Artist's Comments

My entry for :iconnicochi:'s Videogames of the 90's Contest.

EDIT: Added more water effects and shoulder shine.

This shows a scene from Ocarina of Time. After the Evil Shadow Spirit escapes the Well in Karkariko Village and Link learns the Nocturne of Shadow, Sheik tells Link to go ahead to the Shadow Temple, while (s)he stays behind to watch the Village.

This picture also heavily depicts another scene I love from Ocarina of Time, and that's the Song of Storms being played, which always results in that purple aura glow after the Shadow Spirit has escaped.

I actually took my time doing background details, yee! Enjoy. =3 Download for larger/original size.

Note: Try listening to the Song of Storms from Brawl while looking at this picture. :D

Geeze, it looks even more beautiful in this larger resolution. I really love Sheik's expression; suits the character well.
The lightning still looks awesome, I like the white tinge on Sheik; shows relation from the back and foreground.

Best of luck in the contest; I honestly think you have a good chance. ^^

-grabs at the lightning/thunder and gets shocked- D8

xD Stupidity aside this looks great. The lightning was pulled off really well and it was a great touch that really adds to this. In game you never see that, I think you just hear thunder. Rofl.

Sheik's expression is win and I like how the rain on his bangs is dripping. So many people overlook that detail in pictures. I am really amazed at this piece though. The detail you put in really shows well. Nice subject for entry overall. Being that OoT is popular among Zelda fans, I'm sure you'll do well. That and the picture is just fantastic.

Thanks! :D I actually took my time on the background with this one, making it from scratch as always but taking just as much time as I did with Sheik, and I'm really surprised at the results. I'm going to add water dripping from the clothes and the spandex shine soon, I forgot to do that earlier, but it shall be done! >>

Oh and you can see lightning during the Song of Storms, provided you look at the Windmill from the graveyard, it will show up. :D
