First off, sorry its taken me so long and he still isn't done, but it'll be cool if someone somewhere would like to help me with a portrait. I can't do them at all. Here's my most updated spritesheet. You can tell I still need some time but hopefully really soon, he'll be done and the Hero Of Time will be ready to rock in Ivalice, trying to save Ovelia instead of Zelda.

One thing I know I have to fix is, if you look at his shoulder from the back view, there are green pointy shoulder pads, those are remnants of the thief's bandana. I just noticed it.

You can change which ever sword animation you like, but every sword that is linked to that animation will look like the master sword. Same for the shields.

at the most id just suggest using the animations the weapons already have and just rename it. (i mean really, dont u think the materia blade should have looked like the buster sword? but no that looks just the same as the nagrarok when you slash)

The portrait looks really good Curu. You are a definite artist. My only criticism is that the ear looks a little odd, perhaps too long and flat.

Oh hoho. I'm seeing a major debate starting up here. I personally think Curu's original portrait looks fine. My fiancee on the other hand is throwing a fit about this as she is a long time Zelda fan. Here are her thoughts:
Zelda's hat makes him look like a nun. It needs more shape and bulk to not look like a habit (apparently that is what the weird hats nuns wear are called). The ears should look like how they are in the actual game and not the character art (she made some analogy about clothing designs and that the practical use of a design should be considered the true design since it is what is more feasible). Closing statement: "It looks like a fucking habit."

Personally, I think more bulk would make it look even more nunly. It's a long floppy cap, and you don't have the luxury of seeing the entire shape of it in a portrait. I say it's fine as it is, unless you've a preference for shorter ears.
And a long-time Zelda fan should know his name is Link. :p </catty>

She is entitled to her personal opinions, whether I agree with them or not. Regardless of how a debate goes I am not changing it, if someone else wants to change it they can go right ahead as I don't rightly care about the piece. Further more I will always use a piece of concept art when available over a 3D rendered model, especially a low poly count one, the only exception being if I can open the model file in 3DS Max to rotate and examine it, but I still wont use it if it's a low quality 3D rendering as seen in most 64 titles.
Also, I see Etna.

On the ears debate I always lean towards the character art in any game. The in game images are abject to change to fit the style of the game or because of limitations in the software. I agree with Curu long ears stay because that is the way the designer of the character see him, and that's how it goes.

Quote from: "darthpaul"Actually if it is horrible on his part I would like to know.Fine. Since he does die at fort Ziekden, while he was revived as a zombie by Elmdor, he was re-killed right after. The Ex-Shrine knights found the name Sadalfas in history, and seeing how they ended up, they decided to revive Algus. They revived him from a multitude of other crystal stratums(the crystals that are left behind when someone dies). He looked perfectly fine, but, sadly for him, the crystals weren't sufficient and his body's molecular structure is breaking down. Basically, his revived body is degrading. Eventually his body will break down completely and he will cease to exist. Even his soul will be gone.
Now, if you want to know WHAT he is trying to do to stop it, send me a message, cause its a MAJOR plot point.

I would think it would be more interesting to actually make a Mirror Shield item than give him an auto-reflect support ability. Could make a Master Sword item, too. I'm not sure how you'd handle the ocarina, though...

Not that I know of, but I would like it if someone was willing to give it a shot and finish it.

Well, the work started back in January, I'm pretty sure the original creator isn't working on it anymore.

This sucks balls. My computer won't turn on so whoever wants to take the sprite and finish it is more than welcome. I think the one posted on here is pretty recent. Just give me credit okay?

This sprite does need to be finished. It is a bit messy in parts but it is at least a good design. The skin tones really need some work, but the portrait is freaking amazing. Everyone just take a look at the first couple posts for what you need to get started.

Oh man, that Link looks beautiful too, but it looks like it'd be a bitch to complete. The one in this topic is pretty good as well, it just needs to be finished and completely touched up...The portrait is solid too--let's not lose it.

Smash's link, it looks nice. But it looks so custom, I can't imagine what character was used as a base or anything! If we knew the base sprite and any parts that were specifically taken from other sprites then it would be much simple to complete Smash's link... not saying that it would be easy, just simple.

I believe all of Smash's sprites are completely custom, he only used other sprites as visual reference. But we can still use some of his design ideas, colors, and at least the head to improve on the base that currently exists.

Yeah, Smash's work are total custom. Though the current Link in the first page looks good ^^
Can't compare that with Smash's as his is a whole new level of skill. And yes, Link portrait by Curu...Please do not lose it. I doubt there's anyone can come up with a better Link portrait.

I'm very unhappy with how his hat looks in these frames. Anyone want to try to redesign it or give me some ideas on how to fix it?
EDIT: All that green in his tights has been removed and his skirt has been redone.

Link doesn't wear a skirt, its a long tunic >_> yeah...thats it...anyways your hat looks actually better than mine, but it could use a bit of a raise against gravity. The tights are alright, but replace those shoes, Link wears boots. I know this will sound like a bad idea (considering you are basing this Link off of the Ocarina of Time one) but get rid of/change the strap/belt thing that he wears across his chest, to me it looks weird, thats just my opinion, I bet others will tell you to leave it alone. The green on the tights wasn't removed in the 1st and 3rd frame btw. Keep at this, this will be a great sprite!

I may have said I removed the green but I didn't update the pictures. And in the third frame you'll notice his shoulder jags out, that is the remnant of the female thief bandana which has been fixed. Skirt/Tunic has been redone so it doesn't resemble the thief's shorts anymore.

It may be cartoony, but this is the best Link design I've ever seen. Notice the subtle chain mail and the fact that he's wearing actual pants and not tights. I don't know if the chainmail can be properly conveyed in a sprite, but the rest of the clothing design would do well for the appearance I think.

Hey Silvas, they should remake the first Zelda from the NES and use that pic as a base. One problem that artist overlooked is that I think Link is left handed, but besides that, the chain-mail could work because in the SNES game Link wears "blue mail" and "red mail". I think I might devout some time to a young Link based from the Ramza (ch.1) sprite, but after I'm done with the cactuar. Funny thing is, on a gravestone in FF1 for the GBA, it says "Here lies Link", maybe SquarEnix had some problems with the Legend of Zelda or something...and here we are trying to make a Link sprite for FFT...

That Link is for the next Wii game, so no, that wasn't an oversight. He's right handed for the same reason they flipped everything for the Wii version of Twilight Princess: most players will be right handed.
Square seemed to poke fun of and get poked fun at by Nintendo and Enix both. As far as I can tell, it was all just friendly, teasing easter eggs, not anything hostile.
