Description From my sketchbook!
I just had to join in on the E3 excitement! I'm so hyped for Hyrule Warriors!!! And the new Zelda coming in 2015 looks amazing! Hopefully I can make a little something in celebration of that game's announcement too...
I decided to experiment with ink pens here. This is not a medium I use often. There are lots of mistakes but I learned a lot. I also tried out using only blue as a color and making this in a very graphic, manga or comic book like style.
(I ended up making this at like 1AM... xD )
EDIT 6/29/14 Touched up the image quality and contrast in Photoshop.
Media: Faber-Castell ink pens and blue Prismacolor pencil on paper.
Link (C) Hyrule Warriors, Nintendo, Tecmo Koei
Artwork (C) please do not use without my permission!

Comments, s, and critique loved and appreciated! ^^
