Bringing beloved video game characters to life by any means possible is a quest many gamers embark upon. Artist G33k1nd159153 has created a set of Hyrulian paper bills that showcases characters from the Zelda video game series. Each bill design showcases a corresponding color from the in-game Rupees.
The concept art showcases several of the characters from the classic video game. The character Link is presented in green, which anyone who's a fan of the game will know suits the character perfectly. The only downside though is that the green Rupee is only equivalent to one Rupee, making his bill the least valued among the concepts, but I'm sure fans of the series will look past these tiny details to appreciate these designs for what they are, a magnificent piece of gamer-inspired art.
