King Dodongo

And it's finished!

I remember playing this game when I was a kid, being terrible at aiming the bombs and having to rely on grabing them on the ground to throw at his mouth!

I wanted to capture that idea of scale and even though the graphics were much more simple back then, the game did a great job on making the boss "big".

So, this is the 3rd drawing of the month, hope you guys like it!

It's great what they did with graphics that nowadays are so simple =D

This definitely how I remember the King Dodongo looking! when I go back look at the original it almost looks silly for how menacing it was back then. Great work as always!

Auruko

it has slightly more detail lol =D

Lee

Well, that's why he eats Gorons! But this reminds me of the which of Oz scenario in the old movie. She was vulnerable to water .... and kept a bunch of water buckets nearby hair "lair"!!!

Lee

Thanks! I was worried that it wouldn't convey that much depth initially, but in the end I liked the result =)

Lee

thanks!

It's a tough competition here lol I have MJ as my cellphone wallpaper, Iris as the lock screen, Iris in one of the screens in my pc, the other is random lol

Lee

I have to wait for the HI-RES picture, the preview is too small :-)

It looks awesome :D In hindsight... what do dodongos eat...? Just the thought that he lives surrounded by quick growing plants that will kill him if he eats them is strange now that I think about them as an adult...

This looks amazing. The view angle really sells it here and makes the danger very much imminent.

Awesome! 🖤

New background!

Glad you liked it! It's been a long time that I wanted to do a drawing like this. I was really happy with how Link turned out and the whole setting of the image =D

Lee

Thanks, Zelda games still hold a special place in my memory =)

Lee

thank you!

Holy cow! This is even better than I expected 😄. I absolutely love these colours and textures. That dust wisping through the air between Link and Dodongo, with those particle effects rising in the bottom left corner of the image all look amazing and they create this nice barrier between the two characters which I like. I also love the hints of cool colours amongst all these warm tones with the slightly cooler tones of Dodongo's right shoulder, his green/blue eyes and Navi flying in front of him. The generally cool tones of Link with his green attire, silver and blue shield as well as the bomb flower creates another nice contrast between him and Dodongo. I already said a bunch on the previous WIP so I'll end here to avoid repeating myself, however I do want to make sure it's clear that this painting is absolutely epic! The scale, colours, textures, rendering... everything really all comes together to create a magnificent scene. Brilliant work 😄
