ideastart.jpgPhaze 1 of awesomness1135 viewsI'm planning a huge scene off of this pic with tons of effects I have no idea how to do. The lighting was really hard because later I'm having a light from above and I had to remove the light from the right. I used a technique called "light painting" in photoshop, it was pretty sweet how it actually worked. The Link pic originally came from this IGN pic of link doing a backflip.dudeofrandomness

4links+shadowfixed.jpgFour Swordsish Variation924 viewsSo I was going to make a picture with the other various ideas that I had for the Link pic (from Magalink) and I put them all together and it just kinda turned into this. Of course, I made it so the links on top were green, red, blue, and purple (corresponding to 4 swords game), and the one at the bottom is supposed to be shadow link. The text was made by me following a GIMP tutorial. I thought it turned out randomly good. Considering it was sort of an accident. I fear that Shadow Link turned out too dark though...on the laptop it looked much brighter than this.dudeofrandomness

cloud-link.jpgcloud-link526 viewshz/bth made this sketch and his photoshop crashed or something so I took the liberty of coloring it (That's ok, right?) I took quite awhile to color it, then at the last second applied a crazy effect to it, and it turned into this, which I thought was cool. It looks like an etching in stone that was stained the proper colors or something. He's supposed to be in the zora-tunic but the last-second edit makes it VERY dark. And the eye turned out kinda strange...not the perfectest job but I thought we needed something different than my usual stuff.dudeofrandomness

allLinksEverWashedOut1.jpgAll Links Wallpaper626 viewsI revised that one and now I think its more wallpaper-worthy. I tried to take everybody's suggestions and it turned into this! Any other suggestions before I send this to LoS?dudeofrandomness

glasscolorized2.gifcolorized stained glass animation848 viewsI like this one better than the other stained glass one, I got it to work better. Thumbnail dumbness (again). That seems to happen with all my animated masterpieces (lol...masterpieces...)dudeofrandomness

awesomewlevels.jpgHero of Courage, Wisdom, and Power655 viewsPhew! This took forever to do, but I'm extremely satisfied with the result. The scene is supposed to be Link receiving all three pieces of the triforce (Zelda and Ganondorf are dead or something, notice they only appear as reflections beside Link's). Lots of work, lots of lighting effects, lots of satisfaction. Whad'ya think? Note especially the lighting on Link, with the blue and red, not to mention the water...dudeofrandomness

mirror-hyrule-shield.jpgHylian Mirror Shield536 viewsI combined the hyrule shield with the mirror shield, quite simply put. Tricky use of layer masks (Photoshop, naturally). The smudge tool is now my best friend. ;-)dudeofrandomness

castle-fade.jpgcastle over seven years525 viewsA simple idea fading Hyrule Castle into Ganondorfs Castle. Simple, yet, cool. Also notice how I faded it sort of day into night. Nothing too hard.dudeofrandomness

masterswordwithchars.jpgSword...with people...704 viewsI haven't uploaded forever... xD well here you go people. I got sick of the desktop backgrounds I had, so I threw this one together. Quite simple, 4 official arts. Don't ask why Midna's there...I don't really know...it just looked cool. I chopped off the top and bottom segments and filled them with black instead...cuz I was lazy and didn't want to touch them up how they should've been done. Well, enjoy. And criticise all you want, but I'm probably not retouching this one.dudeofrandomnessOct 29, 2005

sketchlink.jpgTP Link in color495 viewsSo the highlight isn't perfect, but its a step above what I usually do. This is a colored version of Michelle K's masterpiece found here.
I also borrowed the crest from a pic put up by Susie Q, though the only thing left of it that I used was probably from the official art anyways. I worked hard on the stupid eye, to make it look good. I even went and looked in a mirror to see what my own eye looked like just to do it better. And I couldn't think of anything cool for the BG so I just used a watery-lookin effect. Wow, I haven't uploaded for a long time.dudeofrandomnessAug 29, 2005

tpnewcollage1024x768.jpgTP collage/wallpaper (again)587 viewsI do way too many of these. But I like this one a lot. Screenies + official art. As always. Fireworks. As always. Washed-out (blue this time) and sized at 1024 x 768. As I've recently done. Suggestions? (as always?)
<note>this was partially inspired by ganondorfs-girl in the pic where she compares zelda to hooded zelda. And then it turned into this</note>dudeofrandomnessMay 24, 2005

lmbigwlogo.jpgNew partners (better?)601 viewsTook some advice and came out with this. And all I have to say is thank goodness for options like "screen" in fireworks. I barely had to touch the logo to get it in there nicely. Thank you, Macromedia! And are the edges smoothed out enough? I lost the original fireworks file I did this in, so it wasn't as easy as it could've been, but I think it turned out alright.dudeofrandomnessMay 23, 2005

allLinksEver1.jpgLink through time891 viewsI grabbed an official art of Link from each Zelda game (thank you Nintendo, and Capcom for the 4 swords ones) and put them all together into this. Its supposed to be a wallpaper (1024 x 768) but I think its too busy for you to be able to see any of the icons over it. Feel free to suggest how I could make it a better wallpaper or a better picture in general, I want to do something more with this.dudeofrandomnessMay 13, 2005

z05newChars.jpgZ'05 new character!?911 viewsSo I was looking for better quality scans of the new screens for Z'05 and what do I happen across but new official art! The one of Link isn't new, but look at Zelda HOLDING A SWORD! What's up with that? And then there's that other guy, he looked like the bad-guy, but his skin color is too light to be Ganondorf...then again...if you look closely right under link's hat tip on that guy's cloak is a Sheikah symbol. Yeah. Fireworks for work, Zelda Universe for the source of official art. (and of course I had to add in the sun and moon from the screenshots).dudeofrandomnessApr 27, 2005
