Zelda 1 inspired Link Recolor: NOW WITH POLL

Postby Mattheww00 » Sun Sep 13, 2015 9:59 am

I recolored the 1hp, 2hp, and Fire Link sprites to look like the normal, blue, and red "tunics/rings" from the original Zelda for a map I am working on. Click the image to download.

I got the original LoZ Link colors from here.

Edit: Here is an example of link without the black lines, for the poll Image
Edit2: Now with another poll option Image (Edit3: Changed the rod slightly to look good)

Also, I broke the 3 color rule on the sword in reference of the fact that in Zelda 1, the sword sprite is separate from the player one, allowing for a breaking of the rule in there too.
Spoiler: show
Also, does anyone here remember me? If so, you might remember I used to attempt to make custom graphics, unsuccessfully, but I decided I'll stick to recoloring with slight edits... I hope you give me another chance

Sorry, no one cares about others here. People care only about popular veterans and staff.

As for the graphic, it's a nice recolor of the Link playable. Can be useful in some 8-bit projects!

You should keep the black lines. He really supposed to look that flat, without shading?

The middle option...blech. It wouldn't even look good.

Between the brown or black lines, I can't really decide. I'm leaning towards black.
