They're finally out of the Lost Woods and back home in Kokiria Forest! If you haven't seen the Kokiria Forest images posted in the past, it's a lot bigger than last time. More houses, more Kokirians walking around, and a larger place for Mido and ...

2023 Is Already Better!

We made it to 2023! I'm finally free of the shackles of the holiday season! While I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas and a great New Year, the latter half of last year was less than pleasant. Got covid, had to evacuate for hurricane Ian, my dad...

We're almost out of the woods! Here's another screenshot where things seem to have gotten pretty tense for Link. What could have him so anxious? Nothing like this happened in the original episode 1. Technically barely anything happened in the orig...

Aside from two weeks of covid, evacuating for hurricane Ian, and moving into a new apartment, this scene is taking the longest to finish. It's a pretty action packed scene with Link and Saria running away from something. Things aren't looking good...

Patron Only UPDATE | 10/21/22

So, I thought things were going to return to normal right after my recent move, but it took longer to settle than I thought. It was a rough move to say the least. Still, two weeks without a post isn't really acceptable. Luckily, I'm actually fully...

This is one of the many times you'll see the camera flying through the environments in the reboots. Making them in 3D with the cel-shaded style makes them render much faster than how I used to make them and, imo, they look pretty nice.

Yep. They're still in the forest. As I've said, a good chunk of the Zelda UO 1 reboot will take place in the woods with Link and Saria, with a few new things happening this time around.

So we have Link and Saria here; looking a bit uneasy. I...
