Howdy folks!!

An issue I had feared running into has come to pass: I have fallen out of the Legend of Zelda fandom. Therefore, my drive to create this comic has been slowly evaporating.

As this whole endeavour was a school project to answer a question, it is serving its purpose. Can I successfully create this comic? The answer (for now) is no.

I still have a love for this story I wish to tell, and I hope to continue this comic one day in the future. I will continue writing, and if I desire, may release some art I had before the hiatus/discontinue of this comic.

This isn't a forever goodbye, it is only a see you later.

Big thanks to my friend @icanuntanglewool who kept asking me about "how's your comic going". i love you, man!

i'm slowly getting better at this whole "comic drawing" thing. though, i do still struggle with it not looking really how i want it to. also, between updates would you guys like to see more sneak-peaks or would you like extras (screenshots of panels vs silly stuff) ? i feel like i don't put out enough stuff.

[zelda-a-new-age]

shout out to that one friend who keeps reminding me to work on my comic and just gets bombarded by all kind of spoilers while i show them how it's going.

seriously bestie i love you (and sorry for the spoiler-spam)

Credit to my friend Luciankiatshusband (@/lunalia_121 on Twitter) for letting me use the designs of "the two deities" that he made!! you'll be seeing more of them for sure!

[zelda-a-new-age]

got excited from chatting with some of the LM discord server so i decided to draw a Hylian Prince (Koridai) with my Hylian Prince (Zelden) Koridai teasing Prince Zelden about the usual things,

Koridai (left) belongs to Frulle of @linked-maze

Prince Zelden (right) belongs to Zaiah (me) of @zelda-a-new-age

i realized very quickly that Prince Zelden's redesign took some inspiration from two of the Linked Maze characters. He already had a lot of his features before i put him in the twink machine. (hair, circlet, etc) but it's quite funny to notice the similarities!

later in the story i'll draw him with his other character inspiration from LM!!

TW: blood.

just a few doodles,

i wonder why these are the choices? i wonder what could possibly be important about these items?

I finally got an icon!!!

this lovely image was done by my super cool friend Layla Costin or @/layla.drawz.funstuff on instagram! she was so gracious to work with me through all the revisions and edits.

New Age Extras: Crow Party Proposal!

I asked my friends for some questions to ask my characters. @vocafur sent me a screenshot and asked which character would attend a crow party.

it was a fun reason to add a fun fact; Prince Zelden collects origami paper boats! he loves them a lot!! he has MANY MORE not pictured here lmao.

transcript under the cut.

Panel one: Zelden: "what's a crow party? is it just a banquet with a company of corvids?" --- Panel two: image reads: "I told my friends that we should have a crow party where everyone brings and trades silver trinkets and we wear black and whoever brings the best object is crowned the crow lord/lady but they said that's a weird and bad idea so there will be no crow party" Zelden: Hmmm... --- Panel three: Zelden: "I don't think my Father would allow to me to give away silver, You can have one of my boats, if you'd like."

[zelda-a-new-age]

i got bored and so here, have a no-context sneak peak at a minicomic coming out soon

so. many. boats.

[zelda-a-new-age]

have a Prince Zelden, as a treat.

aaaaauuuugggghhh!!! i realized i accidentally used a massive brush to line his face. so he looks a little wonky.

i wanted it to look like the thing where you pick up cats under their arms and they stretch, and... i tried... picking up someone taller than you is tough!

the opacity on the face and hands of the character holding up was way down for some reason?? dunno how that slipped by me??
