*wipes brow* ....sheeesh. This is the longest I've spent on a CG... I've been working on it, on and off, for the past 8 or 9 hours. I took breaks to eat, play Smash Bros, and watch my roomate play The Ocarina of Time. I realize this is an outdated look for Link, because uh... Ocarina of Time came out, but I hate the art/character design in that.

Sketch on cardstock paper, CGed in Photoshop 7. AND... you should be proud of me... I DID NOT use a diffuse glow OR any color burn layers on it after I was finished with it. (I usually do in all my pics, because they're usually lacking in the contrast and vivid color categories.)

There's a few mistakes in Link's outfit design, and Navi is supposed to have four wings, not two.. but eh. I'm done with this crap. Time to work on my Sheik picture. Ohhhh yess. Sheik.

Oh yeah, and the title "Navi and Link" was taken. Darn. So I quoted that awesome little Zelda song by System of a Down. "Link... fill up your hearts... so you can shoot!! The sword of powwwwer...!!" etc. Download it!

EDIT: Before this gets any more popular and debated about, yes, the song IS by Rabbit Joint. The version on my comp was apparently mislabled, thanks to babyjami and other deviants for the tip ^~
