Description Well, here I am yet again redesigning Link. I honestly can't remember what spurned this idea on. It popped into my head and I knew I had to draw it, since Link wearing a kilt is just the logical conclusion of all those years wearing a man-skirt tunic with very little underneath.

I must say, the idea of Link talking in a Scottish brogue is quite adorable.

Mmm! Those are such appetizing details! I nom! *nom nom nom*

lol...your designs for Link are always so unique and enjoyable to look at. I love the idea of a Scottish Link, if he could talk I would very much appreciate the accent. The kilt rules all...same with the shin socks. x3

It was mentioned before that his neck looks a little high/thick. I agree, but at the same time, I though you might of given him a more "scottish build". *coughIthoughOfBraveheartcough* More bulky build men.

Awesome sauce design, there. His face is gorgeous. Only thing i would say is that he could use a longer, thinner neck, as right now his shoulders being so high makes him look a bit hunchy.

animetayl In reply to raiyneofgailin [2010-06-30 01:42:29 +0000 UTC]

Ah, ok. I was thinking that since he was holding up slightly heavy objects, his shoulders would be kinda high due to that.

shewolf51 [2010-06-29 19:03:34 +0000 UTC]

Very, very nice. I love all the detail you've added to the clothing. The scuff marks on the boots and shield. The texture of the cloth is done so well that I can almost feel it between my fingertips.

And have I mentioned that I want those boots? Because I do.

After all these years I still can't imagine Link talking, never mind in a Scottish brogue. D:

Well, you and me both. But if he *were* to talk, it might be a nice alternative.

I am enjoying Link in a Kilt. Though I would imagine it would have made the LoZ series a bit more awkward with all that rolling...

Oh wow thats very interesting I really like the design you did on this!
I really like the details and you did a great job on it.
The one thing that kinda strikes me as off is that his one shoulder seems a bit tense and uncomfortable. I would have maybe lowered it a bit. It just looks a bit odd as if he is not comfortable being there.

animetayl In reply to Ouchez [2010-06-29 18:26:51 +0000 UTC]

I agree with you about the shoulder holding the shield. Hopefully I gave him a more relaxed pose with it. Thanks!
