Description
Haha I know it's the wrong game to quote that from, but I just thought I'd throw it in there because Fi is there kinda watching his back! (Even if all she does in the game is annoy the crap out of you)
I was playing around with my art style last night and came up with this! I wanted to do something with the background but I decided to leave it kind of ominous and dark.
Originally I was going to incorporate Zelda into this picture, but I ultimately decided to put Fi in instead because I figured Zelda wouldn't be with Link in the dungeons and stuff.
Anyway, hope you guys think this is cool or whatever!
EDIT: So a critique I got on this piece encouraged me to do something with the background so I made it look like they were walking through a cave and some vague image of image of Ghirahim is behind them! Thanks for the suggestion!

Overall
Vision Originality Technique ImpactYour unique drawing style in this really makes the piece, hands down. <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/w/w…" width="15" height="15" alt="
" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="387" title=" (Wink)"/> Your interpretation of Link and Fi is well-done and the styling works for the overall mood of the composition. You've stuck to the canon of what the characters look like in-game but given it your own flair. The posing and overall idea might not be wildly original, but the style is all your own and well done!The styling of Link and Fi may be what substantiates the originality and impact of this piece, but that same styling also results in a lack of impact by leaving the rest of the composition bare. The styling has such a strong personality of its own that leaving the background blank is underwhelming. You've made it clear via the colors, poses, and expressions that Link and Fi are to appear on-guard, ready for a fight or other abrupt situation that could be around the corner. In that regard, you succeeded greatly in setting the mood just in the character composition by itself. However, having a truly unfinished background with no detail whatsoever results in a highly anti-climactic setting and stifles the piece from portraying stronger emotion and mood. Adding some basic environmental attributes - greater background shadows, lighting, color dimension, etc - would add a lot of impact to the piece without actually adding any specific details of where Link/Fi are. If you did want to go a step further and put in some small details (cracks, bricks, stones, texture, etc) you could give a clearer suggestion of what Link/Fi are on-edge about while still giving the viewer the final say in what exactly is around the corner.
Overall, the piece is well structured and very creative in appearance but lacks that extra oomph that could be achieved with even some minor additions. I'd love to see this same piece with a unique backdrop done in a matching style to really give the whole thing that extra "wow". <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/w/w…" width="15" height="15" alt="
