Zelda Fanartist List

  Wednesday, January 22, 2025   , ,


Artist who do at least some Zelda fanart

Since social media is burning down I'm going back to the old ways and keeping a hard link-list.
  • 2026/07/08: Started in January 2025 and I'm still adding artists.
  • To add yourself or someone comment on this Bluesky post, DM me, or email me.
  • Looking to add this mostly: Name. Common web handle. Website. 2 other links okay! Preferred: Linktree or Carrd type link-list, Bluesky, or another common site.
  • I am not direct linking to Twitter or Meta platforms. 
  • Let me know if one is an 18+ Page/Adult Themes account so I can tag it for people. Art must also be considered legal in the US. I may not have marked as Adult simply because I didn't see any NSFW artwork when I added the links. Browse the internet at your own risk.
  • I'm linking to artists I'm told do Zelda art. If I check back at these links and don't find any I may remove them. I'm mainly going off Bluesky accounts right now. You can find some Zelda Fanart lists from the tab in my Bluesky profile.

Lists on my Bluesky are loosely organized as such:

A New Publication Index

  Monday, January 20, 2025   , ,


I'm building a publication index that may be easier for some people to navigate than the main site. You can find it over to the side bar on a desktop or in a dropdown on mobile. Right now it has basic info for about 90 various Zelda manga and then links to where you can find other things. I'll be updating the cover photos in the flickr gallery to have the same info: because if you're like me you're a visual person and that will be easier for you to navigate. 

This is the link to the new, text based, publication index.


I'm also slowly cleaning things on the site up, trying to get everything current, updated, and less of a mess.

Valis Manga for Wanpakku Comics




私と徳間書店さんとのお仕事のお付き合いはこの銀色の「テレビランドわんぱっく」シリーズから始まりました。本文はかなり大き目のイラストと文章、短いマンガで構成されています。「わんぱっく」という名称もここから始まっています (Source)
My working relationship with Tokuma Shoten began with this silver "TV Land Wanpaku" series. The main text consists of fairly large illustrations, text, and short comics. The name "Wanpaku" also originated from this.



これが私の描いたマリオの最初期の形態かと思われます。おそらくテレビランドわんぱっくシリーズの「ファミリーコンピューター図鑑」に描いたドンキーコングのカットですね。(Source)

This is probably the earliest form of Mario I drew. It's probably a cut of Donkey Kong drawn for the TV Land Wanpaku series' "Family Computer Encyclopedia."
