Is W. Link Green or Gray

[Flare]

Is W. Link more of a greenish or a grayish color?

I personally find him Gray but apparently he's seen as green too...

no I didnt make this just for bells haha such a silly thought.

 

[rianne]

I don't know anyone who considers him green, how interesting.

 

[Snowesque]

After looking at a bunch of pictures in various lighting he appears to be a muted green, which is a combination of both green and gray. So to answer your question, it's both.

 

[That Marshal Fangirl]

It never occurred to me that he looked green sometimes lol. I always thought he was gray, so I chose that.

 

[Catto]

I always saw him as green!! I'm actually pretty surprised and now I see him more greyish

 

[LoboUnderrated]

I see him as a VERY dark shade of green

 

[Kub]

I always assumed he was gray since wolf link in twilight princess is gray haha

 

[LadyDestani]

I always thought he was gray, but now that you mention it, I do see a greenish tint as well. So I think he's somewhere in between, but I voted gray because that's how I've always seen him.

 

[HistoryH22]

I voted green, although I think this is TBT's version of the dress being gold or blue.

 

[Croconaw]

Wolf Link is definitely green. I haven’t seen him as gray.

Green if you are not color blind.: http://prntscr.com/lha2n6

 

[Lemonsky]

I definitely see a lot of green instead of gray. A rather pleasant shade of green too!

Ok, but you don't seem to understand how computer colour picking tools work so...

Let's dig into it.

First on the left we see the sample colour, I took it from his leg/stomach area as it was the 'greenest' looking area of uninterrupted colour. On the far right we can see where on the colour spectrum this shade lies, you can see it's almost more blue than it is green, so let's settle on it being teal. However, looking at the centre panel, we can see the saturation of colour is extremely low. The upper right corner of the middle panel is the highest saturation of the this teal colour, but look, its placement on this spectrum is much closer to the bottom left.

So, irregardless of colour blindness, this colour is : a teal toned grey.

For the sake of argument also, here's a sloppy recolour to show a red toned grey with the exact same level of saturation... would we really argue this is red?

All in all it comes down to the semantics of language, but it very rude to claim someone is colour blind due to a disagreement on naming conventions lol!

 

[Loriii]

Well, his color for the most part is moss green according to wiki, but I still see him as gray, regardless lol.

 

[N a t]

Even though he looks more green, I still consider him gray. I think he's supposed to be a mix of both in TP and AC because obviously Link always wears green and wolves are typically gray, black, white, brown... But I think I would consider him gray because he's a wolf. Not that my opinion would matter much considering this is animal crossing and we straight up have Pink Kangaroos and Mummy Dogs.

 

[Shellzilla_515]

Huh, now that you mention it, he does look a little green. But then again, his design is based from Twilight Princess so I'm going for grey.

 

[AlyssaAC]

He looks both gray and green to me, so I'd say both, but though to be honest, it's kinda hard to tell really.

If u look in my picture, the green on head is 120 but the fact is... the spectrum IS GREEN, in your image too.
Olive green, I can look for a Pantone too if you want.

(yep is a darken red, if you work in typography yuo must know the % of a colour, how is made it. A grey can be a darken blue, darken red, darken green etc. no sense your example btw)

This is a true grey

So, im sorry if i stop the discussion here but i I have trouble in arguing because im not native.


TL;DR the leg is on shadow too.

Wolf Link's coloring reminds me of a paint color I used when I built model airplanes back in the day.It was a gray-green color that was used mostly by the Germans during WW II as part of the camouflage scheme for their aircraft.It's one of those odd colors that's the combination of two colors and could be considered one or the other depending on who's looking at it.

 

[ghostcoastx]

I've always saw him as green, I guess in certain lighting he can be considered grey
