The Unforgettable World of Zelda: Painting Delves into Majestic Sky Islands

Highlights

A talented fan paints impressive watercolor of Tears of the Kingdom's Temple of Time, capturing the game's vibrant palette.

The visually stunning Great Sky Island, the largest introductory location in any Zelda game, captivates fans and keeps them engaged for longer periods of time.

A skilled player of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom has recently created a remarkable landscape watercolor painting that showcases one of the most unforgettable vistas from the Great Sky Island. This painting adds to the collection of impressive fan art inspired by Tears of the Kingdom, which has been created by dedicated players ever since the highly acclaimed Switch exclusive was released in mid-May.

The opening hours of Breath of the Wild start on the Great Plateau, but Tears of the Kingdom begins on the Great Sky Island above Central Hyrule. Although the game's sandbox nature provides a unique experience each time it is played, the opening sequence is more linear and contains set pieces that the majority of players will encounter, such as Link's initial visit to the Temple of Time.

A Reddit user known as thepixelpaint recently created a stunning watercolor representation of the Temple of Time from Tears of the Kingdom. The artwork showcases the temple from a southwestern perspective, with intricate details and even a glimpse of the South Eldin Sky Archipelago in the northeast. Despite the artist's unique style, the painting accurately captures the game's yellow-dominated palette found in the floating islands.

thepixelpaint explained that they first applied a "vibrant wash" to their original sketch before adding dye to enhance the details, resulting in a uniformly colored image. The painting was created on a physical canvas and features the artist's favorite spot in the game, the Temple of Time. This painting joins a multitude of exceptional fan-made artworks that have gained attention online since the release of the latest Zelda game. Among them, a custom GameCube console inspired by Tears of the Kingdom recently gained viral fame on social media platforms.

The Great Sky Island, aside from its captivating visuals, holds the distinction of being the largest starting location in any Zelda game. While leaving the Great Plateau in Breath of the Wild can be accomplished within two hours, numerous fans have spent more than double that time immersed in the beauty of the Great Sky Island before finally descending to Hyrule. Experience the enchantment of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, now available for Nintendo Switch.
