Description Hero in Action
Link from The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess

Description:
Finished the ink work. I'm not 100% happy with this piece yet, mostly I want to rework the chain mail, it really suck atm.
Check my gallery for more Zelda related stuff.

This is obviously Link from the Legend of Zelda series if there should be any doubt. Yeah, I support manly versions of Link, not the sissy, androgynous / wimp look many female fans seem to give him - it leaves me a bad taste in my mouth. This guy actually looks like he can smite your ass with ease, and that's exactly how it's supposed to be.

Now I just need to pull myself together and actually color this...

Here's the original sketch:

FAQ:

Q: What tools did you use to draw this?
A: I inked this with the brush tool using my Wacom Intuos4 tablet. I used the pen tool to create the chain links and create the chain mail.

Q: How long did it take you to draw this?
A: A few hours I guess.

Q: Can I color this?
A: I do not grant permissions to color my works any longer, the only exception being I already colored it myself.

Q: Can I use this?
A: No. Do not use, upload or reupload without my explicit written permission. If found elsewhere without my permission I'll personally report it to the site administration as stolen.

very nice. I prefer a masculine link too. i loved learning to draw him from the ocarina manual.

Thanks. Yeah, I pretty much started to get more into Zelda fan art by drawing Link from OoT myself. Since then I've done countless fan art. Haven't drawn much fan art pre-OoT, despite I'm a bigger fan of ALttP myself.

Finally, a more realistic looking Link. Well done!

It doesn't. It's just you are too much perfectionist.
