Zora Link from Majora's Mask, Fixed the face

Did this on paper, then inked it in corel painter. I really like how this thing turned out.

I was gonna color it, but coloring isn't exactly my forte, and I couldn't think of a good style to color it in anyway.

C+C please.

EDIT: Fixed the face. Now it's not so empty

this looks awesoem

Shapes and curves in this are amazing - you even seemed to put some care into the legs, where a lot of artists fizzle out. Love the look of the fishtar (I know that's not the name but I don't care) and especially how the head works.

I would love to see this colored. But I love to see it now. Amazing, especially because it's naturally proportioned.

Thank you very much. I respect you a lot as an artist, so it's awesome to me to hear such praise.

btw, the guitar is called a Zoraxe. At least the real-life Jackson one is...

Aside from the lack of mouth, this is indescribably beautiful. For some reason, the mouth thing really bothers me...

Fake Edit: Meh, looking at it again, the mouth doesn't bother me as much as it did a minute ago. In that case, it's still indescribably beautiful.

The face seems to be too plain or missing something to me, it looks like a void for some reason
I really like how you did the hands in this, I'm not quite sure why but it's my favorite part of the piece
I have to say the line on (his) left shoulder shouldn't extend down so much though, the thick one, the muscle it forms looks kind of weird to me
The left leg (his left) has the sole of the foot showing (or I think it does) but it looks funky to me, maybe the angle of it? Another thing that I'm going to nitpick at is the cloth folding of the erm ... skirt for lack of better terms, and the fin at the end of the head; they look like "stray lines" ... no idea how to explain that

The picture looks incredible; the line thickness changes, the shapes are all done well, a great pose and everything. The details you put in it and just the way it looks overall really amazes me, it's that great of a picture

Looking amazing

the line art is fantastick!!

This is cool! A very nice looking Zora!

YES !, I love it.

Pretty decent job if you ask me, the shape is also very realistic


Gotta love the fish skeleton-guitar-axe thing too

I uploaded one where the face is fixed.

The face I fixed after uploading it (It's fixed now). The line on the shoulder that you refer to, I don't quite see the error in. I'm taking an anatomy class next year though, so my muscle structure should improve greatly. The left leg was bothering me a lot too, and most of it was cropped off from the original sketch. As for the "stray lines"... well... I can't say much about them. I wanna say it was error, but I would be lying if I said I didn't intend for them to be there.

Thank you very much on your compliments on the hands. Panda helped me a little bit on those, reminding me that the fingers would be slightly forshortened at that angle.

That's amazing. The curves and the hands and everything are done so well. I admire your skills!

I did a really quick color mock-up with an 18 brush in photoshop, then messed with it with a 3 smudge brush. Not sure what I was thinking with the BG, but I have it as a photoshop document so it's ok. But in reality, I only colored this because I want to see you color it. Consider it "Motivation Money"

Oh and I think these colors took me maybe an hour, more like 45 minutes. That's why there's a lot of mess around the edges.

This wins the internet.

Yes, the face looks much better.

and Doc Wario's coloring is really nice too.

Holy f-

*saves*

I don't use this very often, but right now, it's the only thing that accuratley sums up my thoughts on this:

And yes, I'm planning on coloring it myself.

Ohhh, really liking the face now
As for the arm, maybe anatomy-wise it is correct (I'm not exactly anywhere near an expert XD) the (... are those called scales) scale things on his shoulder makes it look like that thick line was a mistake, as it seems to go right through one of them
