The Recent Misadventures of a Procrastinating Zelda Fanatic

[HylianHero92]

Reluctance to do homework + Overexposure to Image Manipulation Programs= Random Zelda... stuff!  ::)









Respond!

[TP Zelda]

Dang!
How do you do this?
D:

[HylianHero92]

Magic. And Softglow. LOTS OF SOFTGLOW.  :-[

[TP Zelda]

Is there any specific program you use? >.>

[HylianHero92]

GIMP FTW!

[TP Zelda]

:OOOO

Gimp?!
I've never made ANYTHING like those on GIMP!
I see you have a real talent! ^^
I really like the second and last one :3

[HylianHero92]

Thank You! Glad you like it!

My fav is the last, but that's probably because I just spend an hour or two working on it.  ;)

[Uximadesk]

What exactly is the first one?

[Hi no Seijin]

From Hero92's deviantART, concerning that first one:

Anyway, this is the train tracks depicted in the GDC '09 trailer running through the Gerudo Desert. Enjoy!

Your skills are improving greatly, HH92.  There is nothing you could learn from me, but obviously much I could learn from you.

Oops! Terribly sorry! I forgot to say what they were!  ;)


The first, as HnS kindly explained, is the train tracks from the Spirit Tracks trailer running through the Gerudo Desert. The Second is A page from the "Book" in TWW's intro floating on water, which is more of symbolism than an actual scene. The third is a random field in Hyrule after a long battle (with Ganondorf perhaps?).

No, not really.  MWAHAHAHAHAH

Still though, you're definitely shaping up to be an excellent graphic artist.  Take some classes, refine that talent.

[HylianHero92]

I'd love to, but the closest thing my High School offers is Cartooning.  ;)

You don't have to be a college student to take classes in a community college-- in fact, you can probably arrange to take a class at a college instead of a high school class... and get college credit for it.

And there are online tutorials, too. Technique and whatnot. ;)

Anyway, very nice job. Did you use a filter or something for the fire in the third one?
