Me: Didn’t I just post a cool Zelda MOC a few days ago?
Also me: Yeah, what of it?
I really can’t get enough of Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild, and this little bit of scenery from Hyrule by builder speedyhead has me questioning my need to get to the studio this morning so soon. Maybe just a little exploring first? Yeah, that’s a good idea.
The Legend of Zelda is totally my jam, and Breath of the Wild is an absolute masterpiece. I’ve been playing it since it came out over two and a half years ago and I’m still loving it. In fact I finished it on Wii U, then I got a Switch for father’s day and started all over again, I love it. So seeing this perfectly rendered rendition of Link’s house from builder Boba-1980 makes my nerd heart sing. It’s even got an interior where Link can rest and admire his weapon collection, brilliant.
The moment I saw this lovely sculpture by builder Julius von Brunk I immediately heard Saria’s Theme in my head (and had an overwhelming desire to play an ocarina, weird huh?). Yes, it’s Saria, from one of the greatest games of all time The Legend of Zelda, Ocarina of Time. Julius also created this great video breaking down her somewhat unusual construction.
One of the many iconic enemies from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time were the Poe Spirits. Julius von Bronk has captured their devious aura in bricks, complete with lantern and spectral smoke trail. I especially love the detailing on the tattered hood. Now I want to dust off my N64 and explore Hyrule!
Everybody has Zelda fever right now with the release of Breath of The Wild. I have not played it yet, but I'm dying to. Tim Schwalfenberg made the mysterious Guardian enemy from the game in bricks, and captured it perfectly. Where's the Master Sword when you need it?
