How to Draw Christmas Link, Link From Legend of Zelda

Step 1.


Before you say anything, yes this will be a full bodied lesson. Start by making the circle guide for the head, then make the rectangular shape for the body. Add the facial guidelines then proceed to step two.

Step 2.


The next thing you will need to do is draw out the shape of his face, then sketch in the long bangs, and back of his head.

Step 3.


Before you get to drawing Link's face, you will need to finish drawing the hair. When that is done add the ear, draw the thick eyebrows, then draw in the thick lining that forms the shapes of his eyes. Color in the pupils, then add a nose and mouth.

Step 4.


Instead of his normal hat, we will draw him wearing a Santa hat. Make the hat sway to the left like so, then draw the neck and collar of his shirt.

Step 5.


Continue the task by drawing the torso or his entire vest or overthrow. When that is done draw the belt along with the Christmas tree bulbs attached to the waist.

Step 6.


Draw Link's left arm and hand like so, then sketch in the legs, boots and feet. You will need to sketch in some detailing on the clothing like wrinkles, creases, folds, and scuff marks.

Step 7.


Finish Christmas Link by drawing his other arm, but instead of it resting on his side, you will draw him holding a sack of goodies for the kids in his village. Add some detailing to the arm and sack like so, then erase the mistakes and guides.

Step 8.


That's it, you're done. Now color in Christmas Link then show folks what you have done.

Description: Okay so most of the tutorials going up today will be based on some of our favorite characters from video games dressed in holiday attire. I really wanted to start with the blond headed kid that has made through the hero stage more than once. Here is "how to draw Christmas Link", step by step. When my brother saw the colored drawing of this version of Link he literally flipped out because he said this was the best version of Link he has ever seen. I personally think it's the bright colors that makes Link so attractive looking. The red hat and vest mixed with a brighter shade of green from his shirt really brings out the color in Link's hair. Anyways, drawing Christmas Link will definitely put a smile on your face. When your done with this lesson, you can tackle another fun tut that will be on the front page in a short while. My suggestion to you, stay tuned in to Dragoart.com to see what pops up next.
