Redirect to original
Description
I downloaded and started replaying Majora's Mask a while back and this 'un caught my eye.Another attempt of mine at filling out a meme this time the Zelda Race Meme by Ganea-Rebecca (that'd be right here: [link] Β§ion=&q=zelda+race+meme#/d2sq8vu) in full and grainy childish colored pencil. XD It doesn't look as if colored pencil scans particularly well. And I agonized over it more than I most likely had to and still wasn't entirely satisfied with each one coloring aside, but still in spite of that it was as much of a blast as it looked like it would be.
I've seen panel-by-panel commentaries on these before, so...
Goron - I apologize for this one - I first doodled it on binder paper, tried to redraw it onto blank paper, but couldn't get it quite right and ended up scanning the original. X_X Also, I didn't color the... top, but otherwise it turned out cuter than I expected.
Zora - I actually like this one. I'm not sure whether I should take this as going easy on myself seeing as Zoras are my favorite Zelda race or reassuring that I'd make a not-too-bad one. Methinks I'd live in Termina and be the closest thing to a new-waver/beatnik/coffeedrinker that wouldn't be wholly out of place in the Zelda-verse. XD
Deku Scrub - Not fully colored, but eh. I s'pose the face is the most important feature of a Deku Scrub anyway. Holding what may be tea.
Rito - Another one I ended up liking. I look like some sort of scribe/librarian/assistant. XP But I think I did get some sort of balance between looking like me and looking like a Rito.
Skull Kid - This might be the only one I was more satisfied with colored than not, though I was drawing a blank on how a Skull Kid should dress.
Twili - Both a normal and imp form. I think they both ended up pretty enough (maybe too pretty), but the imp was much more fun to make. XD
Gerudo - As opposed to the Rito, I don't think this one ended up looking like me OR a Gerudo. I actually showed my doodles to my brother and he said this one actually looks most like me, which is kinda-sorta heartening. Maybe it's only the Gerudo nose that throws me. *headwall*
Sheikah - I feel kinda silly for this one, though it was fun to come up with. While I insisted on drawing the other panels as myself with four eyes and all, my mind kinda wandered on this one to "A ninja who needs glasses? Now, that's just silly." I suppose it does make some sense - I was skipping around on TvTropes and there was some talking on some page on the idea of the Sheikah working on the Shadow Temple being blinded, but eh. I also suppose I didn't have to ninja myself up, since what they hey the Composer Brothers were most likely Sheikah. But what's done is done.
Minish - I haven't played Minish Cap. X_X I'm not too confident with this one. I wonder what teeny little glasses would be made out of. But it did have the luck of having been drawn small enough to not need to be rescaled for the panel.
Oocca - Also drawn small enough not to have to shrink down. I think I've gotten somewhat used to how Oocca look. Possibly through looking at different versions of the meme.
Fairy - Simple enough.
Tokay - I'm not familiar with them either and drew this one without a reference. I think this one's cute all the same. XD Little lenses.
Kokiri - I tried this one repeatedly and unlike the Gerudo it didn't even come remotely close to looking like me or the race in question. I thought that if I had anything I may as well not leave the space empty, but I didn't bother coloring it. X_X
Korok - I was a little sloppy with this one, both the drawing and the coloring. I think then my pencils were getting dull.
Anouki - With a scarf, even though she is in a full snowsuit. Anouki - simple but cuddly. XD Another one I wasn't too worried about.
Keaton - With specs. Wasn't sure how to customize this one. X_X
Enemy - I chose my favorite enemy species both when it comes to design and role in the games. Which would be Poe. Again, I blanked on a boss-self, and the Poe looked like a mess shrunken down into one panel, so... Apparently I'm a female palette-swap of Sharp, but I enjoyed drawing this one, though I think the coloring process trashed it, especially the clothes.
Have at it if you haven't already, Zelda fans looking for some sort of prompt to draw from - I really would recommend this one. XD So much to play and get creative with.
