Artists of Legend: Sidequest Week
Posted on May 23 2019 by Adam Barham
Howdy! Welcome back to Artists of Legend again this week! Summer is almost upon us, but for now, it’s Sidequest Week here on Zelda Dungeon! What have you thought so far of all the different perspectives of the optional but (usually) enjoyable parts of Zelda games? We’ll get back to Sidequest Week after we share some of the fantastic artwork that’s been submitted to us.
So, let’s get right on into everything!
Submitted Artwork
Last week, we asked you to create artwork of a Legend of Zelda landscape. Unfortunately, we didn’t receive any artwork for this challenge this week. If you wanted to submit to us but were too busy to, don’t worry! We all get busy sometimes; you focus on what you personally need to, and we’ll be here when you have the time. In the meantime, here’s some fantastic artwork that we can share!

Thank you all for sharing your awesome artwork with us! Keep up the great work!
This Week’s Challenge
As I mentioned earlier, it’s Sidequest Week here on Zelda Dungeon! All this week, we’re looking at the various sidequests that have been available throughout the Zelda franchise. Therefore, this week, we’d like you to create artwork related to a sidequest. There are an immense amount of options for you to choose from; I’m interested to see what you come up with!
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!
