Hey there! I’m a longtime Zelda fan, especially BOTW/TOTK, and in my time in the fandom, I’ve never been overly fond of the idea of ZeLink, that is to say, until I saw your gorgeous art and read your headcanons, they are such a wholesome couple and so supporting of each other and ahhh! I ship ZeLink because of you! im always hugely into ship art and seeing what others come up with, but so far you are on top of my list of fav Zelda ship artists, I get excited and tingly whenever I see that you posted 😂🫶

Along with me gushing about your 👌👌👌 art, I wanted to ask because I love your style; how do you go about choosing the colors for the shadowing on the characters, I noticed yours always comes out so perfectly contrasting and vivid! and I noticed that you use different colored line-art depending on the base colors of the subjects, (and I’ve seen a lot of other artists do it too) I have wanted to try it out for awhile, but I haven’t figured out how to pick the right line art colors, and was hoping for some tips if you’re willing 💜💜💜💜💜 again, love your art

OMG @stellercherry you adorable PERSON! Let me virtual hug you!! 🤗 The idea of my art making you receptive to Zelink makes my heart melt! Thank you so much for your kind words!! YAS THEY ARE WHOLESOME!!! I love BotW Zelink because of it's stark contrast with my other fav Zelink, OoT! oh no...i must not think of OoT, i will crawl under my desk again and cry.

So, yeah, I got a few tricks up my sleeve cuz i am actually a Senior 2D Artist in the game industry irl 🤭 I will gladly share with you (and everyone who is reading this reply because you are not to first to ask :) a couple of art tricks I wish I knew when I was a junior artist. I sincerely believe in knowledge sharing and no way i'm gonna be a gate keeper. Gate keeping artists are not cool imo. English is not my first language, and explaining art with words is tedious... i'm gonna ask Drake and visual references to help me out!

yeah.... this makes me realise this Zelink piece could've have way better contrast value lol. Oh well! I really hope this will be useful! Good luck with your art projects, and, as corny as it sounds, don't forget: have fun!! Cheers!!!

hot artists don't gatekeep

I've been resource gathering for YEARS so now I am going to share my dragons hoard

Floorplanner. Design and furnish a house for you to use for having a consistent background in your comic or anything! Free, you need an account, easy to use, and you can save multiple houses.

Comparing Heights. Input the heights of characters to see what the different is between them. Great for keeping consistency. Free.

Magma. Draw online with friends in real time. Great for practice or hanging out. Free, paid plan available, account preferred.

Smithsonian Open Access. Loads of free images. Free.

SketchDaily. Lots of pose references, massive library, is set on a timer so you can practice quick figure drawing. Free.

SculptGL. A sculpting tool which I am yet to master, but you should be able to make whatever 3d object you like with it. free.

Pexels. Free stock images. And the search engine is actually pretty good at pulling up what you want.

Figurosity. Great pose references, diverse body types, lots of "how to draw" videos directly on the site, the models are 3d and you can rotate the angle, but you can't make custom poses or edit body proportions. Free, account option, paid plans available.

Line of Action. More drawing references, this one also has a focus on expressions, hands/feet, animals, landscapes. Free.

Animal Photo. You pose a 3d skull model and select an animal species, and they give you a bunch of photo references for that animal at that angle. Super handy. Free.

Height Weight Chart. You ever see an OC listed as having a certain weight but then they look Wildly different than the number suggests? Well here's a site to avoid that! It shows real people at different weights and heights to give you a better idea of what these abstract numbers all look like. Free to use.

Reblogging my old stuff p3 - Breathe

This is actually not a true reblog I guess (I probably posted this on the interwebs a long while back on a site I no longer really use ���⁠(⁠ ⁠˘⁠_⁠˘⁠)⁠┌ ). I had just gotten a shiny new iPad and wanted to try out procreate for the first time, so went ambitious testing out all the different brushes and graphical options (like the lens flare, gradients, etc). Was also struggling through a really stressful time irl, and so I wanted to make something that captured the things that help me relax and feel at ease. BotW really helped me through those days (⁠ ⁠´⁠◡⁠‿◡⁠`⁠).

So, even though I'd probably draw this very differently now, this drawing has a special place in my works (and my heart).

For the LU Discord server birthday event and final sprint prompt: Family!

I rarely get the chance to join in online events, and am a bit too shy to speak up on large online communities (⁠;⁠ŏ⁠﹏⁠ŏ⁠)👉👈

But having just recently joined in the last year and seeing such a lively and active community, with amazing mods, and with good vibes all around is always awesome to see! And I'm happy to poke my head in every now and then to see what shenanigans the LU fans are up to 〜⁠(⁠꒪⁠꒳⁠꒪⁠)⁠〜

Happy 5th birthday to the LU Discord Server!

Reblogging my old stuff p2 - my favorite Zelda game. I think it was controversial when this game came out with such a different art style, but slowly grew on people over time. I personally always love it when the art goes in a new direction for a series. It keeps things interesting!

Reblogging my old stuff p1 - it would probably take me another hundred years to make something like this again.

Emergency Commissions Time !

Hi !!! I'm currently facing a bit of an issue needing to pay something off rather urgently for family and I'm finding myself a little bit short on cash as this was flung on me quite suddenly and all of my savings isnt enough for it. I'm opening up commissions to be able to pay off the rest of what I need. Anything helps !

Commission Prices here:

DISCLAIMER! all current commissions i have from clients are priority, these emergency commissions will take up to 2 months to complete because they will be behind my current schedule. Sorry again for lack of progress, work has been killing me.
