This week's random rough doodling.

I'm having fun exploring the imagery of my Zelda 2 headcanon of Link's pre-game backstory. I always pictured the Triforce of Courage mark appearing in a dramatically appropriate moment, surrounded by enemies, a second away from death or worse. I am absolutely obsessed with the fact Link is hunted down non-stop by monsters and worshipers, that his blood is the key to Ganon's resurrection. I love to think that Link was pursued as soon as Zelda 1 ends and that the 6 following years of his existence were a living nightmare.

I am a Berserk fan and in my mind, Link's living situation is similar to Guts and the consequences of the brand of sacrifice.

This piece has been rotting in my art folder for months now and I finally figured out how I Wanted to color/render Dinraal.

i finally sat down to make some progress on it today and i could only focus on it for about an hour and a half. if breath of the wild felt like doing homework, then tears of the kingdom feels like researching for a college report

like what do you mean it wasn't enough to look up where the enemies i hadn't taken a photo of yet spawn statically with no upgrading, now i have to go find those enemies again because i didn't realized i also needed to take a photo of the materials they drop? and i also have to go and find all 4 of the dragons again to take a picture of their materials and BTW they now have a 5th material unique to this game that i had no idea they had until i looked it up? and there is yet ANOTHER food item locked behind a quest i've never encountered (not the hateno cheese, apparently there are these things called sun pumpkins also locked behind a hateno quest!)

and there are some enemies you can literally miss taking a photo of! remember that event boss you fought during the story that never appears again? well you should have whipped out your camera during that moment! you didn't? well thank god you can buy photos, but damn! there are just so many things this game expects you to do that is not going to be your first instinct!

and i just know going and fighting all of the bosses scattered throughout the world is going to be tedious because of how much more often you have to replenish your weapons in this game. 5 lynels was enough to deplete almost my entire stock of high damage weapons, so now i have to go get more attachment materials AND go get the weapons they fuse well with

and god i don't want to mine more zonaite but i feel like i've come so far and i may as well finish off the second layer of the batteries (yes there is a SECOND layer after you get all the green batteries they turn blue now wheeeee!!) so there goes another hour to two hours of my life hitting the same damn mineral deposits again.

the amount of shit i have to look up and go back to grind for makes me feel like this game is never-ending. i know it's not but please never make another zelda game with this many damn things to collect ever again. enough. take me back to the 100 skulltula days
