Hey there, everyone, and welcome back to Artists of Legend, here in the middle of Linktober! This month, as we did last year, we’re partnering with the great folks from Linktober! Every day this month, they are offering Zelda themed art prompts to get your creativity flowing. You can check out more info about them, as well as links to their social media pages, on their website. And don’t forget to tag your artwork with #linktober all this month! If you haven’t started Linktober yet, you still can!

Now, let’s get right on into everything!

Submitted Artwork

All this month, we’ll be taking a break from our normal prompts, and instead, we’ll be focusing on Linktober submissions that were tagged with #artistsoflegend. Each week, I’m struggling to narrow it down from the flood of the absolutely wonderful artwork that you all are sending me. There are just so many good pieces! Now, let’s take a look at some of the fantastic submissions that we’ve gotten in the past week!

Thank you all for sharing your awesome artwork! I’m thoroughly enjoying seeing it! Keep the creativity flowing!

This Week’s Challenge

For the next several weeks, we’ll be having a change from our standard style of prompts. Just like we did last year, we’ll be partnering with Linktober! To participate, pick whichever calendar – or calendars – you’d like to follow; then create artwork for the prompt given on each day of the calendar, and share it with #Linktober and #ArtistsofLegend!

Here are the three calendars:

The Main Calendar

The Quest Calendar

The Chance Calendar

And even if you missed the first few days, you can still participate! Be creative, go crazy, 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!
