Description
When considering fabrics for zelda i had it in my mind to make it less cartoony and more realistic & period. The dress had to be off white. I was considering wedding satin but that doesn't have a "Saxon" look to it, so I settled on a thick linen. I really wanted to keep all the fabrics looking natural. The over shirt is made of dupioni silk. Zelda is a princess so naturally she would be able for afford rich fabric for her gowns. Its fun to me to find elements that are true to the character, it brings them to life! This photo was part of a fun photoshoot with Doug Durham were pikminlink and i could play out their parts ^_~ To see the rest of the photos from the shoot go here -> [link]Pikminlink as Link - [link]

I created a step by step process on how to make your own LoZ:TP Zelda Armor including a pattern you can print out! I broke down each piece to its own section.
