This week’s Featured Fan Art comes to you from the very talented teralilac. What really captivates me about this image is the almost gleeful look of hatred on Dark Link’s face, and the overall mood of the photo.
This week’s fan art comes from zerochan.net, and features a plethora of Links to fawn over. Which one is your favorite? Sound off in the comments below! (Mine? Tie between the boyishly playful Young Link of OoT, and the dark and brooding TP Link.)
A junior high school janitor recently decided that he wanted to spend his time (and possibly school supplies) on drawing a few Legend of Zelda drawings, and even a drawing of Yoda from Star Wars.
This week’s Featured Spotlight is another Link picture, but this time it is done by the artist sakimichan. Sakimichan is one of the artists I look up to on DeviantART due to her level of skill when it comes to digital painting. Her pictures are so vibrant and full of life, making it enjoyable to see a new piece of work submitted.
About the Link picture in general, it feels, to me, that Link seems a little cocky when he’s fighting some monster off the painting. His eyes are serious, but one cannot shake off the small smirk that Link has on his face. Next to him his a tiny little fairy, perhaps Navi? The leather straps that hold his sword in place look almost real and sakimichan put a lot of special attention to his chain mail shirt.
I also noticed that the artist seemed to have combined two Links into one single Link, Twilight Princess (Wii) Link with Ocarina of Time Link. Though the hair style and the clothing resemble Twilight Princess Link, the hair color and the hand that holds the Master Sword are both that of Ocarina of Time Link. Not only that, the fairy companion that flys around with them is reminiscent of Navi; whether or not it is actually the little sprite is unknown.
Kudos to you, sakimichan! You have given us a fantasic piece of work to look at.
