Spin attack with Zelda from the Clockwork Empire design by Aaron Diaz. No tabard, scabbard, or equipment bags because I like sleep.
Amazing animation of my Zelda-as-the-hero game pitch, because once again, the internet is awesome.
Inspired by Anita Sarkeesian’s Video Game Tropes vs Women, I wanted to pitch a Zelda game where Zelda herself was the hero, rescuing a Prince Link.
Clockwork Empire is set 2,000 years after Twilight Princess, and is not a reboot, but simply another iteration in the Zelda franchise. It just so happens that in this case, Zelda is the protagonist. I’m a very big Zelda fan, and worked hard to draw from key elements in the continuity and mythos.
This concept work is meant to show that Zelda as a game protagonist can be both compelling and true to the franchise, while bringing new and dynamic game elements that go farther than being a simple gender swap.
Hope you like it!

While Nintendo isn’t likely to do something like this themselves, It would fit just as excellently into its own original setting.
If you get an indie developer to do something with this, please bring me on board for concept art, tia.

It’s time for a favorite sketches post… I need a boost, and not because I’m feeling like I can’t draw, but because this week has been terrible, and I’m trying to make up for it.
So, have some sketches both involving Zelda, Solar Kingdoms, and… Zelda AU’s and stuff!
