Model Roxolana Ridel recreated the image of a fearless bounty hunter on her social networks, causing admiration among fans of the game and cosplay. She evolved into the video game icon Samus Aran.
Samus Aran is a fictional character and the protagonist of Nintendo’s Metroid video game series. Created by designer Hiroyuki Kijima and originally developed by Nintendo Research & Development 1, Samus made her debut in the 1986 Metroid video game for the NES console. She is one of the most recognizable icons in the world of video games and is a futuristic bounty hunter wearing power armor known as a power suit. Samus Aran is often associated with the science fiction genre and is one of the symbols of Nintendo.
In the Roxolana Ridel costume there are no details missed by the real Samus Aran – from a recognizable costume to weapons, the author of the publication “Metarating: Cybersport” points out. Her armor is often described as a combat exoskeleton with blue, red, and yellow colors. It provides her with protection and various abilities such as high jumping, shooting with different types of weapons, etc. Preparing for this cosplay required the ability to work with various materials in order to achieve this degree of realism.
Samus is often depicted as a tall and slender woman with long, blonde hair, usually worn in a braid or ponytail. One of Samus’s most recognizable features is her helmet, which completely covers her face. It is equipped with a visor that allows you to see in various conditions and situations, but in those photographs that we were able to find on the Internet, the model refused it.
Some fans have noted that in various games and other media works, Samus Aran is portrayed in a sexual way. For example, in some games her armor can be destroyed, revealing her body in a tight suit. In addition, some visual materials and advertisements may portray her in provocative or sexually oriented ways. Roxolana Ridel did not miss the opportunity to add a drop of eroticism and femininity to the image.
