Wow these are amazing.
Spire, your ones are so awesome.
I love the deku link one in the prev page, it's so cute!

 

[Luigitoilet]

Awwww! That's wonderful.

 

[Orboknown]

it really is.

 

[MuraRengan]

Just found this on stumble.

 

[Orboknown]

quite nice^ although links(i assume it is link)figure is obscured by the triforce light.

 

[Spire]

And that's a bad thing?

 

[Glöwworm]

Yes, because realistic lighting is bad.

On topic, the picture is quite cool

 

[Spire]

Oh, I started a portrait of Link today. It's actually not a digital painting. I think this marks my first attempt at ever painting Link traditionally.

Please note that it is not finished.

 

[Orboknown]

for how far it is done up to this point,its quite a nice job spire.

 

[titaniachkt]

[Spire]

Hahaha, wow thanks man! Which was the last one you used?

 

[etecoon]

I used your termina/outside clock town pic for a really long time

 

[Spire]

I updated that one actually:

 

[Neon Ness]

How in the world did I not notice this thread before

Some of the most beautiful artwork I've seen in a long time. Spire, I really hope you finish that most recent traditional portrait of Link in particular, I like the direction it's going in so far.

A lot of this reminds me of why Nintendo's been so great over the years, they have a knack for storytelling and making their franchises strange, convoluted, convincing universes that people can interpret in so many different ways like they've done here. Inspiring stuff.

 

[Orboknown]

I updated that one actually:

once again,you defy expectations spire

 

[B-Run]

I updated that one actually:

^ my new desktop

 

[titaniachkt]

Nice Halloween piece Spire.I like the faux traditional look

Here's a guy that's doing some monochrome work (in plastic,if memory serves correctly) for orphaned children and such:

@ Jam: I had a good chuckle after seeing that comic.

 

[Spire]

No matter how many times I look at that Skyward Sword scroll, I can't seem to enjoy it. Partly because it's emulating that epic 25th Anniversary scroll and partly because it feels too assembled: dependent on the former for composition, inconsistent in the styles these characters are drawn, and overall meaningless. I read no true emotion from the characters expressed, perhaps because there isn't a true sense of urgency. Or perhaps because the characterization in SS was so good, the slight alteration of those characters' appearances inhibit their emotive capacity. Impa for instance, looks awful. I fell in love with her in SS, but this isn't the same Impa at all. Link and Zelda holding hands is awkward at best. I want to enjoy this for the work put into it, but ugh, it just ain't quite right.
