Having covered our favorite fan-made Link artwork two days ago, we're sharing with you our most beloved official pieces today. These illustrations from the Official Nintendo Player's Guide books that supplemented A Link to the Past and Link's Awakening have always been, without a doubt, our favorite art for The Legend of Zelda series.
Their use of color and light sources vividly recreate scenes from the early NES, Game Boy, and SNES games better than anything we've ever seen before. We have dropped a few choice images from the books past the break so you can see what we mean -- don't miss out!

Wow. I've to admit, I'm pretty impressed. I have this top piece with Gannon blown up on a poster in my room. It's amazing and the links awakening guide was a bitch to get a hold of. I'm glad you like it as much as I do.
