Off at shore, new land awaits.

There's a shaded version up in the Discord server, but I wanted to post the unshaded version since it includes the redesign for Feathers and his loftwing :D and Proxi, I suppose.

You've stolen the moon, my love.

I don't think I've drawn Wild yet, so I decided to doodle him. Got a little out of hand, but here we are! Here's Wild without their prosthetic. Nothing too pretty it took me like. 30 minutes

Engie tattoos?????? (Not a staged ask wdym) :0

I'm kind of surprised nobody brought up Engie's tattoos, but I'm SO glad I totally did not as you to do that for me <3 ofc not!

These tattoos were actually a lot harder to design than Tune's were, because Engie's hands are a much smaller canvas to work with than Tune's whole entire chest.

Some day, I gotta make a little chart and describe the entire meanings of both of these tattoos, cause they were really fun to design!

[monstrous-fusion]

I'm going to be working on something for a little bit, but I also wanna answer some asks and requests. If anyone has some AU questions or art requests for the AU I'd love to see them and answer when I'm done!

The image on the left is Mirror's final concept. In this AU, he's not a bunny, but a hare! In some cultures, people believe that hares can change forms and they represent magic.

I've been working on some emojis for the Discord Server on the side while I work on other art pieces and it's been really nice to practise expressions using it. Here's a Rancher with an Ordionian goat billy!!!

Can you share your favorite fun facts about the blorbos?

Oh man, it's really hard to choose! I've got quite a few little niche facts about the Links!! So I'll just list one for each Link 🫶🏽 Hopefully I'll do it in alphabetical order </3

Artisan still lives with the Tailor's family! They work under her apprenticeship, rather than her husband, and they're much happier as a tailor than they were as a blacksmith. (actually also adding that Artisan keeps in contact with the other heroes from Triforce Heroes :D they're Crimson and Sapphire!

Engie is really big into herpatology on the side. His first love is definitely trains (and Zelda, I guess) but he loves picking up injured reptiles that he sees and nursing them back to health! His favourite type of reptile is a snake and he loves rainbow boas :D

Eras actually really enjoys cooking. Before being enlisted into the Hyrulean army, he wanted to be a chef. Being a hero swept him up and he's been too ensnared by court theatre to ever even think about his dreams a chef. He can still cook up a mean pumpkin soup though.

Faye has far more tattoos than meets the eye--and yes, those...tend to bleed too. Their blood has a strange blue tint to it that translates through their scars too. (side bar but I do actually have a diagram with the tattoos so I'm adding that too)

Feathers has a loftwing named Azul. He thinks he's very smart and funny for naming the Red Loftwing a shade of blue.

Green, in Minish's system, is incredibly paranoid. He's a huge motherhen and very protective of his system, and they constantly keep a moon pearl attached to their necklace. Just in case! They also keep a mysterious shell on their necklace as well...for luck.

Due to excessive magic use as a kid, Mirror suffers through severe chronic pain. He has a cane in his bag for days when flare ups are so bad he could barely walk. That doesn't stop him from continuing to use magic, he just has to use it very sparingly.

Tune lives full time in Tetra's crew. He values her expertise and knowledge and respects her more than anyone--besides his grandmother, of course. He's adamant that she's the strongest (and coolest) person he knows. (also, since I couldn't pick which fact I wanted to write, I'm adding that he is OBSESSED with cats. The Ship cats practically own him

Kind of a random detail in my AU, but Agitha is the one who helped Rancher realise she's a girl and helped her be confident in her body! They collect bugs together and Rancher definitely doesn't know a lot about them, but she LOVES hearing Agitha infodump about them.

Wild is a lone wolf by design. It's not like he intends to be that way, but he just. Always feels like a passive observer of his own life and accidentally drifts away from groups without realising it. Because of it, he can blend into the background very well.

Zonau has not talked to someone in literal decades. He isolated himself to do the goddesses know what, and kind of sucks at socialising as a result. It's just super out of practise. It's a little bit of a hermit crab.

Oh!! and I also have. playlists that I'm making for my Links too :D but I'll add those when I'm actually finished them </3

[monstrous-fusion]

Got a lil busy, so I couldn't post this yesterday, but please have a...very compressed drawing for all the booping yesterday 🫶🏽 here is ur reward.

With that in mind, our Askbox is open :D open to hearing some AU questions to get the steam rolling.

[monstrous-fusion]

Here's an older art piece for Engie.

[monstrous-fusion]

!!!! I love it so much Lulla!!! It's so lovely wahhhhhh (</3 I see the dog too ur so right)

challenged myself to draw in under 10 minutes the other day so drew @monstrous-fusion's artisan because they're really fun and i need to do them justice later >:)

[monstrous-fusion]

I thought I'd share some old faerie concepts, back before I had a solid idea on how I wanted them to look in the AU. I still draw them like this sometimes, ngl, it's really fun. It's just. hard </3

For those of you who have the money, please please consider checking out this Zine. There are so many talented writers and artists going into this for the merch AND for the zine itself. All proceeds will go to Doctors Without Borders, a charity that sends aid and medical support to humanitarian crisises.

If you cannot support this financially, consider signal boosting. REBLOG or share with your friends or on other social media. Doctors Without Borders is currently sending humanitarian aid to countries like Congo, Sudan, Palestine and so many more that don't get a lot of coverage but need our help.

Preorders will be open for the duration of the month. I will have a link to the zine's purchase in the pinned post for this AU until preorders are over. I helped work on the AU too :D I worked with arhva on the Hero of the Minish writing piece and worked on a Keychain!! Please please check it out if you can, the artwork is truly beautiful.

Do your part and donate where you can. If you can't donate, SHARE. Thank you.
