sculpted over a rather long period of time, but finished '04

This is Link! Not just any old Link, but Link made of Sculpey modelling
clay by me! Most of the head and torso are filled in with foil, meaning I
can't go back and fix the lines of his face. His limbs and the Master Sword
are strengthened and straightened with toothpicks. His face, his shield, his
scabbard, and his sword are all painted with Games Workshop paint and I touched
up the white of his sweater and pants, too, because it had a lot of green
and brown smudged into it. That's how I knew today would be the day for these
pictures (hooray) because I found my sheath reference sketch in my sketchbook,
with the details taken from the Super Smash Bros. Melee trophy. The shield
details were from a printed out action
pose picture which was done for Soul Caliber II, I believe.(that link leads to the picture at Gamespot, but if you go there you can't get back by pressing the back button)
And I just started from a random boot.
He survived his move with the rest of us, carefully packed in Kleenex, Ziplock, and bubble-wrap, and only one bent ear... look at those ears, and you'll see why it's so amazing only about a square millimeter needs to be reglued.
See more on the Link Statue showcase page!
Some of the pictures are focused, unfortunately, on the background, which is a bunch of nifty wall pieces, I'm not sure from where.
Uh, I think these images are probably going to take up the rest of my space. I'm going to revamp to make up for it... I've changed the icons, and now I think I can make the picture files a bit smaller, but they might change slightly in appearance also. I think it will mostly involve making the pencil pictures black and white, since they're... grey and grey.
Also, I've put in the prologue to Fire Emblem 7 and added Ceniro stuff to the writing page. No wonder this site takes up so much room.
