In this Instructable, I will show you how to draw a metroid from the 1986 video game, Metroid.
Step 1: the Top
To start off you first draw an open semicircle. Be sure it's open or your metroid will have a skirt on.
Step 2: the Bottom
After you draw the top you close it off with a line that has two curves.
Step 3: The Brains
Add three dots in an upside-down triangle formation in the outline's lower middle.
Step 4: The Claws
Add four 90 degree curves(middle ones are smaller) and connect them to the metroid with more curved lines.
Step 5: The Goo
To finish the simplified version go inside the outline and draw the same shape but smaller.
Step 6: The Shine
If you want to continue your drawing then add squiggly lines in the center to show shines.
Step 7: The Details
Add some dots in it's membrane and darken the center for a slimy effect.
Step 8: The Caption
This part is completely optional and you can do your own style.
Well, now you know how to draw a character from my favorite video game.
