Artist's Comments

Whew! Complete at last. The next step from my previous movie poster based on the first Metal Gear game. This is for Metal Gear Solid as you can see from the title.

Holy crap, this took long! Mostly because I did it every now and then in short sessions. I lost track of the hours.

Most people probably recognize the characters and for those of you who don't, shame on you. Everyone knows this game, and everyone has their own opinion on who should play the characters if a movie was made(it is apparently still in the progress of pre-production). This is my take on the matter.

Main Cast:

Solid Snake - Michael Biehn. As it was in my first poster.
Liquid Snake - Michael Biehn. Du-uh! Clone baby!
Hal Emmerich - Chris Gorham. Just the right mix of pretty boy and geek.
Meryl Silverburgh - Tea Leoni. Possibly because I found such a nice picture of her.
Revolver Ocelot - Lee Van Cleef. Ain't no other! He's always been Ocelot.

I also put some thought on some of the other cast members:

Vulcan Raven - The Rock. Mandatory wrestler/actor.
Colonel Campbell - Richard Crenna. Just like last time.
Mei Ling - Zhang Zhiyi. A pretty asian girl. What did you expect?
Big Boss - SEAN CONNERY! Appearing in flashbacks of course.

I used the corresponding actors as reference as well as some game art. Credit for the Metal Gear REX blueprints in the back go to Yoji Shinkawa.

Done in Illustrator CS3 and Photoshop CS3.

Tea Leoni as Meryl!?! But, but, but...She's like 50 or something. I don't approve this.

You forgot to mention who plays Ninja. It could be like in Star wars when J.E. Jones voice acted Vader. Could be the same with Ninja. Some other fella would speak the Ninja's lines when he has the mash on. -"Snake, I'm your father".

Brilliant job lad. A fav for that. Minus for Tea Leoni, no matter how hot she is.

Meant mask, not mask.

Yeah I know she's old and stuff. So are Michael Biehn and Tom Berenger, not to mention Sean Connery. As I said on the description: She's Tea only because of the picture reference. In a real film she'd probably be played by Jessica Alba or something (she seems to get herself in a lot of movies lately).

Oh and the ninja. Didn't really think about it except for a non-mask dying scene(just like Darth!) he'd be Berenger as in the previous one. His voice could be almost anyone thanks to modern technology.

Sean Connery is so bad ass that I wouldn't argue with him if he wanted to be one! Lol!
