I understand your arguments. The problem is, I'm not the one who has to be convinced. It's Patreon's rules and they are *not* nice about enforcing them. If they think the version of the character isn't old enough, they won't kindly ask me about it and hear my explanation, they'll shut the whole page down and send me a letter asking me to remove any offending works and apply to be reinstated when that is done. I've seen it happen to several other artists, and some of them never were allowed to re-open their pages. It's not something I'm willing to risk.

Some of the outfits from Warriors are ONLY referencing games - and since the art style is so different, it’s hard to mistake them as actually being those versions. (And unlike some versions of Impa, she’s just captain of the guard there, implying Zelda is of age. If we assume she is the same age as Link - adult versions are somewhere between 17 and 20, so more likely that she is of age than not.)

I prefer to have solid answers on age and avoid doing things like "This is the legal age Zelda wearing the costume of an underage Zelda" to skirt the rules. It's entirely possible that sort of thing can work, but it's also entirely possible that it won't work. If it got reported and I got an uncharitable person looking at the piece, they would probably just rule "if it looks like this version of the character, then it is this version of the character"

More obscure characters can be fun to work with too; this event was a poll so it ending up with one of the more popular characters winning is to be expected. xD

(How do you reply one mobile...) Zelda is only Chronologically 117 if BotW - but based on her appearance I would estimate around 18. (As long as nobody can prove otherwise, you can handwave it.) Partially because Hyrule Warriors has outfits from many things, including BotW and Twilight Princess. (Her model looks more like TP, than any of the other versions...)

Unfortunately, I can't find what age Zelda is in the first Hyrule warriors; and in Age of Calamity she is 17. As far as I've researched, BotW Zelda is 117, BotW II Zelda is either 117 or 118, and Twilight Princess Zelda is 20.

Honestly a little dissapointed i feel like there is far too much zelda stuff out there already people should give lesser charecters some love too

Couldn’t you base it on any of the outfits from Hyrule Warriors?
