ricky_the_kangaroo.jpgRicky and Link (version 2)310 viewsIf you've ever played 'Oracle of Seasons' on Game Boy Color then you'll know you can choose 3 different companions to help your quest, so this free-spirited boxing kangaroo 'Ricky' was an instant fave with me. =3
I did said fan artwork years ago then eventually uploaded it to ZeldaLegends, then deviantART under a different alias name "Roo-meister", but various problems and random DA n00bs made me quit the site for a while. Anyways I've now decided to revamp the colours, give it b/g and share it with everyone here.

link_200X.jpgLink 200X375 viewsA new Link emerges in Hyrule's not-too-distant future, trained by the Hylian Sword-Grand-Masters themselves, this Link has no real need for shields or armour - he deflects all attacks with his sword alone!RICKY

rickyrulz.jpgRicky > Link324 viewsYes it's true the roo is greater than the rider. >:3
Having played Oracle games recently I realised that Link is such a pain-in-the-ass to control, I'm not bashing the difficulty factor because gamers love a new challenge, and all Zelda games start with just 3 hearts meaning the monsters can inflict tremendous damage to your life-force, BUT here you always seem to come off worse whenever fighting a screen full of enemies, the hero moves like a stoned snail and his sword is pathetically weak! (you can't upgrade it until the last leg of the quest) …don't even get me started on those damn electrified monsters. ]:x
My annoyance sky-rocketed after the first few dungeons; then I found Ricky, and I actually started enjoying the game again. This kangaroo kicks ass! Ricky can move far faster, attacks bad guys like crazy, jump over cliffs easily, and unleashes powerful mini-tornados upon command. =3
Pity you can't take this companion into the dungeons. >.>

pinkrabbitlink_aLttP.jpgPink rabbit Link142 viewsAnyone who's played "A Link to the Past" on the SNES or GBA will know where this funny character comes from.
The game revolves around this corrupted dark world where you must retrieve the sacred Triforce but all mortals who enter here are transformed by the golden power into a reflection of their own heart. First time round I was really fascinated to see Link emerge in this dimension as a pink innocent rabbit, an ingenious concept for early 90s. Problem is you're harmless and everyone else has turned into ravenous monsters, not to mention the little guy only appears for a short time in the game. >.>

triforce_phoenix.jpgPhoenix of the Triforce (Fanfic)768 viewsThis was an early idea for a 'possible' zelda ending, here Link defeats Ganon, and recovers the Triforce, he takes pity on the inanimate object, so his wish, was for it to be reborn as this celestial being. (art requested by GirLink!)RICKY

picoinhouse.jpgHome sweet home (Minish Cap II)164 viewsAnother revamped sketch I found on my cluttered desktop.
Turns out the young Minish Pico is actually learning to become a sage and knows a great deal of spells as the storyline unfolds. The kid is also fascinated by Hyrulian lore, history and prophecy as shown by the stain glass windows. He looks up to Link which is funny given present circumstances. =3

linkpico_ds_01.jpgPico climbing version 2 (Minish Cap II)143 views while ago I played Minish Cap for GBA and those Minish characters (mouse-like sprites) really made the game for me. I came up with the idea that a possible sequel could be made by Capcom's Flagship studio for that platform but then edited the original image to carry the up-to-date DS logo.
I used a 'light/dark world' scenario where in the Minish World the human characters become micro and the Minish folk themselves are macro. Link, the hero of the Zelda games, becomes stranded in this land and his size makes him helpless so relies on his young friend Pico to transverse the immense terrain. This creates game-play interactions on the touch screen where the characters switch helping each other overcome monsters and obstacles in a new exciting adventure!

picocoop.jpgPico teamwork304 viewsAn example of how the 2 player co-operative system could work, in this case, Pico is far too heavy to walk across weak floors, Link however is light enough to cross...
This system of split-up and working together allows the two to overcome bosses, puzzles and so on.RICKYNov 06, 2005
