🌟we've hit 100,000 followers!🌟
we'd like to take this moment to thank everyone for engaging with this blog, which started out a stupid little quarantine project to keep saph sane and has now devolved into absolute madness. somewhere along the way katya joined and we have been having stupid amounts of fun ever since
a big thank you to especially @zombiemollusk @corypaws for single handedly carrying the submissions @femme--de--lettres for always comitting to the bit @cheesecakeanon for also committing to the bit, banana bread anon for trying to constantly poison us, whoever the anon was that sent the original ask that became the Delaware post, everyone who has ever been involved with one of our bits, sent an ask, or added on to one of our posts and everyone who we have befriended because of this blog (you all know who you are)
while we are infinitely aware that having this many followers on tumblr.com gets us absolutely nothing but niche and pointless internet clout, we are still grateful for all of you. THANK YOU!!!

lemon i hope you know (if you didn't already from your notification boom solely from me) that your prev hero au designs did something to me. fundamentally altered my brain somehow. im literally stuffing them in my mouth how did you do that
HHEELLLOOOO THIS WAS A LOVELY NOTIFICATION BOMB TO WAKE UP TO, HOLDING ALL THESE TAGS NEAR AND DEAR TO MY HEART
as for how (i'm seizing this as an opportunity to share a bunch of process work):
there was a butt load of trial and error
From what I can remember (this all started 3 years ago holy shit,,,) I worked on Kevin's design first. The only 2 ref images I've found are included in the screenshot, but I'm pretty sure I was looking at those in addition to all of the other Impa+Sheik designs from the games, OG Hyrule Warriors concept art for Impa+Sheik, and the Sheikah pages from BOTW's Creating A Champion.
here's Link's stuff and YIPPEE I HAVE HIS REFERENCE IMAGES 🙌🙌
(BIG BIGG shoutout to @/historyofhyrule btw for archiving so much concept art and everything from all of the zelda games. None of this brainrot would've been possible without them.)
butt load of trial and error cont. especially for the colour of his scarf omg (I was looking at some of the hero's garb colour variants from OG Hyrule Warriors, and was conscious of the two other scarf wearing Links in Zelda Not Canon)
I can't find Zelda's inspo/ref images either but I remember referencing Griffith and Casca from Berserk, Kushana from Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind, Ashei from TP, some of the OG Hyrule Warriors concept art for Princess Zelda, and of course some of the other canon Zelda designs (ALttP, TP, HW, OoT, BOTW).
I'd say Kushana was and still is the biggest inspo for Prev!Zelda, even personality wise I find myself looking back to her and how she was in the Nausicaa manga and movie.
final design thoughts: I really REALLY wanted the three of them to look cohesive with each other SO,
I always carried over screenshots of the other members of the trio onto their individual canvases to make sure that any changes I made to one design didn't stand out too much from the others,
I'm also pretty sure I worked on Link and Zelda's design simultaneously, or at least flipped back and forth between them a LOT when doing their armour (I wanted it to be evident that they were produced by the same smiths of the royal family yknowww),
and finally I made sure there were a couple of shared colours between their colour palettes
Thankee Thankee for reading this far and I hope y'all enjoyed my process stuff :))!!!

💖Give a big hug for Sketchy from Clementine and Hana!💖
(Hope you’re having a good day and keep up the amazing work. Your art is beautiful💖✨)
Thank you so much! I LOVE YOUR ART TOO! I mean seriously, those bird beast designs are my favorites! And your ocs are adorable. And there are so many other pieces of art I love made by you.
Sketchy hugged them back and then they played with each others hair ❤️💜💙✨
