LoZ1--Gleeok.jpgLoZ1 Gleeok583 viewsThe dragon, Gleeok. In this case, it is (or WAS) three headed. And two of the heads (including the severed one flying about) is missing their mustaches--maybe Link gave them a shave when going for the heads.
Anyway, I used the official art as my reference.DBoyWheeler

LoZ1--Manhandla.jpgLoZ1 Manhandla505 viewsThat pain in the tail Piranha Plant wannabe, Manhandla. I mean it--even the Magic Shield is no match for this weed. Your only hope is to use a bomb to kill it in one hit! Anyway, here's Manhandla.
My main reference was the official art in the manual.DBoyWheeler

LoZ2_Hammer.jpgZelda 2 AoL Hammer504 viewsThe Hammer of Zelda 2: Adventure of Link, inside the caves in Death Mountain.

LoZ2_Fairy.jpgZelda 2 AoL Fairy Spell499 viewsLink probably had trouble getting the keys, so he's using the Fairy Spell to get through a door in the Maze Palace, in Zelda 2: Adventure of Link.
Sprites, official art, and screenshots were references (as well as artistic license). See "Zelda 2 AoL Shield Spell" for why the name of the spell is not in the artwork itself.DBoyWheeler

LoZ2--Wizzar.jpgZelda 2 AoL Wizzar497 viewsWizzar, the Wizzrobe relative (and disciple of Carock) from Zelda 2: Adventure of Link. Yes, Wizzar is its official name--I checked it in a Zelda Wiki.
I used a sprite as a character reference, and for the location, I once again used VGMaps (in this case, Maze Island Palace).DBoyWheeler

LoZ2_Candle.jpgZelda 2 AoL Candle494 viewsThe (red) Candle in Zelda 2: Adventure of Link, which makes traversing caves MUCH safer.
Here it is in the first palace--Parapa Palace! Crack crack crack the egg into the bowl! (Get it? Oh, never mind.)

Ganon.jpgGanon491 viewsThe evil pig demon of DOOM!
I found a reference a long time ago, but I forgot which it was. All I know is it was an official art of Ganon in Zelda 1.DBoyWheeler

LoZ2_Shield.jpgZelda 2 AoL Shield Spell488 viewsThe Shield Spell from Zelda 2: Adventure of Link. Link is using it in Parapa Desert to get to the first Palace.
Now, I know that usually there should be the name of the spell here, but I forgot to put it up, and didn't realize it until I completed Jump Spell... by then, it was too late. So the spell artworks in my Zelda 2 stuff won't have the titles within the artworks themselves.
Anyway, as usual, sprites, screenshots, and official art were the references here.DBoyWheeler

LoZ2_Magical_Key.jpgZelda 2 AoL Magical Key486 viewsIt may not have a lion head, but the Magical Key in Zelda 2: Adventure of Link has the same purpose as the previous game--opening unlimited numbers of doors in Palaces... you'll need this in Three-Eye Rock Palace!
Here it is in New Kasuto Town.
I used the manual scan for reference for the key.DBoyWheeler

LoZ2--Megmut.jpgZelda 2 AoL Megmut485 viewsThe bouncing armadillo, Megmut. Well, the official art (which I used as a reference) of Megmut looks like an armadillo to me.
Anyway, it's another Zelda 2: Adventure of Link enemy.DBoyWheeler

LoZ2SkullWarriorByDBoy.jpgZelda 2 AoL Skull Warrior484 viewsThe Skull Warrior, alias Paratamu, from Zelda 2: Adventure of Link.
Here he is patrolling the Midoro (Swamp) Palace. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the Midoro Palace is the Skull Warrior's first debut.
Anyway, I used a sprite as the reference, and I once again show how much I suck at drawing skeletons.DBoyWheeler

LoZ2_Life.jpgZelda 2 AoL Life Spell483 viewsLink patching up his wounds with the Life Spell in Zelda 2: Adventure of Link.
