Read below for more information!

Disclaimers:

A lot of this is still in the concept stage, but plot outlines are already completed or in the works. There will be updates, however, as I hope for there not to be any large periods of time without updates!

This comic is a loose comic adaptation of The Adventure of Link. It isn't for any profit, just for me to have some fun making something! I want to go into writing of my own, so I think something like this will help me get the hang of comic making before working on stuff with my OCs!

This will follow a second Hero of Hyrule, hence the title, instead of being the same incarnation from the original LoZ.

Synopsis:

Hundreds of years after the events of The Legend of Zelda, the secluded Kingdom of Hyrule has slowly built its way back out of a decline caused by the Demon King, Ganon. However, yet another decline appears on the rise under the rule of King Aidan I. Link, an orphaned 16-year-old boy, works in the Castle under the King as a servant under the instruction of the elder, Impa. When a mysterious symbol appears on the back of the boy's hand, he finds himself thrown from his repetitive life and into an adventure all his own: one tied to Hyrule's recent yet forgotten past as well as his predetermined future. Will he be able to restore what has been lost? Will he save Hyrule from a complete destruction at the hands of a returned Ganon, or will the past consume it whole?

General Idea:

The general idea for the comic is heavily inspired by the official Legend of Zelda mangas. I absolutely love them, and The Adventure of Link was my first LoZ game! That being said, I was thinking of how cool it would be to expand upon the story given to us in the manual of the game and see the adventure in a comic form! It will have elements added in of my own, and obviously won't operate within canon (but I'll be sure to throw in some references here and there)! I hope to capture the sense of adventure that I had trying to figure out my way through that game. If you haven't played The Adventure of Link, I encourage you try it! It's so fun and is an underrated gem. The game is a differing style from the other LoZ titles, but I think it adds to the charm. :)

More information to come in the future!

Art vs. Artist season! I made more art this year than I thought I did. Good for me.

One thing I will say about my plans for when I get my laptop fixed is that I want to give each of the Links a little redesign that fits both their respective adventures and the clothing trends of Hyrule seen in their times.

The Hero of the Wild (BotW/Totk), The Ancient Hero (TotK), and the Hero of Men (Minish Cap prologue legend) will be the exceptions as they're already pretty unique in terms of appearance compared to the other Links. I'll still draw them but they'll look pretty much identical to their official appearance.

It's going to take a while, but it'll be fun! Not sure if I'll reveal them all at once or post them as I finish them. I'll figure that out later.

Here's a couple more tentative designs for older Little Links! Now these are still tentative (especially poor Leaf, I don't know what I want to do with the whole fierce deity situation) but uh yeah! I was just going to throw down colors on top of the sketch, I didn't mean to go full line less art style but here we are lol

HERO REBORN

Character Art (Wave 1) + Doodles + Minor Update

Time Elapsed (1): 1 hour 16 minutes, 1 hour 7 minutes, 1 hour 4 minutes

Program: Ibis Paint X

I decided to make some character art for my own reference when drawing the comic. The first of them is Impa and a worker in the Castle named Rosalie (her design having minor nods to Rosa from Subrosia and the Rosa Sisters from Termina). Since Link starts out as a servant as well, I figured they'd be best to start out with. Impa especially is very close to Link, having sort of taken him under her wing upon seeing his potential for... Something (she just isn't sure what yet). The last of the character art is a mysterious being Link may encounter on his quest. I would say his clear design inspirations speak for themselves...

The little doodles were just for fun.

As for the comic itself, I have the prologue in progress with a storybook style going on. The script for the first chapter is almost complete, as well as outlines for the chapters to follow. Overall, it's going pretty well!
