PikminLink's image
from costume Link - Old school
PikminLink The first time I wanted to recreate this image was around 1996, but I wanted to paint it instead of creating it in real life.

This image is completely real (with the exception of a couple filters and a slight blur to give it a dream like feel).. We created the 'shipwreck' using wooden planks and wooden poles, crates, and barrel. If you look closely the longest plank is burnt. Could this be from the lightning that struck the ship? =)

This picture took a about 20 shots to get it right which means lol I had to get in the wet cold sand 3 times and get soaked over and over again until the tide came to a good spot and everything matched up really well. The Seagulls were a bonus!

It sucked because the tide would go higher and higher at each shot, and eventually washed up farther than the set a couple times or it would go too low, it was very random. But it was very worth it, but in the end I was very cold xD
Don't worry, the costume is perfectly fine :3
I'm glad I found a location that worked so well for Toronbo Shores. It was so pretty, and perfect!


I absolutely love Link's Awakening. I have so much more photos from the set.

I found Koholint Island!

  • neo_winggoddess This is such a beautiful photo. Really nice work! I can't claim that I'm a Zelda expert or anything...Link's Awakening is actually the only Zelda game I've ever played, and I sucked at it, but it's great to see cosplayers go to such lengths to recreate what they love. 13 years ago
