Description So this is actually an older piece that I started quite a while ago when I didn't see this scene hardly at all on the internetz. Now it's all over the place and almost every Zelda fan has done one...but oh well I decided to finish it anyway. Hope you like it

I've been seeing a lot of Water Temple / [this specific] dark Link art recently... this was always my favourite temple and I'm enjoying all the attention it's been getting! x)

Good job on this! Nice poses and the water and mirage-style image of the room are wonderfully depicted.

Thank you very much! I was hesitant for so long to finish this simply for the reason that this scene was getting more and more popular, but I'm glad you like it.

I like what you did with the water its very well done but Dark link appears a little to tall in comparison to link. I get that Link is crouching down while shadow link is attacking but both their legs are bent so I don't think that Dark link appear tat much taller than Link. Other than that, this a great piece of art especially because you're one of the few who didn't this fight into a yaoi.

Thank you Yeah it was strange because I used the same model for both (seemed to make sense) but I noticed that as I went along too. The reference looks like that too. A good example that even when one has reference they should take more artistic license when something looks a little off to them. Oh well. Thanks again.

I love Dark Link but hated fighting him >.>
Especially when you slash and he jumps on the Master Sword, the tyrant. <.<
Nice job!

Astralstonekeeper [2012-09-26 05:40:54 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, you're right, seems like every Zelda fan and their brother has done a variation of this battle. Sadly a lot of them turn into a sadistic yaoi scene.

I really like how you captured Dark's emotionless demeanor. Most of the other similar pictures present him as a cunning evil sexy thing, when really he's nothing more than a shadow. Link, by contrast, shows a great deal of emotional and physical struggle that can only be portrayed by a real human/hylian. Though I do think he should be in his Zora outfit to make the scene fit more, this plays well with color composition so it's not that big of a deal.

iangoudelock In reply to Astralstonekeeper [2012-09-26 15:36:32 +0000 UTC]

Thank you, yes I never really understood why he is depicted as very cunning etc...I guess maybe in Four swords...but that's different. Thanks for commenting on that I was actually thinking of doing the zora outfit in an alternate version. We'll see Thanks again so much I really appreciate it!

Astralstonekeeper In reply to iangoudelock [2012-09-28 05:43:46 +0000 UTC]

I guess since he's depicted as the "evil Link" and Link is thought to have at least enough intellect to figure out the puzzles in the game, that would translate to manipulative and cunning. But, that's only fan speculation.

You're welcome~! maybe the Zora outfit would look better? or worse, who knows :0
