A Well Earned Rest by ~cyen:iconcyen:

Artist's Comments

Finally finished the kiriban gift for :iconeinmonim: who requested a picture of "TP or OoT Link + water, green, magic, something." Well, no magic and there's green if you count Link's hat.

Since I know Einmonim doesn't like Link without his hat, I drew it in just for her, but it makes his nakedness even more obvious. I was going to add some text balloons but got lazy. The big Goron is having his sirloin rock as a snack (I think only in OoT did they talk about tasty rocks but who cares) while the little Goron is trying to sell Link stuff, but Link just blissfully ignoring them. XD I think this actually my first time drawing a happy (and naked) Link.

It's been forever since I did cel-shading so please excuse the bad shading as well as the bad anatomy. The colors looked more red/brown than usual. I think it's because I added a layer of tan color right over the entire image as well as picking for redder tones for shading. First time drawing Gorons and they ended up looking weird. I think the best bit is the angry chicken. :D

Oops, I forgot to add blush. Link is sitting in a hot spring...

My eyes hurt so I really need to get away from the computer now.

Haha, naked with a hat! That's the best kind of naked. ^_^ (Second best is naked with socks on.) I love the steam! And I REALLY love the chicken. (I have a chicken obsession.)

I like the nice clean cel shading.

relaxing in a spring = better then wrestling a goron

*Insert excessive giggling and "Hell yeah!"s here* Oh wow, this is awesome... and I would never have seen it coming in a million years. XD I love his pose (and HAT!) and the Gorons too! For being your first time drawing them, they turned out really well. And the angry Cucco just about makes my day.

It's going to be very hard not to sneak onto your page when your next kiriban rolls around to claim it again. XD Thank yooooooooooou! And I hope it didn't kill your eyes too much. :O

Oh hey, you're online now~ I'm so glad you liked it! I was actually a bit worried. Originally I wanted to draw Link fishing, but you already did that awesome fishing comic already which I couldn't top. It's bee so long that really don't know why I ended up drawing Link soaking in the hotspring now. XD

It was a lot of fun drawing this even though it took me so long to finally get it done. I wouldn't mind if you get my next kiriban. :3 I think coloring wasn't as painful compared reading reading so my eyes were ok, definitely better than yesterday.

Hahahahahah, I agree naked with socks on is awesome too! Angry chicken always makes a picture better. XD

Thanks~

So true, so true, and wrestling a goron is better than wrestling a goron naked.

Darn the convenientally placed leg. ;) Nekkid Link FTW. :XD:

I think you did a great job with perspective, anatomy, and GORONS zomg. They look really hard to draw (haha, unintended pun) though I haven't tried before.
:iconcyen:
Hahahahah, it was either that or he wears shorts. XD Gorons were surprisingly fun to draw except for their stubbly legs. Now I'm tempted to draw Zoras. They look easier to draw than Gorons.

AAAaaahhh!!! You added a chicken!! Yaaay~!
I think the Gorons look just fine. And Link looks totally happy.
After all the crap I put him through, I think it's a rest well earned, indeed. xD
Me likies.
