♦ Rules ♦
1. Stay Civil
This is a place for friendly discussion, memes, guides, art, gameplay questions, screenshots and the like. Discrimination and harrassment won't be tolerated.
2. Mark Spoilers
It is okay to post about "related games" (such as Age of Calamity and Breath of the Wild) but please use the spoiler "censor" and do not put spoilers directly into the title, as the censor doesn't work this way. Posts about other Zelda games might be suited better in general Zelda communities, like the ones listed at the bottom of the sidebar.
3. Offtopic Posts
Anything not related to BotW, like politics, religion, non-Zelda games etc. is better suited elsewhere and will be removed. The same goes for NSFW material.
4. No Advertisements
It is okay to post about merchandise, but links to those "design your own merch" sites will be removed, as those are almost always scams featuring stolen art. Affliate links will be removed as well. This isn't Etsy.
5. Provide Sources
If you're going to post art, comics, guides, screenshots etc. that are not your own OC, please mention the name of the original creator and ideally also a link to their portfolio/website. (Pinterest is almost never the original source)
6. Suggestions are Welcome!
Feedback, requests for improvements and constructive criticism are always appreciated ;)

Why are you mixing two pieces of the Hero of Time outfit with the hat from ... the Armor of the Hero (or is that Wind Hero Cap?)?
Color doesn't quite match lol
It's not my work, but yeah, there's some color inconsistencies. I had it as my phone lock screen for months so I looked at it an awful lot lol. The Zonai parts look much brighter than they do in-game, and the saturation on the armor looks like it was adjusted as well. If I had to guess, they were shooting for an end result that more closely matched the tonality of the original Akira art.
As for the armor mismatch, it's possible that the original author/artist didn't have all of the pieces available and wanted to strike while the idea was fresh. I just try to appreciate it for what it is and not let the inconsistencies bug me.
