Link is my background rn and whenever I check my phone while I’m at the store or something it feels like that one post

Some grumpy guys

Extra doodles under the read more!

Everything is from January 2023.

I wanted to try drawing Hyrule a lil differently but I'm meh with how it turned out. He doesn't quite look himself imo but I want these out of my folders! The drawing of Hyrule in the water was largely inspired by this piece by @/mmmwafflesart, so please please please go show Waffles some love. Their art is just amazing.

Wind's bit was supposed to be set around the same time that Twi was still injured.

Hyrule: *pokes Wind who's laying on the floor* Wind: *cough cough sniffle* I'm sick you can't bully me. Hyrule: *poking fun* Sick as a dog? (haha funny pirate joke because Wind's a pirate) Wind: *huge sobby eyes* We can't make that joke anymore.

It doesn't work as well now that Twi's better, but at the time, it was definitely too soon to be making dog jokes LMAO (the fandom was worried!!!) And Wind's a pirate! How sad to not be able to make the pirate jokes auuUH a double whammy!

[lablass-2882]

I got blessed by the WiFi gods last night and was able to have YouTube and the corel software open at the same time. Hahaha! I'm slowly learning how to use the Corel Painter software for more art projects.

Thanks again @mmmwafflesart for letting me color this. It was fun.

Coloring on procreate is turning out to be really fun lol

Do you think legend would have a fuck ton of peircings?

hmm I don't think he would have that much, but I can imagine him taking some of those rings he has and turning them into earrings/earcuffs

[bokettochild]

So, in honor of LU's 4th anniversary, I will be sharing the results of my introducing the Boys to my younger sister! I basically showed her a bunch of pictures and she made assumptions while I laughed my ass off and tried to type while keeping up with what she was saying.

Here are the results of that!

Let's get into it, shall we?

(For clarity, my comments are in italics and hers will be in quotation marks)

"His name is Thor

"Knight in shining armor, stern, leader but not totally controlling, honor obsessed."

(She got more detailed about them all later on, but yeah, she was short with the first few, but a bit on the nose XD)

"Weird insomniac guy

"Strikes me as distrusting, wily, protective of family, lone wolf "

(I died)

"Boromir

"Strikes me as being proud, vain, sassy, a bit of a narcissist, tries to look good but often breaks the rules, look out for Number #1"

You're not that far off, I mean, he's not a narcissist, he learned not to be after the villain um...lusted after him and hilled hundred of people because she wanted him to be hers.

"Shaggy

"Ugly, he ugly. Obviously he's got a super sword so he must have done something cool to get that but he doesn't deserve it, like, he's not cool after all. He looks like he's supposed to be really cool but is actually boring. Not very relatable, too perfect."

(She tore into him lol)

(I didn't tell her anything, but I guess she picked up on the fact that he's a religious nut. And when she saw me type this she kinda groaned so....)

(She looked shocked when I said he was dating a goddess) "That's not religious that's sacrilegious!"

"Legolas

"Cute! He's cute. Probably a bit mischievous, spunky, bit of a rebel, goes off and does his own adventures when he's not supposed to. Generally smart but gets his butt handed to him on occasion from going off my himself. He's just like a cute, mischievous trouble-maker who means well but get's himself screwed up."

(I was dying as I wrote it, she got him perfect!)

"Hiccup

"Getting a Hiccup vibe, but also Sokka- Is that a boomerang? It's a boomerang :)

"He a bit timid on the surface, but he's got his own thing going and is gonna stand up for what he wants to do. He'll go off and do his adventure stuff but he's also afraid of dying or getting hurt (like the 1st Hiccup freeing Toothless scene in the woods). Easily startled but quick to spring into action. Kinda like the sneak boi."

(Told me to make sure to type it "boi")

He's half fairy.

"That makes sense.

"And his sword is dying! Look at this!!!"

(She really disliked how his sword looks, we laughed like nuts)

"Kuzko

"Why Kuzko? I already don't like him. I feel like he's cocky, a bit of a flirt, tries to look cool and screws it up. Like he thinks he's really epic, "stand aside, let me do my thing", proceeds to blow himself up. Based on the fact that he's holding a bomb I'm guessing that he does something with explosives, but he's also got a sword. And what is that, a joker's vest? He looks like that weird kid who ran away to join the circus but is also a mercenary part time."

Anything else?

"He explode."

Everyone's gonna riot, you're just tearing into their favorites!

"Baby Face- No! Mort! (like in Madagascar)

Ew. He's like an ugly baby face, is he slinging a bell around? What is that? Is that a bell?"

