Description My half of an art trade with the incredible

This is Gonzo; One of Tetra's crew in Legend of Zelda: Windwaker.
He was fun to draw, and I regret not using any refs...
But my biggest regret was how much I had to rush this. I'm moving in a few hours, and I need to get to sleep. This is my last night in my mother's house, and she'll kill me if I don't get off the computer. I didn't even have time to ink this...Sorry, Beryl!

This is the other half of the trade, if anyone is interested: [link]
(It's amazing. Click it.)

Wow! Thank you! o__o

I'm so glad you liked it! I didn't expect such an enthusiastic reaction!
I know some people who use markers in much more creative ways than me, and I love their techniques, but I have yet to master them. ^ ^;; I'm glad you like the way I do it. I always end up shading everything automatically, so I guess that's (usually)one of my strengths. o:

I didn't use any refs for the pose/anatomy or the boat, or the telescope...I used the the pics you've done of Gonzo to get a grasp of his design, but I worked on it without sitting near the computer. So, I guess not? Next time I'll do an even better job!

I love it when people love what I've drawn; And I LOVE what you drew for me~.

I just finally went back and got the Fierce Deity Mask and beat MM.
I was disappointed by the credits. ; A ;

You're so welcome!! I love it! ;w; <333

Aw, but just like all colouring media, the artist's own unique style can be just as incredible as opposed to a "set" or "proper" technique. To me, even more so <3 I do love your style, it's very refreshing!

Whatever the case, it DOES look awesome! Again, thanks so much, and I'll be looking forward to anything you else might draw! <3

Ooh congrats! That's always a nice accomplishment! But aw, was it disappointment because Mikau isn't alive? :'D

Aww, thanks! I am trying to remind myself every day that there is no such thing as "good art" or "bad art". Just because someone is a talented artist and can create something so beautiful it blows your mind, that doesn't make them a better artist than someone who just draws with pencil on lined paper, as long as they're having fun doing it. : D

I'm so glad, again, that you like it. When I looked at it again last night, it kind of reminded me of the "toon" shading of WW. xD

Pretty much...I feel like Link could have done something to save Mikau, Darmani, and the Deku Butler's son. If it weren't for the turmoil caused by Majora, they wouldn't have died...so I honestly think it could have been changed, once Majora was defeated.
Other things that disappointed me: It only showed Anju in the credits...no Kafei? Is it because I didn't do their side quest during that 3 day cycle? I mean, I had their mask, obviously...Or does it just not show him?
And I WANTED TO SEE THE BANKER IN THE CREDITSSSSSSSS.

Yes! I love that logic! Whenever somebody tells me they're envious of my "skill" or whatever, I try to tell them things like this too, but they never listen x'D

Ooh yeah, you're right! Aaah man, I just love it <333 I can look at it for ages and the element of 'this is something new and awesome' still stays <3

Ugh I agree! I've always wished those three would come back to life once you defeated Majora D:
But actually, a good friend of mine, *Lenecian9 , came up with the idea that since Mikau actually died in the three day cycle, it's possible he can still be alive. Whereas it was too late for Darmani and the Deku, 'cause they died prior to the cycle. We can dream, anyway. xD
And yes! It is only Anju they show in the credits, unfortunately! I suppose they were just too lazy to create an adult model for Kafei x'D

Yay! Let's do our best to spread that mentality, then!

...you have no idea how happy that makes me. Seriously.

I KNOW. /sobsobsob
It's true...They did die before you got there. I still feel like, if Link were to play the Song of Time again, after defeating Majora, he would be able to see what those 3 days would have been like if the Skull Kid had never taken the mask. Thus, if he went STRAIGHT to Great Bay, he might be able to influence things in JUST SUCH A WAY as to save Mikau.

But I wonder. If that were to happen, would Mikau have strange dreams of dying? Would he dream about being Link, during those times when Link used his mask? Would he have felt some of Darmani's or the Deku's feelings, from being in close contact with their masks?

SO MANY IDEAS.
I wish I had more motivation to draw comics. I really should work on my PokΓ©mon Nuzlocke first, though...xD;;
