Children of Space

I’m not exactly sure why, but there’s something distinctively poignant about artist Brice Madec‘s portrayal of both Samus Aran and Mega Man here.
I think it’s because Samus, for the first time I’ve seen, looks more like a fourteen year old girl with her helmet off, rather than the strong, powerful woman we’re used to kicking the crap out of in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. And Mega Man is no man, but a mere boy, and it’s the most human portrayal of the character I’ve seen so far.

man… mega mans make me sad. makes me think he was some kid in a accident they turned into him…
samus looks like a young natalie portman.
Samus looks like Sansa Stark from Game of Thrones
If you tweak this a litttle, they would be cool character concepts for an Ender’s Game movie.

I thought the same thing. While she’s up there, she should nuke King Joffrey from orbit.
It’s the only way to be sure.
All people were once children, why would they be any different? This is really beautiful, I’ve never stopped to think about what Samus or Megaman’s lives were like at younger ages.
