"Badass" Link artwork?

I remember many months ago someone posted on another forum a picture of Link with a beard and being all badass. It was from deviantart. I think these pictures are fun, though I dont think the world is ready for that.

I mean Link although part of a family-oriented game series, is one little man one a big quest. Kicking ass along the way with his cool weaponry. He may not be designed to be badass, but you know that little dude is a super bad man inside.

Post any pics you find that are fanart thats a "badass" version of anything Zelda.

Heres the pic:


So, we gotta find some pics of badass Link? Iv'e seen a few over the past year or so. I'll post some if i'm still able to find them online.

I love that pic! Viking Link is awesome! Also thats the same artist that did my favorite Snape fanart ever.

That's actually kind of scary.

I didn't know Link smoked.

Nothing can beat this that I know of.

It's the Link from your nightmares.

He has one heart but 100% defense.

I like his belt. He looks fierce. In the fashion sense and badass sense

That image is indeed a bit on the freaky side, but good job to whomever made it.

Browsing his gallery i found this:

Man! Both of these pics are just too cool!

definitely cool. ill add my own sketches soon. they wont be color though.

i also think the cigarette in his mouth is over the top and comical. if he didnt have the cig in his mouth it might remind me of an actual future Link in an alternate universe.

hahaha, there's a ton of people out there that portray Link differently than the series does.

...so wait, are you looking for the different portrayals, or are you looking for badassness? I have a ton of each in my favorites on my dA.

different (some badassness contained within):
