New exclusive wallpaper: Leaving Skyloft

In light of the upcoming release of Skyward Sword, and ofcourse, because a new exclusive wallpaper was waaayyy overdue, I thought it was time for a new wallpaper. This one’s been sitting in its PSD for quite a while (like many others*), unfinished. Today I managed to add what I felt was missing and uploaded it for you guys to download. Enjoy this new exclusive!

* No, I haven’t forgotten about the requests ;) Please be patient ♥

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!

It’s here!!

Can someone say FINALLY? Oy, after 6 months(!) I made a new wallpaper for you guys. And this isn’t some wallpaper – it’s a Skyward Sword wallpaper!! Ofcourse I saw Nintendo’s conference live yesterday as I do every year, and as it started off with a demonstration of the newest Legend of Zelda I just couldn’t wait to make a wallpaper for it. And here it is!

What I think of Skyward Sword? Well, for starters I have trouble remembering the name… But generally I think it looks pretty cool. I kinda like the “painted” look, it’s like a mixture of Twilight Princess and The Wind Waker :) What I didn’t like? The amount of movement that’s necessary to control Link seems like you have to stand up in order to play… I don’t know about you, but I prefer to kick back on the couch while playing Zelda, and not stand up. Especially since Zelda isn’t much of a pick-up-and-play type of game, so I figure standing up all the time can become quite tiresome. But I’ll wait and see how it works out :) I’m still excited for it!

The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks

I just noticed the last official wallpaper I uploaded was *gasp* 1,5 years ago!! So, in light of todays European release of the latest addition to the Zelda series, Spirit Tracks, I scoured the internet for hi-res artwork (and obviously found some) and made a semi-official wallpaper out of it.

Just thought it’d be nice since there aren’t any real officials available yet. I don’t know about you, but I like to put wallpapers on my desktop of new games I’m playing and ofcourse I’m playing Spirit Tracks right now (and I love it!). Hope you like it!

Not one, but TWO!

No updates in over a month! As you may have read on Twitter, I’ve been terribly busy to finish my schoolyear which means too much work to do in too little time. So that’s why I haven’t updated and responded to e-mails, I’m sorry :( Anyway, to make it up I uploaded 2 new wallpapers made by none other than DaKing9 and thomash31 from Want Midna Back! Thanks guys! Go over to check them out at the Others section :)

Also, right now I’m working on a new wallpaper myself so stay tuned for another update coming real soon!

By the way, let me show you my latest addition to my Zelda merchandise collection (I don’t have much else though – everything needs to be imported :() :

Nintendo DS styluses! My brother and sister-in-law went on a trip to Belgium a while back, got a Bombchu stylus from a Gacha vending machine and gave it to me as a gift! Being the major geek that I am, I wanted them all and found all 7 (green Rupee, red Rupee, Bombchu, Red Potion, bomb, Piece of Heart and Phantom Hourglass) combined on eBay. So I got all 7 styluses, difference is that these are Japanese and my Bombchu one is European but that’s no big deal. The Japanese version just have “Phantom Hourglass” in Japanese on them and the shield attached; the European version has a little tag with the logo on it. As you can see on the last picture, I attached my Piece of Heart stylus to my new phone, it’s really convenient to use on any touchscreen. My favorite one, the Phantom Hourglass stylus is attached to my DS, the original stylus keeps falling out (it’s a DS Phat) so this one really comes in handy :)

If you’d like them too, just look on eBay for Yujin stylus, it should be around £11,50/€13,50/$19 excl. shipping for all 7 styluses. (mind you, my Bombchu stylus from the vendingmachine was €2) There’re styluses of New Super Mario Bros. too which look really cool as well, so take your pick!
