Mmmm, progress.

And on my end -

The reason I went looking for (and very luckily stumbling into) new Zelda material last night was because I was looking at the concept artwork for reference. I'm really worshipping the painting style, and I'm trying to see if it's one I can emulate, because hey, it looks hella good, *and* I have some hope of figuring out how to pull it off (unlike some of the other artists I admire).

I think I'm relatively successful so far.

Damn straight you're successful, you've got it spot on. And is that possibly Sailor Mercury who you have done so beautifully?
I'm slightly alarmed at the lack of info out about the new game... last time things went this quiet everything changed dramatically. Oh why did Nintendo cancel Spaceworld?

That's evil-fied Sailor Mercury, from the live action series. I've still got about half of her body and the background to do =)

I wouldn't worry, Nintendo knows just how rabid the fans are over this - even three new screenshots gets them into a frenzy. They still have around a year before release, so there's a LOT of work to be done. Personally, I'm looking forward to (hoping for) how much the graphics will be improved from even this at release - remember what Ocarina of Time (http://media.ign64.ign.com/media/000/000437/img_1194486.html) and Wind Waker (http://media.cube.ign.com/media/017/017012/img_1290160.html) looked like early in development?
