Description
So, this came to fruition after picking up my Wii in a long time, and fighting Ganondorf the last boss in Twilight Princess.I realised I'd never really done much Twilight Princess fan art, so I guess I'm better late than never!
I'd love to see a fanfiction based on this piece.
I'm not really sure what's going on myself, but I didn't want to show Ganondorf in such a bad light.
He never attempts to kill Zelda as far as I'm aware. So this is his somewhat "softer" side.
Prismacolor pencils on Strathmore Bristol Board, 400 Series 9" x 12"
Please don't ask how many hours this took! I never "hour count". I did this over 3 days...in long slogs.

You can thank me by making more ZelGan art, haha.
Gotta love these two, and you're so great at drawing them.

AAAH this is beautiful!! Coloured pencils can be real bitches, but you managed to do a soft and very clean coloration. The way you did the gold in the background is awesome! Do you remember if you mixed colours for it or if you used a golden coloured pencil?
Now that you say it, he really doesn't try to kill her, by comparing his actions towards her and Link she really experiences his softer side, haha. I wonder why? Maybe it's some old, nostalgic feeling towards her... ah, I'm still sad that their interaction was almost zero in TP ;_; welp. I hope in future games this will be a bigger focus.

i think maybe he does try to kill zelda because hes after the triforce of wisdom, trying to obtain it.

Hmm, I guess so.
I have this wonderful little fan theory that it has to be given rather than taken by force

My favourite pairing in the game.
Very well done!
I want draw a picture of these two since a long time by my self but I never done it.
But I will some day.
Oh! That prismacolor pencils I want to try them but here in Germany it's very difficult to get them. ;-;
We have Polychromos they are brilliant, too.
But I have heard the prismacolor should be softer. *.*

about your decription, the reason he never killed zelda is bcuz he only wants her triforce of wisdom n he wants link to fall into his trap so he can also get the triforce of courage

Thanks! And yes, I find coloured pencils to my my ultimate medium nowadays. I do dabble and create works with a few other things, but I always come back to my lovely Prismacolors!

Unfortunately, it should be while, because my friend will be away for over a month, but I can still send her ideas for it and such. Once she gets back, though, chapter one should be up in no time!

This is a really cool picture!
I'd write a story about this, but I'm already writing a fanfiction in which Ganondorf is one of the main characters. He's pretty hard to write about, because he can, of course, be evil, but he really does seem to have a slightly, almost nice side.

Thanks so much! I enjoy drawing Ganondorf, he's my favourite Zelda character, even in all of his guises!

TwilightKeyblade928 In reply to tavington [2011-05-17 12:34:04 +0000 UTC]
And you did a fantastic job!
Ganondorf isn't exactly an easy character to draw. I thought it was pretty neat, though, that you drew him with his hair down. You even made his hair wavy, which would make sense, because he keeps his hair up in those curls in Twilight Princess. Very clever!

tavington In reply to TwilightKeyblade928 [2011-05-25 06:14:59 +0000 UTC]
Thank you! And yes, he's not the easiest character to draw, but he *is* easier to draw with LESS CLOTHES XD
I love drawing him with long, flowing curly hair

No, he doesn't, does he? The new drawing I'm working on makes Ganondorf look like a right softie. If you like ZeldaxGan then keep an eye out for the new piece I'll be uploading in the next couple of weeks

Fascinating oO
I wrote a FanFic back in the days when Wind Waker was new in the stores. It was set in the "Ocarina of Time"-Timeframe and one of the things I put in was the fact, that Ganondorf never killed Zelda, because he had a soft spot for her *g* The FF even ranked #1 as 'Best Zelda Fan Fiction' on the (at that time) biggest german Zelda-Fansite xD
I'd give you the link, but it's only in german :-/
Even more fascinating is, that YOU inspired me to the FF at that time Guess you remember... I was in total love with this pic of yours and bought it ^^
Awsome to see, you're still drawing Ganondorf-Fanart

Yes, yes I remember you for sure! And you still have it on your wall? Aw I am honoured
I just completed a new Ganondorf and Zelda sketch this evening actually! I'll be working on the colour sometime this week and will probably upload it towards the weekend.
And OMG the drawing I'm working on now *is* based on WW. I actually only just finished it yesterday! Life got in the way and I never really settled down to play it. I'm SO GLAD I DID though!
The scene I've chosen is the bedroom scene towards the end

Hehe thanks! I need to do some more research for the background, but I have the figures coloured now. The background may take a while, but I'm hoping the use of my markers will speed it up a little, and make it look a bit more even

I was in love with this couple after playing this game! You drew Zelda's dress to a T! I've seen so many pictures where her dress isn't even close to what it's supposed to be -.-. I love Ganondorfs hair too. Bottom line is, you drew this fantastically. My friend is a very good at fanfics, I can ask her to write one for you!

Wow would you? That would be amazing! I haven't written for a long, long time! Even though I do like writing, I'd probably suck at it now!
I'm a sucker for details and I always try my best to make something look as legit as it should (like my recent Ganondorf plushie!)
Thanks for stopping by and making such a wonderful comment!

Drivingblind666 [2011-02-26 23:04:19 +0000 UTC]
WOW this looks amazing!
As I said I don't know much about Zelda, but I see that it seems that Ganon is in love with Zelda..? It's just from what I guess.
Anyways, I think you did a good job on capturing their strange relationship. It is interesting to see them together in this way. It is very romantic almost!
Great job on the coloring and detailing. I really like the background with the giant Triforce. And I have to say that Ganon's outfit kicks ass!
Awesome job on this Donna!!

tavington In reply to Drivingblind666 [2011-03-12 15:38:58 +0000 UTC]
Yeah, a few people seem to think that they are in love!
Whether they are or not is entirely up to the viewer. I left it sorta open for stories and interpretation.
I have my own theory, of course
And Ganondorf's Twilight Princess outfit is really growing on me. I think it's my favourite outfit of his, next to the kimono!

I think, it's one of those "complicated" relationships. But I don't see Ganondorf as totally destructive. I have a soft spot for him myself and he's always been a favourite character of mine
