Stubborn monsters and creatures abound in the Zelda series. Some foes hit hard. Some foes simply refuse to go down and stay down. And some foes are a challenging combination of both.

After two years and two teasers, we have yet to see any non-playable characters (NPCs) who are set to appear in the upcoming Breath of the Wild sequel. No Hylians, no Zoras — not a soul to be found so far. That’s another thing. We don’t see any people, but we do see the monsters.…
I’ve mentioned this in a previous article, but I have a soft spot for art projects made out of clay. The malleable medium is too much fun to work with. There’s nothing you can’t bring to 3D life with it. So when Sculpted Nostalgia, the artist behind the Valoo sculpture I covered in said previous…