It's a grappling hook.

"Either he's really small and immature, or just really young, or both. I feel like the creator designed him to be this mischievous lovable character but I would probably hate him :). Probably takes on too much, tries to be a hero but he's to amateur. Probably has a dramatic backstory; like he's a prince or something. He's probably got like a high pitched annoying voice (she dislikes kids). He's like if Deku was younger and medieval, except I like Deku. He probably cries a lot too."

(Sorry to the Wind, Sky and Four fans, I can't control her)

Last one (for now)

(told her he's my fav)

"Sonic

Oh no. Oh no. I think he's like, cocky, flashy, probably a bit of a flirt, but at the same time I feel like underneath that he's really sweet. He's a team player but a bit of a showoff. It's easy for him to get himself into a pickle."

He turns into a rabbit.

No rabbits! No! No rabbits! (She just read Melvina's Therapy webtoon)

"He looks like is James Hiller tried to be an elf knight."

Anything else?

"Idk he's just weird."

He's the most emo out of all of them.

"He's emo? He looks like a 'har har snicker ha' (a swashbuckler, for those who didn't grow up watching veggies hop around telling Bible stories), like Kirishima and Kaminari combined."

Showed her this Bunny Legend page

I"Oh my frick! It's a raspberry bunny! Like a raspberry bunny from Redwall! Like if Kirby ate a bunny! Oh my freaking gosh it's like if kirby ate a pokemon! Oh gosh! He's cute! I wanna read it I wanna read it I wanna read it!"

(I converted her, lol)

That mostly sums it up, but I did show her a piece of fanart, and she told me that Hyrule looks like my old OC Fitz (I might post the art one day, lol, it was terrible!), Warriors is He-Man, and Four is a blone Tarzan.

Additionally, I told her some of them were shifters, and when telling her that manga Legend becomes what is essentially a werewolf she went "Are there any vampires?"

.....

I told her Wars was the closest to a vampire, but only because @mmmwafflesart made him one.

She did like the idea of Shadow though, go fig..

(If y'all are curious I might follow this up with her thoughts on Malon and Ravio, but those were recorded and I don't think she wants that chaos soundtrack out (my hands were too busy to type at the moment))

Hope y'all enjoyed. Sorry again to the Sky and Four stans out there!

[disorentedfae]

[raycatzdraws]

🥺 aa

He always looks like mmmwafflesart's Sky in my heart <3 The sketch reminded me of their art so I leaned into it with the vibrant colors. While we're here please go give Waffle's art some love! @mmmwafflesart

[ask-lu-wild]

He

@mmmwafflesart​ started this beautiful trend

eee I hadn’t done traditional art in months. But I bought some gold ink a while back and only used it once. I went a little crazy with it and I’m not as good with traditional, but I hope you still like the drawing.

[w1lmutt]

Art style challenge, linked universe edition! I also made a colored version to make it extra challenging (why am I like this?) And also because I think the coloring/palettes/shading is just as much a part of someone's style as everything else.

These are the lovely people who's art style I've used:

@mmmwafflesart @neeniidraw @wilimia @sabro_doodles on Instagram @elsewhere_artist on Instagram @thankyourluckystars13 @okkeso42 on Instagram (get a Tumblr you coward) and @koytix

You guys are so amazing and talented, I had a good time drawing in your styles. All of your comments and support on ig makes my heart melt, I love and appreciate all of you 🥺♥️

Keso, you're ok I guess

(jk, love you too, my lil bastard sibling (◡ ω ◡))

[navii-blaze]

Did the art style challenge, for @laris-art @ okkeo42 (Instagram) @mmmwafflesart @ the.iskraeon (Instagram) @kirii-thenotreally-kitten @galactic-fire-dragon @ thatshortkid (Instagram) and @ thatwildkid (Instagram).

It's in pencil and messy bc I don't have a lot of time to ink and color or digitalize it, so if I butchered your style, sorry 😅.

Meet the Creator!

Introducing: Waffles!

Commissions:  Not right now, but if people express interest, I will consider it!

Social Media:  Tumblr: @mmmwafflesart​​ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mmmwafflesart/

What's your artistic process like?

I spend the most time on linework. I typically start with a sketch and figure out the details during the line art phase. From there I add the base colors then go ham with the shadow and lighting! I make use of multiply and light layers a lot. 

Tell us a little bit about yourself!

Drawing is my hobby, and I like shitposts, music, and gaming :P

What kind of mediums do you like to use?

