Description Another piece for my Spirit of Termina project.

This one is a little surreal... And to be honest, I think the concept was better than the execution...

Anyway... What would happen if the world was inverted by the Stone Tower Temple? What if Link couldn't get himself back the right way up? Somehow visiting other parts of Termina in an inverted state...

Here, the Great Bay is beginning to fall apart, and is leaking into the sky... Things are very mixed up and surreal, and the ocean is bleeding down the research lab and Pinnacle Rock...

(The title is a lyric from a Linkin Park song, which jumped out at me as a good title for this piece ^^)

That's an incredible concept to think about, and don't you also think that by this same reasoning the moon would now be headed away from Termina?

I really do like the concept and the title as well. Could be brighter, though.

Thanks!
Yeah, I need a better photo, or a scan of it.
I might go back to this at some point; I like the concept, but not so much the execution...

When I first saw it I though: WTF?
But then I read the description. Very interesting. I liked the idea of water being kept between land and atmosphere, becoming some kind of "plataform". In that way, people would't fall and burn till death.

oooh. Best of the series yet...surreal and bizarre, yet I can still tell it's Great Bay.

Can you actually get out of the Tower while it's inverted (without the Song of Soaring)? We haven't gotten that far in the game yet to be able to experiment.

Thanks! Glad you think so! ^^

You can leave the inverted temple, but you can't go anywhere else. If you cheat on a ROM to leave, you just return to a normal-way-up world... But we can imagine... ^.^

Aww, how disappointing. If the land WAS upside down though, I think you nailed what it'd be like.

Thanks ^^
It could've been an entire game... the world upside down and falling apart...

Hee, that'd make a great sequel for Skyward Sword: all of Hyrule falling into the sky.

Pity Nintendo doesn't pay attention to fan ideas!

Liefesa In reply to rueyeet [2011-04-13 11:13:22 +0000 UTC]

Yeah... I guess there are far too many ideas to find and look at, when only a small amount will fit with what Nintendo want to do with the game...

LoveTheLegend [2011-04-10 20:02:49 +0000 UTC]

Actually, I think this one looks better with the darkish tint it kind of emphasizes the fact the the water is blocking out the sun, because everything is backwards...

Liefesa In reply to LoveTheLegend [2011-04-10 20:23:44 +0000 UTC]

^^ Thanks. It is a confusing picture, so I'm glad at least some of the intended feeling comes through!

Really interesting concept, to bad the pic looks so dark... did you photographed it instead of scanning it?

Liefesa In reply to MajorasMasks [2011-04-10 20:00:23 +0000 UTC]

Again, yes... I'll update quite a few of my artworks as soon as I can get a scanner...

Ops, sorry, I forgot you don't have a scanner... ^^'

There's one at work, but it hasn't worked for ages...
