Okay, it’s FINALLY finished. This was done by the request of StarRanger :iconstarranger:, who asked me to draw the Zelda: Ocarina of Time characters in an American Highschool setting. Sorry it took so long. Things came up and the project was put on the back burner for a while there. Someone also requested a bit later that I include Ruto somehow, but I’m afraid it was too late after all. My layout was already established. It just would have been too cluttered. I sized it so that it should fit pretty well as a desktop background, ‘case anyone was interested in that. At least, it fits my screen pretty well.

Anyway, explanation time:

Link’s persona is that of the ‘it’ guy, athletic and popular, who happens to be the object of all the females’ affections….. naturally.

Saria is sort of a ‘girl next door’ type of personality. She doesn’t follow the whole girly girl thing and she’s been Link’s lifelong best friend. But never more than that… until now.

Zelda is the rich, beautiful, popular girl who’s just transferred to this school. She already has her eye on Link and Link seems to share the affection. This does not go unnoticed by Saria, who is brooding in silent jealousy for the moment.

Malon is pretty much the same as Zelda, though she hasn’t recently transferred. She has befriended Zelda and is showing her around her new school. Malon is the sort who is always up to speed on the latest gossip, which is why she takes note of Link and Zelda’s connection here.

Off to the side, there’s the poor Skull kid, who is your typical nerdy whelp at the bottom of the social food chain. He has just tripped (guess who tripped him) and his pet fairy (insect specimen) has escaped as a result, ruining his entomology presentation.

Ganondorf and his Stalfos lackey are your typical badass bullies/troublemakers. Not much more to say.

In the background is the old chemistry teacher (the scientist at Lake Hylia). He’s quite eccentric and many of the students don’t take him too seriously, as he seems to be oblivious half the time. He should have retired, like, fifty years ago. Despite his outward demeanor, he often proves to know exactly what he’s talking about when it really matters. Some of the more perceptive students have learned to trust him.

Farther back, there’s Principal Rauru (Sage of Light). He’s the gruff, but lovable principal. He’s a hardass, but he means well. You may notice he looks ready to deal out a couple of well-deserved detentions at the moment.


So, that’s it. I hope you all like!

Thanks and million for doing this. They all came out great, espeacily Zelda. I like the idea of the scientist from lake hylia as the chemist teacher. Great job. Presents medal.
Thanks and you're welcome.
That is kind of interesting. I guess this piece took you a while to create. Sadly, I don't see Ruto anywhere. I hope she is not like a science experiment or something, LOL(sort of).

Well, still a good job.

Now, are you going to promise a version with Link and Ruto together as a High School couple and best friends together? I kind of asked you that a while ago and you said you would do that after my guess is you did the so call bigger picture here. The reason I kind of asked you because I still think they go perfect together and also I LOVE the couple SO much.

So it would be nice to make one for me. You would just have to explain to the others why you are making an alternative couple. And you might as well come up with a cool alternative story of how they got together. It would be as cool and funny if they do a school Prank on Zelda since neither would like the annoying popular rich girl. And maybe Link doe not have to try to be the popular guy in this alternative version, but is very happy that he and Ruto are together, and that what all that matters to Link.

Well, I hope I see the Link/Ruto high school couple thing sometime Starbat. Don't forget, you promised me!

I don't think I ever promised. All I ever said was maybe. In any case, I don't expect I'll be doing any Zelda fanart for a while.


In the words of Leonardo DaVinci in Ever After, "A bird may love a fish, but where would they live?"


Thanks anyway for the comment.
Sorry, I guess I forgotten since it was a very looong time ago. And I guess I forgot the word maybe. Sorry I sounded so forceful.

But if you are still willing to do that, I would be happy. I can always wait for it. Besides I have fanfictions to keep me busy and also I will maybe get a job soon. So no rush my friend.

Heh, yeah quite possibly.
let's just hope link stands up for the little people against gannondorf's gang... do you think you can draw a futuristic version of OoT?

Maybe later. I think I'm done with Zelda fanart for a while. It's a good idea though. :)