I used to do traditional art but nowadays it's mostly digital since that's what I have time and patience for. I also like to take photos of scenery and places I travel to, though that's been put on hold as of now.

What got you into art? what inspires you to keep creating art?

I've always loved drawing, but somewhere along the line lost motivation and stopped. I had been meaning to try out digital art and got a tablet, but it sat in dust until I got into Linked Universe. I met a lot of people who were really supportive and that was enough to get me drawing again! Now that I'm drawing again, I get inspired by surrounding myself with art at skill levels that I aspire to reach. It makes me want to continue learning and improving. Other than that, seeing people respond positively to my art, both serious and not, motivates me to continue sharing it.

What's your favorite/least favorite subjects to use in your art?

I love drawing facial expressions, and I need to work on drawing backgrounds 

What's the worst thing you had to draw?

uhh I drew the Linked Universe Links in the CDi style once, that was...something

Is there something that you struggled with that made you grow as an artist?

Just learning to draw digitally. I've been trying to figure it out this whole time, and I'm still figuring out a lot of things!

If you have any fun stories about the pieces you made, please do share!

The drawing with the nose sword is a perfect example of how ridiculous my art can get. I'm surrounded by enablers and it's only made me more powerful.

Okey, me acabo de dar cuenta que difícil es escribir mis teorías en dos idiomas... Y de manera organisada y a tiempo.

Bueno, por lo tanto, quisiera recomendar algunas cosas.

¿Le gusta música orquestal? Escuchen a Hylian ensemble, ROZEN, REVEN, Orchestre de Jeux Vidéo, Theophany (aunque solamente han producido música basada de la mascara de Majora), y TPR.

¿Prefieren la música original? scrapper9000, shadowatnoon, Tenpers Universe, y Yoonchiya (tomen en cuenta que hoy en día es difícil encontrar la música original porque la empresa es muy... inflexible).

¿Le gusta arte? Me ecanta el estilo de 10yrsy, 2xlee, anxioussailorsoldier, cherrypaii, cocky!, frulleboi, jojo, Kaenith, la_sera_art, lemonlurkrr, lily_blossom3, Lunian, macaroonkitti, mjoyart, mmmwafflesart, narsh, parksrway, pisu1107, Sketchwakusei, smilesrobotlover, w1lmuttart, y muchos, pero muchos más.

¿Cuentos? La verdad, no he buscado muchas ficciones de fans... Honestamente, no me gustaría tener una experiencia desagradable con lo que hay. Pocos años atrás fue lo que arruinó Pokémon por mi, no sé cómo describirlo exactamente. De todas maneras, sí me ha gustado mucho los relatos de 10yrsy, Akira-Himekawa, frulleboi, jojo, Lunian, Sketchwakusei, y smilesrobotlover.

Por último, recomiendo las teorías de VortexxyGaming.

Por favor, ¡comparten sus recomendaciones sin miedo! Me encantaría conocer más estilos de arte, música, lo que sea sobre este tema.

Okay, I just realised how challenging it is to write my theories in two languages... And in an organised and scheduled way.

For that reason, I would like to recommend some things.

Do you like orchestral\instrumental music? Listen to Hylian ensemble, ROZEN, REVEN, Orchestre de Jeux Vidéo, Theophany (although they only composed music inspired by Majora's Mask), and TPR.

Do you prefer the original soundtrack? scrapper9000, shadowatnoon, Tenpers Universe, and Yoonchiya (keep in mind that nowadays it's difficult to find the original soundtracks because the company is too... strict).

Do you like artworks? I love the styles of 10yrsy, 2xlee, anxioussailorsoldier, cherrypaii, cocky!, frulleboi, jojo, Kaenith, la_sera_art, lemonlurkrr, lily_blossom3, Lunian, macaroonkitti, mjoyart, mmmwafflesart, narsh, parksrway, pisu1107, Sketchwakusei, smilesrobotlover, w1lmuttart, and many, many more.

Stories? To be honest, I have not searched for many fanfictions... Truthfully, I would not like to have unpleasant experiences with what there is. That's what ruined Pokémon for me a few years ago, I'm not entirely sure how to describe it. Nevertheless, I do enjoy the short stories of 10yrsy, Akira-Himekawa, frulleboi, jojo, Lunian, Sketchwakusei, and smilesrobotlover.

Lastly, I recommend VortexxyGaming's theories.

Please share any recommendations you might have! I would love to know more about art, music, or whatever, really, regarding this topic.
