Description
This guy was long overdue. I think I had his pattern all ready for over a year and I just got to making him now. It is the 4th time I've made a Link doll, but I believe it's also my best one.
This is him in his Twilight Princess design. I tried to get as much detail in as I possibly could, which is why there are some many photos in this collage. I think a full view is best to see all the details. I do need more work with shoes, as his boots ended up coming out way too pointy. His tunic could have been a bit longer as well (especially in the back), but overall I'm very happy with how he came out.
I tried to give the illusion of chainmail by overlapping 2 layers of mesh fabric and painting it silver. The mesh didn't quite overlap very well (you can't really see any alternation in some areas) but overall I think the effect worked. I hand embroidered all the top stitching designs in the tunic, hat, and arm guard. His hat is removable (as you can see, Zelda stole it from him in that last picture there). The bigger pouch on his belt is big enough to hold a tiny bottle (never know when you'll need a red potion).
I got a little carried away with his photoshoot and I threw my Zelda plush in a couple of them. The Zelda plush was made ~2 years ago and can be seen here: s2plushies.deviantart.com/art/…
I think this Link came out loads better than the one I made previously: s2plushies.deviantart.com/art/…
He's completely hand-sewn, made from deersuede, faux suede, vinyl, mesh, and fleece. His belts have tiny buckles. His face was embroidered completely by hand.

Wow, I'm really impressed with how much you did for him. I also shows you're getting much better in over the course of only a few years, much more this year alone with how well you did my dolls and other commissioners' dolls as well recently. I love the little pocket detail with the bottle as well as everything else, it really makes this doll extra special in a way.
