You may indeed! All of these are procreate defaults

-For a more painting-esque style, i use Salamanca (painting)

-For sketching, i use Narinder Pencil and 6B Pencil (both in sketching)

-For linework i use a modified Inka, Dry Ink, a modified Fine Tip, and Marker (all in inking)

-misc favorites are Thylacine and Gel pen (inking), Aurora and Hartz (artistic), pretty much everything in textures, Splatter and Flicks (spraypaints), Honeyeater (vintage), and Water Flicks (water)

i have no strong opinions on shadlink. i can't deny however that it'd be really cute. i like him as a peer figure to link, someone who'd taken up the pen instead of the sword, but looks up to someone with the guts to do what he couldn't. there's some idle resentment hidden in shad where, yes, he's passionate about what he does, but it was also kind of thrust upon him by his father... in the game, there's not really enough to work off of with the two of them!

... but in the manga, where shad tags along to the sky temple, THAT would have been so fun to experience in-game! the manga really butchers his personality, so i wonder how it would have gone. maybe his admiration for link would have been more along the lines of sidon? so many ways this could go. they'd make fast friends, for sure, and cute boyfriends who fill each other out well.
