Last one. This more exemplifies how my drawing skills improved. The main interesting point is I did almost zero underdrawing, and I could compensate for any changes. I would start drawing, make what seemed to be a stray line, and somehow integrate it later. Any difficult pose would require no planning ahead, and fall into place as I completed it. I found myself making better leg proportions and more fully-depthed torsos automatically. And again, each separate image took about 6 minutes tops, usually on a full-page.

I've always liked the Legend of Zelda series, but I tend to suck at 3D-world games, so the only ones I've played are the earlier games, and the recent top-down ones (Spirit Tracks, Phantom Hourglass).

One of the things they've lost in the recent top-down ones is humanoid furry type characters. Initially they had plenty, although they were just silly little pixelated sprites. Rather than use your imagination, they filled the instruction guides with more realistic interpretations of the characters. It seldom matched, but that's the way video games were back then, you young whippersnappers. Naturally, being enemies, they were usually made to look tougher than they did onscreen, often muscly and feral. Yum.
So I revisited a few of my favorites here from the first two games. I couldn't be bothered to check online for references or ones I'd forgotten, it was all from memory.

--Goriya. They were fucking cute, especially in that atrocious Zelda TV cartoon! I believe the consensus, though it varies among games, is they were rats. I actually started to draw a rat that I concluded was too sexy to put clothes on (not shown here) so this one is the second draft.

--Moblin. Not only do I like bulldogs, HOLY SHIT are they hot in the Zelda 3DS Dev had. Total beefcake. And again, somehow I pulled off what would be a rather difficult pose for me normally with almost no forethought.

--Vire/Acheman. Well, this was one of the last ones I drew and was running out of humanoid characters. Was at least a different body type.

--Fokka. Yes, that's its official name The bird-knight from the 7th level in the 2nd game. Actually was a huge bastard. I might add you can tell I draw organic stuff well like this, but inorganic...not so much. I had extreme difficulties with swords

--Lynel. Not sure if they were centaurs with lion or horse bottom halves, but the lion face was a must. The leather daddy outfit...uh...I guess that was my idea.

--Darknut/Ironknuckle. Not much to say, pretty self-explanatory.

--Daira. From the second game. I just realized I forgot his tail, unless he didn't have one in the game. Oops.

So yeah. Welcome to my world <3
And I'm sure you're all wondering what the OTHER sketches I made were about.
Wouldn't YOU like to know? Hee hee hee. Ain't posting those!
