LOZ - Link's Awakening

Here I told myself, I wasn't going to do any more Zelda fanart for a while. But after watching *Shattered-Earth livestream of her rendtion from the game, it sparked a long forgotten idea I had! While she was painting, I quickly opened Photoshop and did a really messy sketch and layout, then came back a few weeks later.

Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening was quite a gem of a game, I first played it when my BF let me borrow it, having the original cartridge (and we still have it!) and I still have quite fond memories of it till this day! A rather a mysterious game in story, and far different then most other Zelda titles it really captured me, and I must have played it more then a few times. It also had it's goofy moments with other Nintendo extras, like Chainchomps and even a Yoshi Plush.

For this image, I wanted to include so much of the game's key elements that, the only way to really do it, was a story motif normally set into stained glass. I'm quite happy with how it came out!
