I've been in love with the Metroid series since I first picked it up. Samus is kind of a role model for me; she's determined and intelligent, but is still very much human. After beating Zero Mission, I knew I had to make her suit, even if I had no experience making anything like it before.

I wanted to make the suit myself to show how much I loved the series, so I started with a wetsuit pattern and began making my own pattern from that. It took a lot of painstaking alterations and careful designing because I wanted to make it as close to her suit as possible, so I altered a lot of small details, like eliminating the side seams on the torso and moving the seam on the sleeve to a place where it would rarely be visible. I also made my own clip-on ponytail, since I made this before ponytail wigs were readily available.

The emblems (her energy tanks) on the back were tough to pattern, with my limited knowledge of geometry, but they're probably what I'm most proud of on the costume. I've only worn this costume a couple of times, and while it's not one of my newest costumes, I really hope for more opportunities to wear it and meet more Metroid fans.
