@ultimateking2238 3 жыл бұрын

The way his model works is that he has a base model that looks like a buzz cut and the rest is the no clothes model. The hair is a different model, likely to not interfere with the hats, and clothes are completely separate. I believe the model shown in this video is the model used in the memory cutscenes.

OoT Young Link: 726 Tris MM Young Link: 722 Tris I like how the version of Young Link that has *less* polygons looks much better because it actually portrays his appearance like in his artwork. Ocarina of Time Young Link tried his best to match his artwork at the time but his model lacks his shoulder belt, has wide clothes, poofy hair, lack of sideburns and hair color being almost orange. Meanwhile, Majora's Mask Young Link looks just like his *actual* artwork of the game. He has his belt over his shoulder, his clothes are less wide, his tunic collar has been reworked, and his hair looks more on par to his concept art, being less poofy, more evenly split and having a lighter shade of yellow/orange.

The most acccurate term would be sidelocks, since they aren't facial hair like sideburns but rather grow from the head just in front of the ears. Bangs grow from the head above the forehead and usually only go down to the eyebrows. Orthodox Jews wear sidelocks called Payot.

Also the skyward sword link model has much rounder and smoother shapes ccompared to TP's link model, despite it having less details. The more rounder and smoother the shapes are to make the models, the more polygons it will take. I'm surprised the creator of this video/series hasn't notice this as yet.
