Hi, I'm Melora, the main source of scanned #Zelda art & out-of-print publications since The Internet. I was also the lead campaigner for Zelda manga & art/info books to exist outside of Japan. Join me as I try to create a gallery of every piece of licensed Zelda art via collecting & with your help!

been working on some older and newer nakano-inspired Ocarina of Time Link drawings

I can't believe Deltarune made me dust off my cintiq and clip studio for the first time in two and a half years #deltarune #mr.tenna #spamton

Another update to the #Zelda #OcarinaOfTime gallery. I uploaded some good art @lalam24.bsky.social has made sure we're not missing. There's still some alt color versions of Link art I need to sort though but it's still the most complete gallery for OoT if you're looking for inspiration: #Nintendo

I was double checking that some things were in the #zelda #oot gallery and I just want to thank @lalam24.bsky.social again for having such an eagle eye and helping us all out so much by making sure some of the best Link art doesn't get overlooked or lost. He found the 2nd one in a dev talk:

I just scanned and uploaded a really rare Adventure of Link Strategy Guide Magazine by Akita Shoten (1987) リンクの冒険 エキサイト 撃破本 #zelda #nintendo #famicom Find it here: archive.org/details/zine...

Here are the artworks of #ZeldaOcarinaofTime shared this day on Nintendo today for Link. We can see an unknown variation of Link's illustration with the ocarina of time where he's drawn entirely and with open eyes (that's completely the base for OoT Link's amiibo).

Clemoya also mentioned the eyes are open. The Amiibo fully emulates this look, I wonder if this was actually done originally, or made for the amiibo? Maybe it was based on the amiibo?

Damned Link was entirely drawned on this artwork ?! @historyofhyrule.com

I FOUND IT on my backup drive

my favorite area in ocarina of time is the forest temple. took some screenshots with aegiker's link viewer, using the angrylion plugin to make it more n64 accurate.

Really cute #zelda Minish Cap village concept art that I don't believe was online before I grabbed the Sept 17, 2004 issue of Famitsu Weekly Magazine. The Minish Cap gallery is one of the few I have "completed" with everything we know about so far: www.flickr.com/photos/histo...

Boss & dungeon art from the 1986 Bandai Hyrule Fantasy #zelda board game that I scanned & cleaned up at 1200dpi. I made the Ganon card just so there'd be a full visual set for fun. archive.org/details/merc... JairuNait scanned Aquamentus for us ❤️ because my set is missing him 😢

I'm scanning another old #Zelda guide from 1986 and decided to clean up this image of a green-haired Princess Zelda while waiting for each one to finish.

Someone asked me to find something they couldn't find so I made this when I promised to find it for them. lol

I like how some 1986 Wizzrobe art for #Zelda 1 has them with a bird beak instead of a nose. (The manual art shows a nose but a lot of early, officially licensed, guides have the beak-art)

New 600-2400dpi Scans: Here's version, or volume, no. 1 of the 1986 #zelda 1 guide published by Futami Shobo. Some of the maps in these are so perfectly painted that I actually thought they were screenshots at first and had to come back to high-res scan them: archive.org/details/guid...

Cover of Valiant Comics no 4, v1 (Aug 1990) : historyofhyrule.com/publications... (Scans: Kitty & ChiChi) This Super Show/Captain N/Comics Zelda is the one I grew up with so it's always been really sad-yet-hilarious to me when people use to get pissy about giving her a stronger role in the games.

This is me; totally forgetting to actually play games & just gathering material for scanning while everyone else does, lol A quick search & I didn't find this online, so it might be "new" #mario art. It's absolutely new #zelda art. I'm doing the whole book so hopefully it will be up in a few days

I 3D scanned the complete set of the Super Mario Bros. 3 keshi figures released in Japan by Bandai in 1988! You can download all 24 figures from my Internet Archive page here: archive.org/details/kesh...

I enjoy the process ---------------- #art #workinprogress #Supermarioworld #gameart #fanart #jewelry #sculpture

Ocarina of Time Link's height.. again. About as precise as I can get it for now. (Big thanks to Aegiker for the tools)

New scans! This guide for #Zelda 1 was done in 1994 for the re-release & you'll notice the art reflects that era instead of earlier ones (by this time guides weren't usually anything but very trademarked looking art,) and it's SO CUTE. THE ART IN THIS IS ADORABLE! Here: archive.org/details/guid...

Calling the Four Giants — After the events of Majora’s Mask, the 4 Giants search for the souls that were lost in their absence. They reconvene in Ikana to reflect on what happened, what was experienced, and how they plan on moving forward despite the failures they felt. #4GiantsAU #FourGiantsAU

Taking the time to find out who designed who in Ocarina of Time. It's a shame people like to rip on the N64 models. A lot of love and care went into them. Nakano's 2D art was exceptional, but it's important to note he was basing his art on the models after they were already designed.

I'm uploading some game mags but to save time I'm not editing them. If anyone wants to & upload them themselves: please do. But this way they'll be "readable" while I work on #zelda art. Here's the Groovy 1998 Oct & Dec German Club Nintendo archive.org/details/zine... archive.org/details/zine...
