Description
I have been wanting to do this picture for a long time. And you guys are lucky. Consistent bad weather has prevented me from going home this weekend. With my car firmly snowed into the parking lot, even traveling around base in this snow is not a casual endeavor. So I'm spending this weekend in front of my computer. Stepping out only on occasion to get some food at the mess. Gawd this weather is horrific.Anyways, like I said, I've wanted to do this picture for a long time. Originally, it was going to be Link and Zero from the Megaman Zero series. But pairing Link against Samus just seemed more natural, they are both Nintendo characters after all. It was easy designing Link all sci-fi like. But designing a medieval armor version of Samus was rather tricky. I was going to go one step further by having sci-fi design of the Tri-force and a fantasy design of the Metroid symbol splashed against the backgrop going off in perspective, but it never turned out looking right.

Looks really good, but Samus' armor looks more like a Kingdom Hearts suit of armor rather than a Hyrulian suit of armor.

Futuristic Link and Medieval Samus? Hell yes.
Made of all kinds of win.
Zelda as a space opera, with Link as an elite member of the intergalactic police/space marines?
Metroid as an epic high fantasy, with Samus as a badass dragon knight with enchanted armor?
Just imagine the possibilities.
I'm really digging the whole dragon theme of Samus, especially the arm cannon.
You should send this in to Nintendo Power or something, cause it's that freakin' awesome.
YEAAAAH

common industry practices dictate that a company like Nintendo cannot use unsolicited game ideas from fans. That being said, a crossover game like this would make Nintendo some mad cash.

Link of the future looks like a sword wielding Master Chief complete with blue holographic sidekick. Good Show!

I know, I was thinking that when I was coloring him in his trademark green. That and his shoulder pad looks kind of Halo-ish. Hey, Link in an epic duel with Master Chief. That would be awesome!

Awesome meets equally awesome. Well done, Sir. +Fave.

Medieval Samus looks incredibly awesome, and the futuristic Master Sword is just as impressive.

Interesting way to mash up the franchises. For some reason "Officer Link" and "Dark Lord Samus" ring in my head, but still nice job!

Fabulous piece! The redesigns are very innovative and professional in nature, and the lighting and colouring are both of an excellent quality. I'm guessing that you're going to get a truckload of +favs (metaphorically speaking) on this piece!
