Artist's Comments

Hey folks!

As I mentioned in the Catwoman image, I'm trying to make some pieces with the intention of printing them and selling said prints on my Etsy shop (well, the Etsy shop that I'll soon open), keeping in mind images that I think people might actually buy.

A few days ago, I sketched an image of Link and liked it enough to vector it, and this is the result. In the process, I ended up making the sheath and the shield elaborate, since I decided I didn't want it to just be an image of Link. I thought it would be interesting to decorate his sheath with some fancy Hyrule imagery, and the shield with images of classic monsters from the series and how to defeat them. They are as follows:

Ghoma: Intuition (if an enemy has a big eye, hit it in its eye, basically)
Dodongo: Bombs
Keese: Arrows (or slingshot, if you're young Link)
Octorok: Shield (to reflect the rock, of course)
Deku Baba: Sword (to slice the stem)

I think I got all of the names right. I have a decent memory of pretty much anything Zelda, but if I'm wrong, oh well.

Anyway, I hope you folks enjoy! I'll be sure to let you know when I have that Etsy shop opened and when signed prints of this image and others are available!

Oh, wow, I love everything about this. The colour, the detail, you have a refreshing style too. It's fun to see Link and other characters in such different styles. I truely love the sheathe the most.

I don't like the word hero, it doesn't suit me, I guess you can consider me a villain that fights other villains.~ Don Paolo

Tool assisted speedruns are for pussies.
Bella Swan is NOT a good role model for girls. Ellen Ripley is.

Thank you! I considered just doing the regular sheath from the games, but I thought that might be a bit boring, so I put my own personal touch on it.
