My first entry for 's LoZ-dungeon-contest! valasedai.deviantart.com/journ…


Well, it actually isn't my favourite dungeon, but it's my favourite place in OoT dungeons.

And I did it first because it was the "easiest" one among my choices. So to say, a fun work.
In addition it's my work with the most bricks in. Exactly from October 16th 2010 to October 16th 2011 I drew/painted 3366 bricks. This one has 2071. ( total list: ilionej.deviantart.com/journal… )

I also decided to add these little forest fireflies. I mean, come on. They're everywhere in the woods but not in the temple?

Dabei versuch ich es überall zu plakatieren!
Danke nochmal. Ja, der Dungeon hat mir fast mehr Angst gemacht als der Schattentempel. Aber das Bild war wie eine Therapie(vermutlich waren es die Ziegel lol). Bin jetzt geheilt und kehre immer wieder gerne dorthin zurück.

Hihi, bitte

Meine Brüder und ich waren noch sehr jung, als wir den gespielt haben. Da hat die Musik schon alleine ausgereicht einen Schauer zu spüren
Hahaha, so eine Geduld habe ich selten bei solchen Details

Wow, this looks gorgeous! Very akin to the actual game.

I really love the blend of greens against the blues of the shadow on the wall and the river, as well as the lighter grays of the wall!  Excellent work!

Oh my gosh, how has this evaded my favorites....

Agh the sense of those walls just towering over you, that hazy mist, the fairies everywhere, just-- *dies*

There was always a great deal of mystery surrounding the various temples in Ocarina of Time, but none intrigued me more than the Forest Temple. This picture brings back a lot of memories. Nice work!

Ilionej In reply to TheCloudchaser [2013-05-06 20:56:25 +0000 UTC]

True. It used to scare me a lot because you do get a glimpse on the sky but are still locked in - and there are the Wallmasters of course, but now that I think about it(and dealt with the dungeons in the tinies details due to my complicated fanfic), I must daresay its structure in combination with interior details does indeed create a certain mystery.

Thank you even more! The comment and the fav are very, very, very appreciated!

...even though it took me almost a month to work through my inbox.

Even though I love the Forest Temple, it's one of the few places in all of the Zelda games that legit scared the crap out of me. Beautiful, but creepy.

Gosh why does everything with you have to be a braintease Illy? I take one look and go, wow I never realized just how (not) out of place the Forest Temple looks! It's like a Hylian fortress that got consumed by the forest... like...

And then I cursed because plot.

It's very pretty, the forest fireflies were a nice touch. Adding it makes it look more like it's the Temple at rest and less like the dark and danger filled Temple. I suppose this would be those quiet moments of Saria's guardianship.

Ilionej In reply to MandolynDragon [2012-04-05 11:40:54 +0000 UTC]

XD Yeah. I like it better without the enemies. Though I also need to look into far distance. So I would either have to learn climbing these walls or I'd go mad.

This is actually pretty gorgeous I'm so glad you submitted it to be used as an inspirational piece - even though it is zelda related (which I love), i think other deviants will be able to draw their own creations from it

Lovely work

I haven't really played OoT since I was about 10 or younger, but the one place I would always remember from the Forest Temple, is this room!
