One of my fondest Zelda memories is when my mom pulled me out of school the day Ocarina of Time was originally released just so I could spend the afternoon playing it. I even wore the pre-order t-shirt as I made my way through the Kokiri Forest for the first time.

Good times.

This is a print that made its debut at Anime Weekend Atlanta 2011. The reaction was much more positive than I expected.

It's one of those works that I wasn't sure how things would turn out the whole time I worked on it. I actually spent time on two other versions of the print before settling on this one:

Hope you like it.

Amazing. Thanks to this amazing picture i love ocarina of time even more. Amazing. So colorful yet dark. This picture makes it worthwhile to go play the game again and struggle your way through the Water temple. Links shield symbolizes the urgency and danger of this fight. I am proud to be a fan of the Legend of Zelda just to see this amazing picture. Let's just hope Link has a few tricks up his sleeve so we can see him again in a new picture. 5 stars. You just got a new watch. Keep up the great work. Amazing.

What do you think?

Wow! This brought back some childhood memories! The dreaded Water Temple with everyone's fav miniboss, Dark Link. I love the colors and th shadow. Just perfect! The colors on Link though are a little dark and Link's chin is just a tad square. The 'water motions' look fantastic. The sky seems a little dark but it fits really well. And Dark Link's flip? Epic. He looks ready to take Link down. I really enjoyed this piece overall. I know I'm going to say this again, but the darkness fits well now that I'm looking at it. Great job! Keep up the good work!
