It's been a lot of time since i last painted. With some pomegranateloads of tests every week, i didn't have much time to think about it, plus the fact i needed to buy some brushes, a canvas and some extra paint.
But this weekend i had a lot of inspiration, bought the things, and started painting again. For the next 3 days, i have painted a lot, and had a pretty damn high amount of effort to finish this.
Took me a total of something close to 20 hours, as i not only painted the things with the brushes i have bought, but have done some apparently insignificant details, that from dot to dot, made a huge difference. Used a toothpick and a wooden skewer to do those details. That range from little stars, flames and lightning effects, to the symbols on Link's shield.
Now i see that the time i've stopped painting actually helped me to get enough patience to do it, specially for the fact i had a test just a few hours before i finished it. It was actually worth all the damn hours, and all the hurting on my back right now. :>
Whatever, this is how the final result looks like. Taken on my bed, because it was the best place in my room to gather appropriate lightning for the picture. :>

That's meant to be Ganon's Castle, if you're trying to figure it out, i know it doesn't really look like it, but there's the fact i didn't really remember the structure of the castle, nor used any reference image , since i wanted something different and new, guess that was the price i had to pay for it, plus the fact it's design has changed within the games, why not change it once more. :o
These are some of the details i've mentioned, i'd take some more pictures of it once my cellphone battery recharges.

Too bad the colours are kinda dead, because of my cellphone camera and the lightning by that time. Sorry for that. :C
