I don't know if this will work but...

... is a pic I did of Samus Aran from Metroid. Using Flash's line tool I traced around a pic from the Metroid Prime gallery. I import this outline in Paint Shop Pro and coloured/shaded/highlighted it. Let me know what you think.

Wow, cool. I like it.

I've played some Metroid Prime on the GameCube recently, BTW .

Not gonna be used for anything. I made it simply because I could.

I use the head for avatars on a few sites. Not here though because the max size is smaller than the multiple copies I have made! I'm NOT making another :P (Yeah I know... I'm lazy)

Great work! I've never really looked at the Metroid games, but someone recently gave me a prod to do so. Thanks for showing us how you did it too. I've been thinking of experimenting with the same kind of techniques.
