@MaxIsDrawing Happy Mother’s Day!

Chozo lullaby 🎵🐣 --- #samus #metroid #raisedbybirds

@AugustineSeven she's so sad 🥺 wake up you big scruffy man 😭😭

@MaxIsDrawing Probably not this one, but the wonderful @kjr0313 did this and it’s very cute and funny x.com/kjr0313/status…

anyone have a link to that cute animation of Leon and Grace as dogs, where she's trying to wake him up?

@AugustineSeven hope you feel better soon! ☕️🐈‍⬛

Dying in bed at home ill today and my son came to visit his mom to pay final respects. Oh wait, he just wanted my coffee.

@Draptor117 thanks :) it made sense to me that when sending their baby out into the world that the Chozo would include a message to express how important she is to them. And then when she returns and inherits the legacy, that too is written on her armor.

@MaxIsDrawing Augh, I adore that!

Morph Ball -- #samus #metroid #raisedbybirds

nothing in my brain except bird lore and ancient memes

@MaxIsDrawing I was shocked to see the morph ball was the size of a big beach ball vs the size of soccer ball in MP4. ⚽️ Makes more sense, but still…

@Draptor117 It does! POWER: "This is our daughter. Protect her and she will protect you in return." VARIA: [excerpt of ancient Chozo historia/prophecy]

@MaxIsDrawing Absolutely adore this design, but I'm curious if the Chozo text actually translates to anything.

@CaptainDoge1 Thank you ^^ The base Power Suit was designed by the Thoha scientists so it has their writing, while the Varia is an upgrade from their earlier, more military days, so it has the 'warrior' script that the Mawkin ended up maintaining on ZDR.

@MaxIsDrawing So awesome. If I may ask, why does the power suit ball have the more classic Chozo manuscript whereas the varia version has the newer one we see in Dread? Also if it's fine with you, one day I'd love to give 3D modeling your designs a go they're so peak.

@YnkLamia she has one of those seed bells like birds do

@MaxIsDrawing A a fridge. Unless she eats something like protein bars while traveling...

@YnkLamia It'll get there - one thing she must have in her ship is a shower🙏

@MaxIsDrawing Pls tell me you'll have something like that for her ship !! I'm dying to know how it is inside !

@PopcornKn1ght Ha, I'll have to keep an ear out for that dialogue once I get around to playing it 🟠 poor GalFeds can't hope to compete with bird science 💥

@MaxIsDrawing -turn into a ball but that he isn’t ’flexible enough for that’ so tbh u prob got it spot on here, though i still do love seeing people crazy out there theories

@PopcornKn1ght Thank you so much! It's all about the passion 🙏 Feels like a mystery we may never get answers to 😅 I did some further ruminating about it here - freely readable if you are interested! patreon.com/posts/metroid-…

@MaxIsDrawing This is beautiful, love how in depth you go into your passion for Metroids always super clear! though semi-unrelated I’ve always been so curious how she fits into that thing.

@kuroitoribenkyo I played the games and saw bird lore and had to jump in head first 🙏🐦

@MaxIsDrawing See, you blend Metroid with western-style storytelling so well. You find the foundations of meaning (chozo blend tech and spirituality) and work your way up from that, and that makes all your concepts so juicy

@MaxIsDrawing @Cristof27325837 Sigue construyendo a tu samus, que me la voy a robar y haré un Sprite

@AugustineSeven they'll sneak up on ya like that 😱

@MaxIsDrawing HOW DID I MISS THAT YOU HAD PRINTS!?!
