Linkzelda41's Drawings

**Linkzelda** · 10-17-2011 11:34 PM

These are just a few drawings I've done. I have more, but I'm too lazy to upload them one by one on deviant art. I don't really draw much, it's just when I have a lot of free time. Not really that good compared to the gods in deviant art, but drawing is a way I become innocent. What sucks is that one girl I drew basically thought I was pathetic when she realized I was going with someone who wasn't even real lol, and I spent all day and night drawing her when I had a summer break

I know there a lot of mistakes in them, but it doesn't really matter since most of these people (except the celebrities of course) were happy with that I did for them.

Man you have some serious skill.

**Linkzelda** · 10-17-2011 11:59 PM

Thank you!

**Dark_Merlin** · 10-18-2011 07:27 AM

Hot damn! That's really impressive! What materials are you using? I really like your shading style

**Linkzelda** · 10-18-2011 02:28 PM

Thank you!

I use a graphite pencil set with different highlights and darks. I use blending stumps to smooth out the drawings. I use circulism where I make small circles in an area, and then use the stump to make it smooth like human skin. I also use a knead eraser for any mistakes, and it prevents oil (most of it) from getting on the paper.

I would do colored drawings, but I'm not going to pay $100+ for something that might break

**tommo** · 10-19-2011 12:58 PM

Pretty damn good man. What do you mean $100+ for something that might break?

How old are you btw? I have a feeling you're going to get very very good.

**BobbyLance** · 10-19-2011 01:01 PM

You've got a great talent in art my friend. Wished I can become like you

Oh Like Prisma Color Pencil sets with practically every color you can imagine. I'm 18 years old. But with college and all, I don't do it as much (Hopefully mastering WILDing will let me study for exams and give me more time to draw) . I hope that I get better, but every time I draw someone, I feel like crap because even though I did it, what purpose did it serve me? Know what I mean?

And Thank you so much for your comment

Thank you so much! You can be better at drawing, it isn't impossible, it's just like Lucid dreaming, it's a skill that can be mastered if you are motivated to push forward. But I just split drawing off towards a different personality, I get a little too "into" if you know what I mean

**jojo946** · 10-19-2011 05:10 PM

wow..i wish i knew how to draw like you..but my drawing skills are literally *bleh*

**Linkzelda** · 10-19-2011 05:18 PM

Practice makes perfect

**Quantiq** · 10-19-2011 05:20 PM

Wow you have some great talent. Your drawings are very nice. I like how you do people's hair, very unique style.

**Linkzelda** · 10-19-2011 05:21 PM

Thank you very much!

**Oneironaut Zero** · 10-19-2011 06:00 PM

Very good work, man.

Keep it up. You've definitely got skill (and potential for development). Portraits (IMO) are some of the hardest things to draw. There's so much that can be lost, by not capturing essence of a person, that you don't have to deal with, when doing inanimate still-life. Good stuff. Looking forward to seeing more!

**Linkzelda** · 10-19-2011 11:15 PM

Thank you so much for your kind words!

Oh yeah, prismacolours can break easily. I love and hate them. They're so good for drawing and feel great, but they break constantly, even just sharpening them.
And yeah I totally used to get that feeling too. I think it's been pushed in to our brains that we have to get something tangible for our efforts or it's not worth it.
You just have to ignore the people who tell/have told you that.
As long as you enjoy it, it's worth it. And also making other people happy because you've drawn their portrait can be nice.

Yeah, seeing their reactions is fun. But there was one girl that I drew, I didn't realize she liked me. I was wondering why she wanted to offer cupcakes that she could make as a reward. I ended up being a bit immature and went on a relationship that was fake on Facebook (I'm so nerdy

) She ended up getting pissed amd blocked me (why would a girl block me for something silly like that if she wasn't concerned about my well-being while other girls were laughing at the fake relationship?

). So I felt bad that I made her angry in a few days, but at least she knows that I drew her, and it's going to be engrained in her memory. That's one benefit of drawing these people, they really can't find a way to hate me without having feelings of guilt from asking me to draw them in the first place. MIND GAMES

Great photos man, very chilling. Seem almost post-apocalyptic or something.

**Linkzelda** · 02-14-2012 04:40 PM

Bump.

Some drawings I did when I was going back to grid drawing in High School.

Spoiler for Random Drawing:

Spoiler for I'm not really good at making cut hair realistic xP:

Spoiler for The positioning here is a bit awkward, and I think I was just rushing this to finish a project, so it looks a bit weird...:

I just grabbed these from my Facebook Profile, too lazy to individually submit each piece to Deviant Art

**~~Alyzarin~~** · 02-14-2012 05:39 PM

These are really good, Link.

I still think you should've tried to redo the one of that girl from the sexy hawt females thread.

**Linkzelda** · 02-14-2012 05:42 PM

Thanks, Alyzarin!

I'll give it a shot sometime.

**Linkzelda** · 02-20-2012 08:02 PM

Bump.

Spoiler for Old free hand drawings...:x I look weird, but I blame free hand drawing :P:

This was a some thing I had to do for Day of The Dead in Art II I believe. I decided to draw Michael Jackson in different ages. I wasn't really good at getting his genuine smile since I mostly free handed before I started to conform to mostly grid drawings.

Spoiler for Michael Jackson:
