Hidey ho, everybody! Happy Holidays and Happy New Year to y'all! :-) I haven't worked on my 3D stuff in a loooooooong time, due to a combination of college schoolwork and general laziness ;-) But now, at long last, I'm back to work on Princess Zelda! Anyway, if you recall, last time I posted I was asking for advice/feedback on how her hair came out. Well, I jus' finished a new version of it, which I happen to think came out much better than the old one! Whatcha think? :-)

Looking good. Out of personal preference, I'd like to see more fullness at the front/top of the hair, a bit of poofiness (no, not that kind of poof). And maybe a slightly longer, less defined nose? The ears are amazingly perfect.

Well, thanx muchly! Actually, the hair originally WAS fuller/poofier in the front. But I decided that it didn't look as good that way; plus, it wasn't as accurate to the real hair as this new one is. Here's the reference pic; see what I mean? Actually, I like the nose as-is :-) And as for the ears, I wish I could take credit for those, but the morphs aren't mine. CrystalDragon made em for me :-)

Wow! Your comic looks superb to me.

Lol! Thanx muchly, but I assume you mean the model; I didn't draw the comic ^_^

Yeah, I remember. Like I said, it was personal preference :) Zelda is coming along nicely. It won't be too long now before Link will have to save her... Again.

Jumped in too kwik cos the comic really did grab my attention. But sure... treat my comment as a reverse compliment, as I easily made the connection, and jumped to the conclusion that your model was used to make the comic.

lhiannan: Thankee kindly :-) Yup, I reckin it's gonna be damsel-savin' season purty soon! Yeehaw! ;-) caulbox: Lol! Thanks muchly again! Having your work mistaken for official Nintendo art -- now THAT's some majorly high praise! ;-)

Looks like Zelda is comming along just fine!

You know, I was just wondering about her the other day and was going to post and ask you how she was coming along! (I've been playing Windwaker on my son's Nintendo and so I started thinking about your Zelda project;-) Can't wait till she's finished!!

I've got Link & Zelda stuck in my head now.

Here's something just for fun while we wait on the better Zelda :D Linkiro & Zeldishi for your viewing pleasure.

The nose has almost enough curvature, but should be a bit pointier. It looks too human right now. She's coming along prettily, though.

I was wondering what you were up to the other day. Now I know. Looks great, can't wait to see her finished.

Hair looks really nice. Are you doing a morph character for the preteen or Vicki? Which figure is the character for?

It's V2.

Whoa! Lotsa posts since last night! :-D Thanx to all the various "Looking good" comments and their authors ;-) lhiannan: .....wow. That is just awesome!!! HOW did you make Zelda's dress?!?! Especially the sash hanging from the hips; the design on it is absolutely, 100% PERFECT!!! Did you make that yourself?!

The dress is Koshini's Smooth Gown from the Classic Elegance pak and the China Dress by Motsura. The sash is made from the KoShawnene Armor (as are the paldrons) and then I cropped the sash in your reference image, made a transparency for it and stuck it on a scaled cube, lined it up with the belt and... viola, instant Zelda Cloth. I doubt the texture would be distibutable, since it's snagged from Official Art), tho.

Very impressive! :-)
