Looks kinda' familiar. Not the same, but definitely familiar. Metroids were the first iteration of xenobiology, y'know, and that looks awfully like their first icons. The unfancy unglowing ones. Could be wrong. I don't have a copy of the unfancy unglowing ones anyway.

Aaaand...

Looks like the old TG-13 metroid icons...

"When you've got a billion hungry mouths to feed, ethics and morality are luxuries you can ill afford."

"I'm not flatchested, I'm just lowfat"

All that is gold does not glitter
Not all those who wander are lost
The old that is strong does not wither
Deep roots are not reached by the frost
From the ashes a fire shall be woken
A light from the shadows shall spring
Renewed shall be the blade that was broken
The crownless again shall be king

.-. I didnt know metroids were ever in the game actually.

As for the deathsquad helment, I was more of showing I can also make fairly intresting stuff out of already existing sprites.

I can post other stuff I did from scratch if its required though.

To be fair, your metroid looks pretty different from the one that used to be in, so it's not like that was stolen or anything. And the way you changed it up is pretty neat.

But! Some things from scratch might be nice.
