Finished (colored) version can be found here!:
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
------------------------------
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.
Steps of the coloring of this fine digital painting, done by *emmil :
Nostalgia - WIP I
Nostalgia - WIP II
Nostalgia - WIP III
Nostalgia - WIP IV
Nostalgia - WIP V

the drawing is gorgeous
about those hands.... don't hit me... ^^
I thought about it... the thing that bothers me the most is that Zelda seems to have her hand in the "wrong" position to hold hands with him... their hand meet at a ca. 90 degrees angle where they should meet at 180 degrees if they are entwined... um..do you understand what I want to say? (my english just istn't enough for these kinds of comments...)
If you say the angle is right the way it is, it could help to make Zeldas fingers of different lengths ... now it looks as if her fingers are all the same size, but if you hold hands that way (I tried in a mirror), the outer fingers are shorter than the two middle fingers.
Um... hope that helped...

I know you said that *emmil will colour it in; but I think it'll be really nice if you do your style as well. It looks really nice as a line-art.
