Zelda designs/DW designs...

I have a few WIP designs that I'd love advice on. And yes, I know Doctor Who is getting old in these parts xD But I'd still love to hear some advice on it.



I still haven't figured out where exactly I want to go with this design...I know the moon needs some work, but I can't decide if I want to make it a lake, or make Link sitting in the sky. Thoughts? My friend also says to make the background green because it's Link, but I like it this color...

And now for the Doctor Who...

Without colors:

Not that I think you can even tell what it is, but I am thinking of starting over. Not sure I'm happy with the more progressed result...



So, opinions on these works in progress would be really appreciated! I'm still a bit new to Illustrator...I've been using it less than a year...

    Ooh, it's his regeneration Sycorax-removed hand that Jack Harkness used as a Timelord detection thing.

    I'm a geek!!

    I thought about adding his glasses, but I wasn't sure. I also still need to add the pinstripes to the rest of his pants haha.

    Soooo, no one has thoughts on the Link design? I could use some friendly critique.

    Link is completely white. The mon is way mroe detailed wich makes the whole picture looks a bit awkward. So maybe change the moon like you said.

    And i think i will prefer dark green aswell.

    Ah yeah, I think I'll add some more detail to Link and maybe take away some from the moon...it might add some balance.

    For some reason the green just isn't doing it for me...it's what everyone keeps saying though lol.

    For the Zelda Shirt, I really don't think the green sits well. The Dark blue worked a lot better. Other than that, it looks pretty good, with some minor issues. The way Link is sitting looks a bit odd; It looks like he is balancing in a weird way... It's hard to explain, but to fix it, extending the board a little, and removing the gap between his legs and the board might help, if that makes sense. It looks like a reflection, as well, so maybe a water line in the back, or some ripples? It's very nice, I like it.

    The Zelda one reminds me of the Dreamworks Boy. I thought that was what it was supposed to emulate. It'd be neat if you kinda tied those two together. :)

    So I've played around with Link a bit more when I finally got the time. Fixed his arms (I mean, I wouldn't fish with my arms in the air like that lol. I meant to fix that long ago), and I'm playing around with the idea of him sitting in the clouds.

    @itiebitie, that was part of the inspiration for the design! :) I thought about having him sit in the moon but it just felt odd because the moon is so creepy...lol.

    @JellySnail, I tried ripples but it just did not look good. I had to flatten the moon to look more like a reflection and it just looked bad.

    I am happier with this one. I made the moon lumpier and added a FluffySpam. Idk. I still need to work on my Who design xD

    I like the arms better in this one, and I agree with the FluffySpam thing rather than the plank. The next game is set in the clouds so that works ;P
