Wielders of the Triforce


The theme this time around was The Legend of Zelda, and when I was trying to think of what I wanted to do, the wielders of the Triforce came to mind. In each of the pieces, I put the corresponding holder. And when trying to think of how to design it, I got to thinking... hey, maybe a monochromatic color scheme could be fun! Thus, each is colored in various shades of the color commonly associated with them.

This was done in Photoshop and Illustrator. Most of it is brushwork, but the shapes and the Hylian crest are shapes from Illustrator. Just couldn't resist those straight easy lines. Other than that, I'm happy to be doing some focusing on my painting skills. I'm still learning techniques and trying to nail down how I work, and I think I'm starting to get a decent feel for it finally.
