Pixel perfect Samus Aran painting on Etsy

by the hammer of Dan Zuccarelli!


I can’t imagine how difficult it must be for a painter to just do nothing but right angles. Especially considering how if those edges aren’t perfect the whole effect is lost.

We don’t see a ton of Samus/Metroid tattoo’s around here, but this one is in a class all by itself.
