SS Link and TP Link

Description

EDIT: Changed the title from "TP Link and SS Link" so that you wouldn't be confused and think it was TP Link to the left and SS Link to the right! Because it's not, it's the other way around xD

Just a little sketch ... I tried drawing these two next to each other so that I can clearly see the differences. It's SS Link to the left and TP Link to the right :) Before I knew about the differences, when I tried to draw SS Link it just looked like the Wii version of TP Link. Like here on this picture. [link] It's not a bad drawing, but SS Link doesn't look like that.

There are differences in their outfits as well, but why bother. I'm working on a project right now in which you get to see a full body picture of SS Link, so when it comes to drawing his tunic and such, I've had my practice ...

So here they're both looking like they do in the beginning of their respective games, before they got their caps, in other words, I guess this is "Pre-knight" Link and Ordon Link (or it's just them with their caps off, lol xD)

I wonder why I tend to draw SS Link looking more shy and cute than TP Link. I don't actually think there's much difference in their personalities, if any at all. But maybe that's just because I want a way to separate them. I think TP Link is the quiet cute guy type too but maybe SS Link is even more so? Lol xD I have no idea.
Maybe it's because SS Link has these bangs that cover up half his face and makes him look innocent xD

Actually, these two are very alike in appearance, but when I put them together like this they seem to look less alike than I first thought ... xD Even in the face. Maybe TP Link should have a rounder face because they seem to have the same face shape, but I drew it like this and I thought it looked like TP Link even without a rounder chin, so I left it like that.

One thing I don't like is that TP Link looks older than SS Link, doesn't he? I would bet TP Link is 17 years old, and Nintendo said that the SS Link is older than all the other Links, so I like to imagine SS Link is 19 years old, or something like that. But maybe it doesn't look like that here xD
Oh well, I guess SS Link just looks younger than he is or something. And I guess it's the difference in their expressions as well that makes TP Link look older.

Drawn with a pencil and quickly colored in the computer. (It's fun to color traditionally, but for this picture I didn't want to). I guess maybe the coloring looks sloppy, but I did it fastly, my drawing programme sucks, plus I thought the effect I created with the coloring was a bit cool xD
They have a slightly different hair and eye color, but I always thought TP Link seemed to have a different hue of blue than SS Link does, and it just looked good to me ... yeah.
I think TP Link looks more attractive in this sketch, lol. But SS Link is cute <3 xD

Anyway ... credits!
