Artists of Legend: Linktober Week Four
Posted on October 28 2023 by Heather Beard
Welcome to the home stretch everyone! There’s only a few days left of Linktober, but we aren’t stopping now! Everyone knows the drill by now so we will just jump right in.
Day 22 saw creators looking at their favorite “NPCs” from the Zelda series. Purple (@pastelpurplepictures) on Instagram gave us an illustration of the Old Woman from Skyward Sword.
Day 23 everyone looked at the youngest characters of the Zelda universe with the prompt “Child/Children.” We showed off some of Erin’s (@flutefemmeart) on Instagram writing earlier in the month, but now take a look at her drawing of a child from her upcoming fan-fiction.
Day 24 might have been one of my favorite days to see art from! “Korok/Kikwi/Kokiri” was the prompt and there were so many cute entries! I wish I could share them all! Liam (@OutsetEmporium) on Twitter graced us with a magnificent sculpture of Wind Waker style Korok piggy rider. How cute is this?!
Day 25 had us all chasing “Fairies” for the prompt. Blue (@bluejestie) on Instagram gave us a more realistic look at what Navi might look like as a more humanoid figure. I love the concept and the chosen colors!
Day 26 for the Shadow Calendar saw another fan favorite character of “Skull Kid.” I thought it would be fun to share a piece of my personal work! You can follow my artwork here if you’d like. Skull Kid has always been a favorite of mine to draw.
Day 27 got a little bit thorny as the Main Calendar looked at “Plants/Forest” for the prompt. Anna (@La_bella_Anna) on Twitter gave us a double spread Great Deku Tree from Breath of the Wild. The colors here are so beautiful!
Finally to round out the last full week of Linktober, Day 28 saw “Light/Sparkle/Bright” as the prompt for the Main Calendar. laine-o (@LaineO_Art) on Twitter shows off what my be my favorite piece I’ve seen from Linktober this year. I’ll let the artwork speak for itself. I love the take on the prompt.
There you have it! This was our last full week of Linktober. Honestly, I’m a little sad for things to be ending, but it just means we all get to look forward to next year. If you’ve missed out on the majority of the event be sure to read up all about Linktober here. We have a few more days left; I’ll post the last round up of artwork next week. Be proud of what you have accomplished during the event this year. Everyone has done amazing!
As always, be sure to share your artwork with the hashtags Linktober and ArtistsofLegend for a chance to be shared. Do you have a favorite piece from this week? Are you already looking forward to next year’s event? Let us know in the comments below.
