Nostalgia

--------------------------------------


Ah! My part of the collab is done I guess

People: '................what collab?!'

End of April my friend *emmil and I decided to do a collab together. I would do the lineart, and she would color it!

People could suggest their favourite characters. Later we made a poll with the characters who were mentioned the most. A week later it was clear Zelda & Link got most of the votes, so... here you go!

Nostalgia

------------------------------


  • For Zelda I used an image of her, standing with a sword in her hand.

  • As for Link I had an image of him with sword and shield in hand.


  • So I took away Zelda's sword (yeah, she didn't like that) and made her hold hands with Link. Changed both the faces so they have a bit of my own 'style'.

    Now the thing is... Link's pose was the same, but the arms look so much different. I had to make up the arms so... that's the reason why the hands look off.

    ... I hope you can fix this problem while coloring this baby.


    ------------------------------


    Enough rambling. Hope you like the lineart so far.
    Took me approx 5 to 6 hours, lol!

    Drawn on white Pergamos Skizzenblok A4 size paper with HB 0.5mm mechanical pencil.

    In the colouration of Emmil linkΒ΄s face is different... I think here his face is much better. But both are very beautiful :3

    Hello I am a new deviant and I always thought I could draw. but looking at some of your work makes me think I cannot draw all. I am not really downing myself I am simply stating that most of my artwork looks like line art and not a finished sketch. I am not really asking you a question. I have no idea most days how to make that transistion. I keep looking online for a explanation in how to do it. But I must look eternally. I think I get bored and I need to take my time working. Again this is not really any sort of questions I am just venting.

    I really like your work though and I look forward to trying more sketch with a hint of color.

    i love this, her coloring was awesome with everything but the fac, she made zelda's face look wired somehow, it was the only flaw i saw in ther coling, and i hadn't realized that you had drawn it till now. I really like your lineart, and her face looks fine here, not so chubby. The details and stuff are so looked after, and the dresss is absolutly beatutiful

    no-one seens to have alot of time these days! i would probably draw alot more realism but i dislike drawing lineart it always looks like theres something wrong so i never finish it. yes im so clever(notcough)i dont know how you do it.. well besides trying but yea you actually inspired me coz i though hmm if i can be as good as this person it might be a miricle but yea it would be such an acheievement for me. i should just stop typing now but i just have to say i love this lineart *coz i love zelda*

    i hope you still finish this work, because seeing you style so transformed by emmil's is really amazing, but i feel they are becoming two different works because of her changes. although i absolutely love emmil's work, i would love to see it done in your style. i hope she wouldn't mind? Anyways, i sound really demanding, but it'd be fully apreciated by all our subscribers.
