Description
I enjoyed drawing this NIGHTMARE FUEL (ed: thanks, TVTropes!) way too much. *Razzek 's 'Growing Up Oocca ' got me thinking about the other side of the Oocca life cycle.Oocca are (c) Nintendo
edit: Nobody ever pointed out how Ooccoo's empty head resembles Hieronymus Bosch's "Tree-man" so I guess I will just go ahead and mention that. I think I saw Bosch's painting of Earthly Delights in a Time-Life book when I was about ten years old.
No wonder I am possessed of crazy visions.

There is a special spot in artistic hell reserved for you, where you will be forced to draw zombie fetus Redeads for all time.
As very clever as it is, you didn't need to make her more terrifying than she already is.

You know, I don't find this scary at all. It's kind of cute in a bizarre sort of way, and makes a great deal of sense. O_o

Great! This seems so appropriately bizarre.
I love the choice of colors, and the lineart is excellent as well.

Two things:
1. I will need brain bleach, and some chicken because this picture made me want some to eat, as creepy as all hell.
2. congrats, TVTropes links to this page on LoZ's Nightmare Fuel!

1. Bwahaha! I'm pretty hungry myself atm, but I'm not sure I could stomach chicken.
2. Woooo! I love TVTropes! Does that make me famous?

1. Lulz.
2. I dunno, ask TVTropes themselves, they have a deviantart page. I think it's called "Tropers", but I don't know.

No offense intended about 2., though, its just ironically the way I found this picture.

This makes too much sense why Ooccoo Jr. is just a face. Very well drawn by the way.

But don't you love this kinda creepy?

The style of this piece reminds me of the mental vaults' memories in Psychonauts. Ever play that game?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh lands, Psychonauts. Yes, yes I played it, and it changed my life forever (even after Grim Fandango had already changed my life forever). Right after the 'The World Shall Taste my Eggs!' reel when Raz went, 'What the hell?' I laughed like a fool. It was like watching a game protagonist comment on a bad programming glitch. Not till lots later did I realize the significance and symbolism and I'm so glad I did not at the time. It was seriously funny. The whole game was.

O____________O Ooccoo gone wild? lol, this is great! You are probably the only person who has thought of this from the Legend of Zelda series.

Sorry for a late reply, but thank you. n.n Late at night, I wonder if any Japanese Zelda fans browse across this picture and think, 'Whoah, I'd never thought of this!" XD XD

I find this both cute and utterly terrifying at the same time.
Well done.

Thank you. n.n The dreadful yet darling Oocca span all boundaries.

I found this through one of TV Tropes' "Nightmare Fuel" pages. Congratulations on getting noticed there!
And yes, that is an interesting observation about the... growth on the back of Ooccoo's head. (How do you even pronounce that?)
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh lawks, I love the daylights out of the TV Tropes site! Thanks for mentioning it, I actually feel kinda-a-little-famous now. XD Which page, may I ask, has the link to this pic?
Perhaps I have made an interesting observation; I can only hope I have not made it too logical because I wouldn't want to take anything away from the wtf-ness of the Oocca. I gave it some thought just now and edited the pic's desc to give some credit to Hieronymus Bosch , dude of the 1400s, who snorted too many daisies.
Also.. 'ooka?' No idea!

My sister likes to watch me play this game (back before I beat it.) Even though she's in 8th grade, she still likes me to read out loud what the characters say (do I do good voices?) I've always pronounced it "Oh-kkk-oh" and "oh-koh-a".

In a cute way, I hope. n.n

True, they're terribly weird. But still full of love. <3 Thank you!

If you can think of a Latiny-sounding word for it, I'll okay it.

I didn't think it was possible, but you succeeded. You made the Oocca even more creepy. ._.
That aside, the drawings and color choices are fantastic. The rough edges on the panels are also a really nice touch.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh, thank you. n.n That means more to me than you know, since I am always doubtful of my ability with colors. I just kinda slap them on, yanno? But when I saw it shrunken down into a thumbnail, I thought, 'hey, not bad' myself. I think that's the best way to tell.
Also heavens forbid that I didn't make the oocca grotesque enough. XD Horrible dear things. I don't even have a Wii or a gamecube, though I'm considering getting one just to play Z:TP.

This shook me...and amused me. The Ooccoo really are.. something else.
You just made them better at it 8D

Thank you. n.n I am honored to partake in the weirdnesses of the Ooccoo.

The faces are super creepy, but I find myself liking this nonetheless, hehe. Interesting concept fo sho.

They are creepy, aren't they? I hope I made them creepy enough. Thank you!

God that thing freaked me out when it first appeared in game. O.o
This is amusing and also very creepy, considering the hollowness of her head, hehe
Also, I was wondering when some artwork would appear on your page, yay!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I confess I haven't even played it.. I just got swept up in the fandom. And then stopped cold by the freaky oocca. How can they be so weird! They don't make any sense! X)
I was posting okay there for a while, but I've run dry on art again. It's kind of you to comment tho. :}

Omg, Occoo has no brain inside her head!! =o Very nice pic XD
