Hello everyone! How’s it going this week? Welcome back to Artists of Legend! I was looking through some of my previously-used submissions earlier today, and I was reminded why I love this series so much. It’s so cool to see the work of such talented people, and it’s an honor to be able to feature what they do. Thank you to everyone who submits artwork for helping to make this series awesome! Now, let’s get right into everything!

Submitted Artwork

The announcement of Link’s Awakening coming to the Switch during last week’s Nintendo Direct was quite the flashback, wasn’t it? And that was the source of last week’s prompt – we asked you to create artwork of Link’s Awakening in celebration of it being remastered for the Switch. We have only one submission this week, but we also have plenty of other submitted artwork to share!

Our submission for last week’s challenge is by rottencandyapp1 on Twitter:

And now, for some more great submitted artwork!

This week, the Korok-lover ambershirelle from Instagram struck again! These first five pieces are all submissions from here:

This Week’s Challenge

I was recently informed by Ambershirelle on the Linktober Discord server that it is Fairy Month; so, we’re basing this week’s challenge on that! This week, we’d like you to create artwork of the fairies from the Zelda series. Fairies have existed in the franchise since the very first game on the NES. While that may be the case, they’ve had a great variety of appearances, with everything from the creepy Great Fairies from Ocarina of Time and Majora’s Mask to tiny orbs of light. Choose whichever design you’d like for you artwork, and have fun!

As always, here are the rules for artwork in this series.

• Keep things clean. Zelda Dungeon should be safe for all ages, so don’t go creating foul images, anything too risque, or anything NSFW.
• Stick to the main idea, but feel free to be creative with it. If you want to draw a specific scene from one of the games, go ahead; if you want to come up with something similar to a scene from one of the games with a twist on it, that’s great too.
• Any form of art is acceptable as long as it somehow displays the mentioned scene. You can draw with a pencil and paper, paint on a canvas, make pixel art on a computer, weave, carve, create the scene with Zelda figurines, even do metal work if that’s your thing. Go crazy!
• While you can submit your work in the comment section, the preferred methods are putting your work in the comment section here on Zelda Dungeon, or Tweeting or posting on Instagram with #artistsoflegend. It makes it easier for me to find the art when you submit it.
• Do not steal art from someone else.
• Do not insult other people’s art. Peaceful critiques and thoughts are one thing; direct insults are another.
• There’s no pressure. Just have fun!

I look forward to seeing what you guys create this time, and I’ll see you all next week!
