[Why would you do that?]

Maybe the image deserves its own thread, considering its size? I know that a Pokemon image (with almost all Pokemon drawn in a certain art style) got its own thread.

make me wish nintendo would adopt this style and make a good zelda game.

by good i mean fresh and exciting, not the recycled shit they've been dumping on us.

I disagree. I love the style in the picture, but I think that the more realistic style isn't suited for a Zelda game. I think the style looks a lot like Western RPGs.

 

[Haly]

That picture is pretty evident of how much personality Majora's cast had.

I'm surprised I didn't find that while going through the zelda pixiv stuff. Must've been buried very deep.

by good i mean fresh and exciting, not the recycled shit they've been dumping on us.

erm, nah.

I love that drawing, but i disagree about adapting it into a game, it just doesn't fit at all.

I don't like how the females are drawn in there if i have to nitpick, Midna looks spot on though.

 

[Why would you do that?]

Yeah, Marin disappointed me a little, and I wish the goddesses were bigger instead of on that tiny hill, but still, I hate nitpicking over a piece this good.

 

[linkboy]

That picture is absolutely amazing, and would look fantastic as a poster. Holy crap.

Not sure if someone took the Link avatar, but I'm still using it because its so awesome.

 

[Nickovic]

Some avatars from the art if anybody wants them.

Edit: Wait, taken in another thread!

Dibs on this:

 

[ExMachina]

There are some great fanart with weird art styles out there, but this one caught my attention the most:

Anyone know if it is a reference to something?

http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=220198

No idea, but it's a great piece... Thanks for sharing! Saved. <3 Love the high contrast, monochrome with splashes of color, and the super clean lines.

This one's adorable!

 

[ExMachina]

^That is excellent. I love the cutout style that they use in the DS Zeldas for the the openings, very reminiscent of that.

Oh man, there's so much good stuff on Pixiv... I'm just going around "fav"ing liked mad right now, I'll post some in here when I get the chance.

And I found the account of one of my Japanese favorite Zelda artists whose webpage went down... She doesn't have much uploaded though.

 

[Link Man]

Claimed, and thanks!

 

[Chavelo]

Thank you, sir!

Also, GOTDAMN on that Zelda pic... /tear

Do you guys know about these official ones? I really like the stain glass windwaker ones.

Sorry if posted already.

http://www.zelda.com/gcn/downloads.jsp?page=4


Hey guess what, it seems like Nintendo stopped hosting the large files, I have most of them(in full size) if interested.

 

[WillyFive]

What's amazing about that huge picture is seeing all the characters with the same art style! The guys from Wind Waker and Spirit Tracks right next to the ones from Twilight Princess and Ocarina and Majora and Link to the Past all in harmony.

that image...

...wow.

also, I just realized that I didn't recognize most of the Twilight Princes characters. even though it was the last console Zelda I played.

There are very few of them in there though. Most of them are from other games, and the TP ones are kept in the background.

 

[LordPhoque]

mine, thanks !

This one's adorable!

That's so fantastic. As impressive as the montage piece is, I feel like this one manages to sum up the Zelda games better. At least in terms of what it means to me.

 

[Platy]

The only think missing in this piece is Sheik, but otherwise, perfectly awesome

 

[ShockingAlberto]

One of the most incredible things about that art is that it loops literally perfectly

 

[udivision]

That picture doesn't even follow the timeline.
Fail.

 

[linkboy]

That picture doesn't even follow the timeline.
Fail.

The games don't even follow the timeline. They bounce around more then a kid on a trampoline.

 

[Chavelo]

That games don't even follow the timeline.
Fail.

Fixed...

And I think it's my civil duty to repost that image once every a new page (GAFGold - 100 posts) in this thread is created. For great justice.

 

[Dark Phoenix]

Love this image, was surprised when I didn't see it in the thread yet.

Also, my jaw dropped when I saw the giant image on the last page. Amazing.

 

[Typographenia]

That anniversary image by AG+ is insane. I've been marveling at it for the 20 minutes. Just a true beauty and easily my favorite zelda image ever now.

I thought I would contribute a few I have found-

The last one gives me a John William Waterhouse vibe, but that might be my own personal bias speaking.

Awesome! Looks like the style of luc latulippe!

 

[AcciDante]

Yoink!

Hope nobody took this one already!

 

[Ellis Kim]

One of the most incredible things about that art is that it loops literally perfectly

:O

I didn't even notice that.

Also... is there a point in Oracle of Seasons/Ages where Syrup becomes young? Is that really supposed to be Syrup?

It's actually Maple, her granddaughter.

Please tell me you have links to the artists websites or pages for these two. I love them so much!

That makes a lot more sense! lol

 

[apana]

Alright I got this one. Unless somebody got it first.

 

[Ellis Kim]

&#3232;_&#3232;

Umm...yes.

Here is some cuteness. Full size here.

Wow, I love this artist. The FF stuff in particular is so cute and endearing. God damn. Fucking blows me away, its so good

Trying to figure out the pixiv account was sort of a hassle with how safebooru is, though.

Edit: off topic, but omg at Aki doing thriller in this FF collage XD

Edit2: I am fucking DYING from an overdose of CUTENESS. This artist's cute drawings kill meeeeeeee. Fuuuuuckkk.

Spoiler

Relm x Hope lolz

 

[Altazor]

It's a different type of art, but I just love this particular performance of a Zelda medley - especially the Dark World section. Short, but really really epic.

 

[Typographenia]

Please tell me you have links to the artists websites or pages for these two. I love them so much!

I don't have them on hand, but I'll see if I can find the original artists. I'll PM you if I do.

Edit: links added to original post.

 

[Platy]

some cool pics i found that were made for the anniversary !


By the scott pilgrim dude !





Also, this collab with fanart of every zelda major game wich needs to be seen in full view

lol I was gonna make a joke right before you edited.

 

[apana]

The deviant art people need to step their game up. Pixiv is more interesting to me right now.

 

[NaviLink]

Is there an even higher res version? I would frame a print of that if there is. Holy shit, it's beautiful.

Seconded. I'd love to have this framed, it's incredible. Apparently you need an account on Pixiv to see the high-res version, but I suppose it's a .jpg.

 

[ExMachina]

Seconded. I'd love to have this framed, it's incredible. Apparently you need an account on Pixiv to see the high-res version, but I suppose it's a .jpg.

For anyone wanting an even larger version of AG+'s epic art, sadly the large view on Pixiv is the same size (1200×6566) as the mirrored file on steam-punk.net... It might have slightly less compression (7mb filesize opposed to 5) though.

 

[snoopers]

Some more Pixiv finds... All images are linked to the original page, so click if you'd like to see more of each artist's work.

This is... wow.

This is... wow.

Yeah, click on the picture. The artist has more interesting stuff.

Hope nobody took this one already!

Actually I took it early this morning from the other topic.

 

[CrazyDude]

Love this image, was surprised when I didn't see it in the thread yet.

Has an Okami vibe to it.

I was shocked Link's Uncle from LttP didn't make an appearance. Everyone else did (including Link's Mom from OoT who doesn't even have a cameo).

Still... awesome. If anyone tracks down the artist I would totally buy a print of it.
