When I was a kid I owned the player's guide to The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past. I don't remember why because we didn't even have a Super Nintendo. The art in that guide was however really nice and I loved just looking through it over and over. I just recently found out that the man behind many of the illustrations is Katsuya Terada. Be sure to check out his Instagram!
Inspired by his amazing artwork I wanted to create my own Link. He's a little bit of a Ocarina of Time and A Link to the Past mix. It was a lot of fun creating this one. Let me know what you think!
Thanks to Jessica Helgesson for supporting me throughout the project. <3
