Description Requested by my love~

The Magic Armor of Twilight Princess was my favorite suit. I just hated the fact it took like, 3-5 Rupees per second to wear. I think taking rupees instead of hearts while wearing it was a clever idea, but you shouldn't get taxed just for standing around... Anyway, it looked awesome and I had Ryo wear it before when he was smaller in my drawings. Then I kinda forgot about it. xD

Zelly said TP Link just didn't capture her heart as much as OoT Link did. She wanted to see Link in the Magic Armor, but OoT Link, so that's who I have here. Personally, I think it fits OoT Link better. xD I added my own twists to it to be more OoT-ish.

Golden Gauntlets instead of bracers
Canvas-Top Boots instead of thin boots
Kokiri Symbol on the tabard
Farore's Symbol on his stomach area
Royal Eagle on chest
Most of the Tiara under his bangs instead of over
Belt buckle being like OoT Zelda's tiara
Did my own designs on the hat

The pose implies a shield is being held, but if I drew it in, you wouldn't see the gauntlet. He's currently in battle, so I have him flashing the eyes of the foe with sun reflection. I also added some muscle to Link. Unlike what some people say about him being scrawny, you gotta have some muscle to wield a sword so easily. Not as big as Ryo, but still.

I hope you all enjoy this, and Happy Resurrection Day!

Absolutely incredible! I can totally see him and Caroline (in her own armor) fighting evil side by side!

Once again, another great job!

I only have one issue with your art and its this: notebook pappppper. ;-; I hate how those lines stick out so much against your gorgeous sketches. D:

Yeah, I kinda figured that would get in the way of my stuff. But the truth is, notebooks let me file my art in a more clean way and the lines actually help some in measuring proportions and stuff. I've gotten used to it.

Although I wouldn't call my sketches gorgeous.

Awesome job! I love the changes and especailly the Farore's symbol and the Kokiri symbol too. Adding Zelda's crown as a belt is also cool.

Great job in designing the hat! ^_^

"Zelly said TP Link just didn't capture her heart as much as OoT Link did."

That's EXACTLY how I feel!
The armor looks wicked cool on him! Nice how you added some of the OoT symbols and armor. And what you said about the muscles...I agree!

'Cause, let's face it we love OoT Link. He just rules. ^^ He set the hero standard the other Links have to live up to.

^^ I love adding my own touches. I can't let well enough alone, especially when the exact details are fuzzy so I start improvising. x3 Repeating outfits is hard for me to do 'cause most times the details were made on the fly. So copying that is difficult. xD

Link's gotta have strength. ^^ And if you look at the shading on his polygram body, he has muscle tone. ^^ Plus, he's not a chick magnet for nothing. xD

This is incredible!
I love this piece, it resembles that OoT is still in our hearts! Also, the design of his armour is sweeeet~!

I agree with =Lady-Zelda-of-Hyrule , OoT Link was more...special let's say. He was the first Link to charm us with rather beautiful 3-D visuals (well at the time), where as Link in TP, although he still has a place in our hearts, he wasn't as charming and impressive as Link in OoT. Twilight Princess is still a great game though

The emblems of Farore and Kokiri add that extra bit of class and personality that OoT Link has

I really think you and =Lady-Zelda-of-Hyrule are a perfect couple: You are passionate about art and what you do, and you are outstandingly excellent at it!

All in all, a perfect drawing!

OoT will always be in our hearts. ^^

Plus, in future games, OoT Link is the legendary hero everything points to. ^^

Gotta love the guy. ^^

Art, what we do and each other. -__^
Thank you! ^^

I'm no perfect drawer, but thanks. ^^

Eeee~! <3!

Darling, that's just wonderful! It really does suit OoT Link so much better. I liked TP's Link, but he just doesn't compare to OoT's - in my opinion, anyway.

I love how he has the appropriate symbols on the outfit - Farore's and the Kokiri one, I mean. They match him perfectly so it's great to see them on there. ^^

I knew you'd do a great job with your own touches love, you never disappoint me with that. ^__^

Thank you darling! I really, really love this! ^__^ <333

x3 Happy squeal, I hear~

^^ I like it better on him, too.

The Kokiri's symbol I thought was the best on him. ^^ I'm glad you like it there. One of my touches~

Do you like my messing better than the original sometimes? =3

You're very very welcome~ ^^
