The last of the three mock-ups I made for Xion in the Secret Santa activity over at Pixelation. Though it's probably the messiest of the bunch (I really didn't want to add dithering for all the splotched areas, but I probably will at a later point for clarity's sake), it's my favorite overall as a composition. EDIT: Forgot the disclaimer on this one. HUD is straight ripped from its respective game. Check out the sprites for these mock-ups here.

Because people like it?

I personally think it's the most lacking in pixel technique (I really should've took some more time on ironing out the rough background bits), but its popularity is probably due to the fact that it's both Zelda fanart (essentially) and a game mock-up. These are, understandably, very popular things.

I like the leaves and grass but other than that I don't see why this is in the weekly showcase.

Dude! Someone has to remake the CDI Zeldas for DS looking like this! All the horrible dialogue will actually fit if Link looks like that.

Great mockups, like this one especially, colors are so cheerful.=)

Thanks for the kind words on these, guys.

M.E.: That would be your imagination, but it's a good idea should I ever go back and revamp this!

This is pretty nice. the color choice is good :)

Colors + composition are great. Don't like the status bar.
Are those little skulls on the floor? Or is that my imagination?
6 out of 6 + favorite!

This is also my favorite among the three. Although the other two were more true to the originals, this one works well with the original HUD. Great stuff!

They're all super excellent, but this one is definitely my favorite :). The tree and colors are just wonderful.
