly because I'd forgotten how poorly my orange and yellow paints cover, and I decided I wanted to deal with that as little as possible. I think it turned out pretty well though, the dark wash I put in the seams of the armour panels really helps make up for the lack of highlighting.
Theres a bit of an attempt at a glow effect in the barrel of her arm cannon, and on the bits of her armour mid-assembly. Its not amazing or anything, but I think you can kind of see what I was going for with it. Having lighting effects beyond just highlighting from above is something I've mostly avoided in my painting so far, but its somethign I want to start playing with. Its a bit daunting, but I think it will be rewarding if I can get it down.
I also realised as I was painting this that I've never actually played a metroid game. The most direct exposure I think I've ever had was watching one of my cousins play one of the games on his Gameboy at christmas. I feel like this is something I should rectify at some point.
This neat model is Samus Aran - Metroid - 25cm model by Printed Obsession. (The print pictured above is scaled down from 25cm to fit with my other prints).
Absolutely nobody: ...
Me: (literally 30 years late to the fandom) Guys have you heard about these Metroid games?!
hi everyone!!!! :D
this was done as a request from my friend, I've never played metroid, but now I want to!!!!
Summer Date Picnic by LunarCherub (Me lol)
Something I did back in November of 2021 when me and my sister were musing hard for this crossover ship. Very proud of this still, even if it’s been almost a year since. <3 ------ Please do not repost. Thank you! (Reblogging is fine though, but don’t delete the comments or remove credit.)
Did a fanart piece of Samus. Hope you guys like.
So I got into Metroid recently--
Siege Shockwave in the colours of the Varia Suit, sorta. Mirrored so the gun matches with Samus’s, but not Shockwave’s. Pic from the TFW2005 galleries, digibash by me.
Bonuses: (dunno why they’re so low quality on here)
