Wind Waker: Tetra

Description

Here is my painting of Tetra, from Nintendo's The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, and Phantom Hourglass.

In the game, she's portrayed as a young girl, but I thought I'd paint her as a young adult. (Mainly because I can't draw little kids, and I like her as an adult; somehow a young girl leading a burly band of pirates is a little unrealistic, but hey, that's Zelda for you. =p )

Also, I don't think I've seen any fan art of Tetra as an adult, so I guess mine would be the first, here. :shrug:
I tried to portray her spirit, sass and leadership with this piece. Hands on hips and a cheeky expression seems to do that.

Drawing this was very fun, and colouring too, even though I coloured her pretty simply. I chose to use two shades for each colour instead of three like I've done in the past. I'm thinking of painting this with more detailed shading in the future.

Anyway, I hope you like this. Thanks for looking. :D

Holy cow Tetra looks awesome! She definitely looks like she could captain a pirate ship! Her face looks very confident, and her pose gives her the sass we all know and love Tetra for :D Also, I'm jealous of your ability to draw her hair. I can never figure out how to draw it so that it looks like her cool swirly bun without looking super stiff and cartoony :(
