I’ve been chipping away at this one for something like 2 months now. Following E3 I decided I want to try my hand at re-creating another one of Metroid Prime’s environments. After some deciding, I set to work on the Metroid Quarantine A room from the Phazon Mines.
I have mixed feelings about how the whole thing turned out. There’s a lot of things I feel could be better (like the cave design) but I feel like it’s time to move on from this project. It was quite the learning experience in environment design, and I think there are a lot of things I would’ve done different if I was starting it today. So I guess it’s a good learning experience, even if I’m a little disappointed about the end result.
