Description
Fado from The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker.It is very rare I ever do a fan art. In fact, this is the first one on DA. So enjoy it, as I rarely ever draw them.
Character owned by Nintendo and the designers. Art by me.

Wow! I love the wind effect you put behind him, and the wonderful linework you did with him. The style kind of reminds me of something you'd see in a coffee shop. (Which is great!) Good work.
Mind though, if I ask how you managed the textures for the background? I'm just branching out into digital art, so my usual bag of tricks aren't applicable.

I draw on paper the finished linework, and then scan the paper textures in from my own personal scanner. I usually play with the layer modes (multiply, ect) until I get the amount of texture I want :]

Pretty clever! I love the hand-drawn look, but there's a lot I can't achieve without some digital tuning, trying for a best of both worlds thing I guess. lol
Thanks so much for taking the time out to help!
