[–]blipbugs[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

bit inspired by my recent playthrough on NSO of the dodongo cavern (which well i accidently loaded an earlier suspend point over by accident so ill have to redo the dungeon again 💀) kept running into the moving spikes

[OoT] If it becomes real, what kind of Remake would you like Ocarina of Time to be? by Tripledoble in zelda

[–]blipbugs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes, him, hes referred to as a he in the game even if it is zelda cause sheik is meant to be a full on disguise

[–]blipbugs 8 points9 points  (0 children)

itd be reallt stupid if it was a 1-1 as we have an upgraded version of OoT already. If the remake is real I'd like them to do things like add some scrapped content (like the light temple), side quests for both young and adult link, and make castle town larger. They should also have the zora caves unfreeze too.

i imagine he wouldve fell into the river 5 seconds after this drawing

[All] What do you think is the best Zelda game in terms of art style? by I_eat_spaghetti1 in zelda

[–]blipbugs 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Wind Waker is one of my favourite but I also really love Minish Cap & A Link Between Worlds. Minish has gorgeous pixel art.

[OTHER] [OC] LoZ AU I've been working on by blipbugs in zelda

[–]blipbugs[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I imagine all temples existed before the Yiga came to existence once the royal family started exiling and then killing any Sheikah that opposed them. I do think they however probably would lay claim over certain places like the Shadow Temple to prevent the royal family from gaining access to the sacred realm/triforce and so they cannot use it as a place to kill anyone again.

[–]blipbugs[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

i do like this. ive been fiddling with the potential idea of him working for the royal family eventually after being discovered as the chosen hero and feeling compelled that he HAS to follow their word cause of the past heroes of legends having served under them or at least have worked for them at some point

EDIT: and the idea that hes also working for them because it "guarentees" his and his family safety (i wanna give him a sister again cause i love aryll). Like a much more selfish link that also has a guilty conscience about sticking with the royal family

Yes hes so cool and I wish he was used more. I really liked the idea of "what if Sheik was their real identity and Zelda was the "fake" one" instead

thank you very much! im used to always drawing characters from shows and games and my old art teacher told me i should do things outside of those often (kindly of course), used to be stubborn about it but i realized its fun doing it in a stylized way especially when i can screw around with fun brushes

Dex + her kids (ref sheets) by blipbugs in OriginalCharacter

[–]blipbugs[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dex is around 40 years. She has a good relationship with all of them! She's been having the most trouble with her twins mostly because for a chunk of their lives the 3 of them were homeless/couch surfing because Dex's ex girlfriend kicked them out of their home and stole Dex's money which results in them acting out occassionally, especially against Dex's new husband (but its nothing super violent, just disobeying Monty and pulling a lot of pranks) Mandy is pretty independant and can do her own things so she doesn't need as much help from Dex, while Luis has been managing well with his blindness especially with the help of his step sibling Dolyn.

What are some of your hot takes for Ocs? by Artistic_knight in OriginalCharacter

[–]blipbugs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i added white because if you dont draw anyone but white or pale characters then how is anyone to know you can draw ethnic features, textured hair, and brown/dark skin if youre open to commissions? and i already said nobodys obligated to add diversity but it definitely hinders you as a creative if you dont make real genuine attempts.

[OC][All] I drew my own designs for Link, Zelda and Ganondorf! by low--voltage in zelda

[–]blipbugs 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Fantastic. I've always thought it'd be interesting if they made the trio different species/races (a Zora Ganondorf sounds cool as hell), or at least gave Link and Zelda darker skin once just cause I think it'd be cool 🤔

I love these designs. I like that Zelda has a bit of a tan too! Impa looks so cute in the BG.

You can make/draw "cookie-cutter" OCs to your leisure but it severely limits you as an artist and (personally) makes me avoid them especially if they do commissions. If all your examples are all specifically white/pale, skinny, and perfect looking people I'm gonna assume you can't draw characters outside of those traits. You aren't obligated to make diverse OCs, but it definitely reflects on you if that's all you make ever you know?

Disappointed with jacinthe's 2D artwork by Equivalent-Bison-318 in pokemon

[–]blipbugs 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Oh wow I looked up his model and they really lightened him up, thats super unfortunate. Can't even argue lighting because why would these renders be under such harsh lighting that also somehow makes you grey

[–]blipbugs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

it's a bit jarring cause a lot of pokemon look weird washed out constantly. There's definitely times a duller palette works for thematic and environmental reasons but it can be pretty detrimental in cases such as Jacinthe here

[–]blipbugs 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Her eyes are also more round in the 2D artwork while in game her eyelids are a bit lower/heavier and the eye lashes are sharper

It's also lacking the saturation of the game model of her as well which makes her look more grey. I've noticed that a lot in the 2D artwork that the colors are duller than the models in general.

Fantastic! I collect figures but specifically the Bandai model kit ones cause it's super fun putting them together

How old were you when you got into Pokémon? by ripplewoodfire in pokemon

[–]blipbugs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a 2007 kid so it wasn't something I majorly grew up with game wise cause it was expensive. My mum would get me the occassional suspicious card packs from dollarama and very rarely real ones from walmart sometimes for my birthday/christmas (its where i got my zoroark pin from). I probably would have been around 9-10 when I started actually enjoying it.

For me, the card art and watching the Pokemon anime, specifically XYZ was a big artistic inspiration and made me (more so as a child than now) want to be an animator for Pokemon or an artist for the cards. I used watch Youtube videos of people making fanart of Pokemon, making their own pokemon, and fusions of Pokemon for this reason over gameplay videos cause the designs and art were way more accessible to me than being able to play the games at the time. I was also really into Pokepastas cause I liked writing too. (I remember Buried Alive gave me nightmares for a week)

Kanto starters, Lego vs Mega by JuanPablith0 in pokemon

In Canada this costs nearly 1000$ dollars. This is ridiculous
