Four
Hey guys, I just drew some Four panels that I liked from the new LU update.
If you ask me why each drawing looks different I DID THEM ON DIFFERENT DAYS OKAY? I have a very inconsistent style
Anyways, I was practicing ways of rendering that didn't take so much time to do and I learned a lot from this. Drawing your comfort character really helps a lot to make you want to draw nice.
Didn't you love it when the smithy said 'it's time to smith!' and smithed all over the place? (Sorry)

You asked for more Malink so I delivered.
I love these two 💖 By the time House of Heroes takes place, they've already been married for a few years. She won't be in the story immediately but I can't wait to get things going once this nasty art block lets up.
You'd better treasure seeing Time smile. He doesn't do it much.
Don't tag as LU, please.

Part 6 of the Linked Universe Winged Au! After many requests this time around we've got our Veteran, Legend!
<<< Previous Next >>>
As always we have to start off with a bird fact, so did you know that male White-Winged Crossbills have unpigmented barbules that mask their red color and are what make them appear pink in the fall? However, as these barbules wear off, the bright red is able to show through leaving them a brilliant red in the spring and summer!
Anyways, I found this fact to be very interesting especially considering Legend's adventure throughout Oracle of Seasons. Just the mental image of his plumage slightly shifting with the constant changing of the seasons was very funny to me and I couldn't NOT make it canon. Plus, I enjoy making his life more difficult than it already is because I also headcanon that when he was younger, his wings were constantly stuck in a half molted state because white-winged crossbills usually molt in the fall. In other words, turns out messing around with seasons and time has consequences so he was a very scruffy, fluffy looking kid growing up.
As for how he looks and acts now, he has many similar characteristics and behaviors of a White-Winged Crossbill. For example, he is a very strong flier, and his unique way of flying has given him a very aggressive and abrupt fighting style both on the ground and in the air. His style of fighting is especially effective in forests with a lot of trees because it allows him to dart between foliage and foes alike.
While his flight and fighting styles were influenced by the sheer number of quests he has gone on as well as his young age when he began, other characteristics and behaviors of his were also influenced as well. For example, when he was still just a kid thrown into his first adventure where just about everything in the world was bigger than him, he learned to bristle and fluff his feathers to appear bigger and more threatening to enemies. While somewhat effective at the time, nowadays it means he still has the unconscious habit of doing it whenever he is irritated or embarrassed.
In addition to his tendency to "poof" when upset, he also has a habit of picking at and pulling out his own feathers when especially stressed. He picked up this habit mainly because of his constant molting as a child but then continued it as he was went on more and more adventures. Doing it is second nature to him now, but it's a bad habit he's actively trying to break by fiddling with his rings instead. It's also part of why he's so insistent about preening the others because helping them quite literally stops him from pulling out his own feathers.
Anyways! I could go on, but that's all for now folks! Thank you again for all your support and kind messages! I really treasure them and they are always the highlight of my day! As always, feel free to let me know who or what you would like to see next! Thank you all again!

(Spoiler alert: it won't be just one)
Happy Pride 2023!!!! If you know me on discord, you'll likely have already seen these, but I'm proud to introduce genderfluid Warriors!!!
The decision to make Wars genderfluid was something that developed organically, as with everything in this series. The characters tell us how to write them, not the other way around. Wars' pronouns are he/she/they and it's pretty easy to pick one just based on their presentation (in art, we'll get to the writing part eventually). There have already been hints in-text of Wars starting to question their gender, but this is going to be a slow moving process, like their gender fluidity. Don't expect them to figure this out any time soon lmao, the gay thing was already a lot.
To talk about them, we'll be using he primarily, because that's how Wars feels most of the time, but any are acceptable and we'll shift our language according to circumstance!
Warriors (he/she/they but pls use she for this post) and Legend (he/him) belong to @ageless-soul-au!! Pls don't tag any other AUs!!! ✨
I've been holding onto these drawings for a while just so I could show them off for Pride! Enjoy, and have a lovely June! ❤️🤍💜🖤💙 Here are some closeup screenshots and additional doodles~
