Skyward Sword & Ocarina of Time(3D) officials

E3 flew by again and ofcourse E3 means (besides the conferences and announcements): presskits! This year’s contains some new stuff, of which I could make new official wallpapers. Check out each new Skyward Sword, Ocarina of Time and Ocarina of Time 3D officials!

Note: Ofcourse some artwork was released for Ocarina of Time 3D, but as most of it is in fact re-released old artwork I list them under the original Ocarina of Time category. Only the new OoT3D artwork will be in its own category.

Updated officials

New and (very much) improved: two official Ocarina of Time wallpapers! Due to the upcoming launch of Ocarina of Time 3DS, hi-res versions of the 13-year old game’s artwork have surfaced. Being the Zelda artwork hoarder that I am¹, I ofcourse grabbed ‘em and updated this and this wallpaper featured here on Twilight Realm right away. Because the -ever so gorgeous- artwork is so large, I added a bunch of high resolution versions and even HD size: Wallpapers now go up to 1920×1200! You can’t get ‘em in better quality than this! Enjoy :)

Edit 04/17: Even more re-released artwork popped up and that, ofcourse, means two more updated wallpapers! Plus four new ones, all in über high quality and HD. Check ‘em out over here!

¹ No really, I currently have 750 870MB worth of Zelda artwork… And counting!

A reminder

Hi guys! Sorry, no new wallpaper this time, just a little reminder.

There’s this neat little tool called TinEye, which is basically a reverse image search tool. Out of sheer curiosity I went to see if my wallpapers were posted somewhere else besides here on TwilightRealm. Instead, I stumbled upon a deviantART avatar made out of one of my wallpapers (Wallpaper police, haha!). Now, I don’t really make a big deal out of these kind of things, but this one was not credited to  TwilightRealm whatsoever and the deviant stated that credit should be given to themselves and it belonged to them. As this avatar was simply a cropped and resized version of one of my wallpapers, this is ofcourse incorrect and, well, not very cool in my book.

So I just want to let you know I’m okay with making avatars or signatures from my wallpapers, just don’t state it as your own and give credit where credit is due. That’s all I’m asking :)

Thanks!

Link – Ocarina of Time

Another 6+ months flew by without a new wallpaper… It was about time I made a new one :) With all the news, videos, screenshots and impressions of Ocarina of Time 3DS, I thought it’d be fitting to make an OoT wallpaper! Luckily adult Link was requested, so here it is :)

Took some doing to increase the quality of the image of Link, as it’s old and pretty grainy. So besides the standard procedure, I fixed the shading, desaturated the colors and smoothed out the lines a bit just to make it a little less “cartoony”. I’m quite happy with the result, I must say! I hope you do too, enjoy!
