Halloween is here, and what better way to celebrate the season than by showing off some of these Zelda-inspired pumpkins? I thoroughly searched through Reddit and DeviantArt to find some of my favorite carvings of the year. First up, we have DeviantArt user Draug419 who created these two amazing works of art based on Four Swords and A Link…
Last month we saw a very ambitious and exciting Kickstarter project, which aims to create replicas of every mask from Majora’s Mask. Founder of the project, Frida Paredes, wants to make 16 sets of the 31 different types of masks she’s recreating; which amounts to a whopping 500 masks over a two-to-three month period. Despite the clearly huge scale…
With Hyrule Warriors being such an addictive title, it’s exciting to imagine the upcoming DLC packs expanding the content of Koei Tecmo’s hack-and-slash game well into next year. A number of sources have leaked some of the new costumes we can expect to see across the various packs, giving us a sneak peek of how we can…
One passionate Zelda fan by the name of Frida Paredes is taking her love for Majora’s Mask and is trying to turn a wish into a reality: by creating all the masks you can collect in Majora’s Mask into actual replicas. The Kickstarter she has created has a goal of $28,000 in order to secure materials — such as silicone compound and resin plastics…
Gamescom is the largest trade fair for interactive games. Unlike E3, which tends to focus more on the business side, Gamescom is open for private visitors. It closes the gap between the gaming industry and its fans, making it more of a community-based event. When you wait in lines, you’ll meet a lot of people, and all of…
Last year, a team of Zelda fans gave us a stunning look at what Majora’s Mask could look like if remade for the Wii U. The minds behind the project are Pablo Belmonte and Paco Martinez, who have more to show yet. The team recently released a “Work in Progress” video that shows a behind-the-scenes…
On the seventh day of the seventh month of the Japanese solar-lunar calendar, the lovers Orihime and Hikoboshi meet again after being separated by the river of the Milky Way. Or so goes the legend behind Tanabata–Japan’s star festival. While this story may have hardly anything to do with The Legend of Zelda, fans may…
A few months back, artist Lyndon Willoughby teased some very striking Majora’s Mask posters, based on the game’s Hero Shield and Mirror Shield. Now that production is complete, they are now ready to ship. Unlike his previous projects, these posters aren’t related to the Operation Moonfall campaign, in which Lyndon played a prominent role. You can find…
Fathers are pivotal individuals in our lives. They help give birth to us, they guide us and provide us wisdom throughout our lives. We are using this Music Monday to celebrate Father’s Day and the influence these wonderful men have made on us throughout our lifespan. I know my own father actually played A Link to…
Majora’s Mask has a lot of, well, masks — 24 to be exact. Each one is important and necessary to complete the game at 100 percent, but some masks are just more useful than others. BuzzFeed has taken all 24 masks, analyzing each one and ranking them from coolest to lamest. 24. Kafei’s Mask Starting at number…
I think it would be cool to be a Zora. Swimming every day sounds like a pretty good life. Since it’s finally summer and I’m craving the ocean, I wanted to select some fanart that features the Zoras, my absolute favorite Zelda species. Dyru from DeviantArt drew this picture of Mikau from Majora’s Mask. Sitting beside a shipwreck,…
Welcome to Music Monday! Zelda music is in the hearts and minds of us all, and Memorial Day can remind us of loss and the need for healing more than any other day; something I know Zelda music helps me with on a daily basis. All the soldiers who fought and even died in defense…
Zelda fans never cease to amaze me with their artistic abilities. Erika Clark is a talented artisan who specializes in making Zelda props. Her DeviantArt gallery Xiphias-Apomixis showcases crafts from Zelda‘s Nintendo 64 era. Using an assortment of acrylic paints, clay, gloss and sealant, she crafted a Keaton mask from Ocarina of Time and Majora’s Mask onto a cardboard and duct…
“Waiting for the Dawn” is a hauntingly beautiful musical retelling of perhaps the most tragic Zelda game, Majora’s Mask. The two-part EP is composed and directed by Berklee College of Music graduate, Rozen. Joining him is the Audire Soundtrack Choir and featured soloist, Reven. The orchestrations are flawless, and I absolutely love the vocals, especially the romantic, Disney-esque melodies…
The Legend of Zelda series has always been famous for its incredible soundtracks, as Music Monday proves every week. It is nice to know that fans are enjoying it, but while Symphony of the Goddesses has brought us several concerts which were so impressive that even people who weren’t fans of the series went to…
