    Any takers? Send me a 360 copy of LA Noire and she's all yours :D
    Honestly I just wanted to show you guys her latest concept art of Link for all you Zelda fans out there: http://eponagirl.deviantart.com/art/Link-Concept-Art-209525701  
     
    Too bad we'll never see Link approaching this level of "maturity" unless he makes another cameo in Soul Calibur V or something. So yeah, call this shameless promotion if you will, but I was just proud of her and figured she deserves a little bit of internet recognition/troll attempts/whatever :)

    I think that's some pretty mighty fine art, though Link looks a little strange that...buff.

    Feel like this is gonna get locked, but, still.

    He's the guest character in the PS3 version of SCV.

    The guest character in the Xbox 360 version will be Kratos.

    Also, am I the only person who has trouble getting DeviantArt's stylesheets to load the first few times? And numerous images?

    It'll get locked, really? Is there some sort of " ~~**~~ Official Zelda Art Thread ~~**~~  lol" topic I could post this in, then?
    I mean, I'd understand this being locked if this were my first post on here with just the link but I'm a paying GB member that's on here at least six hours a day haha. Let the poor girl get some kudos from the duders on here, at least!

    It's Zack Efron with a less round face.

    What? You're shitting me! Got any links or sources? I figured PS3 would get Ryu Hayabusa or something in exchange for a crazy Taki/Ayane game merger for Team Ninja.

    I guess if it's true, Link's Soul Charge move'll be a runaway train that smashes into the opponent.

    Your subscription money goes directly into a fund that supports the locking of Zelda art threads.

    I have no idea why this would be lock-worthy.

    Sorry, I could be wrong, I just seem to remember the last thread that was made with the purpose of linking to a deviantart account being locked. Not saying that it should. I also have a notoriously bad memory.

    Still, mad props to the artist, yo!

    I don't think there is anything wrong with this thread, but I also see why someone would think a mod would lock it. I guess it's because it is just pimping out. I know that posting a youtube video and saying check this out is lock-worthy, but idk how it works with deviantart stuff.

    With that out of the way, I think that Link art is pretty damn good.

    It looks like she designed him after Zac Efron.


    I'd be asking her some serious questions.

    Zack Efron is analogous to Link as Jimmy Durante is to Rayman

    ...so, got a copy of a LA Noire here, sealed. She like girls? We're like that creepy couple in Scrubs, only less date-rapey.

    (I kid, I kid, great art!)

    The art is great. I just think the "Zefron-but-more-chiseled" look takes away from the charm of the character. It may just be me, but when I see that face, I think less "underdog hero" and more "douchey prince charming that steals the princess in the end". This really is well-made, but I think Link looks like a nobody for a reason.

    I know you're joking... but considering SCV probably won't be out till at least the end of 2012, the new Nintendo Console could have been out several months by then and they get put link in that version.  And I would be excited.
