Once upon a time - namely, 30.11.2011, my 10.000 - Pageviews - Kiriban on dA - er - Deviantart was hit by

On a quite strange date; 12.02.2012, I finally had the time and mood to - start and finish her requested gift in one go. >.<

Those of my watchers that dare to read, might know what I took on to initiate this - um - rather messy - painting. If not, check out the January 2012 N.E.W.S. on my novels' page. (the post contains some useful info for gamers)
The short story: she asked for the poisoned Southern Swamp in Majora's Mask. I spent entire 3 days(ingame time) there and studied. This is the result.

The most colourful doom.
Yes, we're in the night of day 3, so, close before the moon will crush Termina.(Okay - it was 9pm XD) There is no hope left, though still there is this irony of the bright colours. The end is near, but it isn't grey. It's colourful. A beautiful way to die, I think. Surrounded by the colours of paradise...

My first entry for 's LoZ-dungeon-contest! (on DeviantArt)

Well, it actually isn't my favourite dungeon, but it's my favourite place in OoT dungeons. And I did it first because it was the "easiest" one among my choices. So to say, a fun work. *ggg*

In addition it's my work with the most bricks in. (more on that in the N.E.W.S. of November 2011 on my novels' page)

I also decided to add these little forest fireflies. I mean, come on. They're everywhere in the woods but not in the temple?

Epic trailer

I dared to travel to Hyrule again. That resulted in me watching Wolf Link and Midna leaving Lanayru Spring and was really impressed by this kind of calm moment.

The whole situation was a simple contrast of light and darkness, the light from the Light Spirit from behind and the light from the actually not really dark Twilight covering Lake Hylia, combined with the darkness of the entrance.

I simply had to catch this moment in a speed paint, as it doesn't need many details anyway.

Official Game Trailer
..well..HD is something else, but that's the best quality I found so far

Wii Version
A little bit different and of course mirrored, due to the game being mirrored. (Link is left-handed, but the majority of players is right-handed, so in order to use the Wii-Mote adequately, they simply flipped the whole game.)

But this here is HD.
Intro before the game itself, as well as the beginning of the game(including coordination problems with Epona *ggg* - and lacking music due to being an emulator version that didn't quite work).

Seems like I'm always doing what I shouldn't. Instead of devoting to my Fanfic, I did this!

But who cares - Vaati's part of it, he's totally misunderstood and definitely needs real love. I can't present him with real love actually, so I thought, why not showing him the way he is? Not that freak that wanted to destroy everything. All he did was just going mad because his life was hell - and there came Ganondorf with his offers.

Vaati's nothing but a lost soul, not accepted for being the way he is.
(more on this will be revealed later on in my Fanfic)

For the title: It is what it is. He just plays with the wind and that's it. He's no monster. The people around him(except Ezlo) were monsters towards him and that made him turning into an even worse monster. In addition, there was this freaky demon thing - *oh shut up. They shall read it. :| *
