Metroid 25th anniversary pic

So yeah, the Metroid series is now 25 years old today, and of course, I wanted to make some type of homage to it. But for the longest time, I couldn't think up of a way to do it, and the only idea that sounded cool in my head was to have some sort of battle between Samus and some space pirates being reflected in one of Ridley's eyes. To be honest though, I'm not 100% satisfied with how it came out, but it was still fun making it. In short, Happy birthday, Samus!

Whew! Finally got the time to fix a slight issue that I didn't notice until some very kind persons pointed it out to me!
