It's nice :) I know from the windwaker games link is cartoonish so this suites it well. Try adding a bit of shading for a 3D look but I like it :) Btw the sword blade is see-through ;)

Haha yeah i know it is :P lol my art teach for the past 2 years isnt really um well a good teacher so i had to learn everything on my own. Shading is what im working on now :) Thanks for the input though

ahh good old Link, it's a rather good drawing fella you've done well with the features like his hair. My only complaint would be his tunic looking more like a dress, his belt shows no impact on making it tighter, but i suppose it's just cartoon Link not super awesome real Link from Ocarina of time!!

This was your reference, right?

I'd say you should pay attention to...

The belt buckle: It has some thickness, so it should stick out from Link's body somewhat;
The shield: is made of parallel, regular pieces of wood. Yours shows 'twisted' parts. Don't hesitate to use a ruler to draw straight lines;
The proportions: Link's eyes are larger, and his hair longer, on the reference picture;
The cleanliness of your lines: parts of the left hand can be seen through the handle of the sword, and there is an unexplainable thing hidden behind his arm. Always have a rubber/eraser nearby, and have no fear using it whenever necessary;
The collar: doesn't seem properly centered. I'd suggest drawing first the "median line" (the line marking the middle of Link's chest) and use it to correctly place the "V" of his jacket's collar.

It is not bad at all, but I think you rushed through your drawing. Take more time to estimate the size of elements with each other, to get consistent lines and to stick as close as possible to the model. Always erase when something starts to seem wrong - erasing and correcting is part of every normal drawing.

Hope this helps!

Lol Well as i said in the first post i've alwasy had a crush on link :whoops: haha

[Clawhammer]

Very nice. And hey, at least you have a crush on a guy with a sword. I judge a man by the sword he carries. :)

[tomboysk8r1314]

Haha yes very true xD

Luigi and Link are my two fave nintendo characters

[chris4]

Link!

[Suicune]

It's very good. But not the best. But it's Link so bonus points! I simply love Wind Waker. Ocarina of Time was okay too, but I like Wind Waker's more lively feel.

[Weeping]

Well, I dunno really.. xD Since you used the camera flash it's not very clear.. xD
Try taking a photo in natural light or anyways a lamp instead :)

[OnceMoreWithFeeling]
