I absolutely LOVE this style for Link! 
Is your story posted somewhere now, or is it still a working progress? I'm very interested in checking it out.

It's mostly just an abstract idea in my head at the moment. I have a few musings posted on my tumblr if you search the tag: LoZ TR, but that's about it.

So, what's the problem with that? Link's hair's been brown before.

Ooh! fancy!
Love the more Gerudo approach to Link!
Love how he maintained the telltale Gerudo complexion and signature red hair, but retains his deep blue eyes!
You know something, now you've used such a radically different colour pallete for Link here, it really makes it so painfully clear how damn amazing your grasp on light and colour is.
The lighting and contouring of his cheeks, and the playing of indigos to bring out the details on his brown skin. That's pretty amazing!
You always pic such a great combination of colours to work with - and I love how everything flows so well together, with the contrast of those piercing blue eyes! Was a great touch! Really enhances his eyes.
His hair is just outstanding. I can see how you've done it with a few strokes of different shades - but the effect it has makes it look so complex and masterful!

He looks like he'd give killer bear hugs. I looove his new hair shade and your coloring is just so textured and deliciouuuus. Amazing job!

I love brawny Link over uber handsome Link

Your brawny Link is the only one I'm attracted to 
The strange thing is, the second I looked at this image, my immediate thought was "Zac Efron." I have no explanation. I've never actually seen him in film, and I've never paid any particular attention to him, but it's all I can see when I look at this *weeps*

Chubby Link is the best Link yet! He's gorgeous

I love this. It's so different, the new look is very.... appealing XD. Amazing work with the shading and color blending, I envy your skills on facial anatomy

Whoa, the man's got one helluva a stare. He is technically a man, not a prepubescent/young adult (aged 16-18), isn't he? Besides the point; I like how you didn't go all out full blast red like the Gerudo women have and went instead with something closer to tobacco or burnt orange. I do have one thing I'd like to point out, however. Aren't most peoples' eyebrows darker (or in the oddball case, lighter) than the hair on their head? Just wondering :>
Anyway, Link looks pretty kick ass as a ginger, (even a bit malevolent/mischievous), and it's another really well done piece

That's just the light hitting his eyebrows. I am working with interesting light sources here.
Also also, he is 24 in this story. So he is very much a man at this point. XD
And thank you kindly for the comments.

That would explain it then
Yes! It's about time Link was allowed to grow older in Zelda. I always found it a bit difficult to believe a 16 year old teen (or a twelve year old kid) could take down an ageless super villain.

Link? Badass? NIiiiiiiice. Love the eyes and that slight smile.
