Description Ah, FINALLY...I get a new one up. But Corel Painter lied to me...this didn't have a "cool" tone while I was working on it! (Hmph.)

But still, here's yet another Legend Of Zelda: Majora's Mask piece...yet again taking place at Great Bay, but at Pinnacle Rock. Valerie (my LOZ OC) is using her Sea Dragon form to keep the Deep Pythons (as they are called in the game) or "sea snakes" off Link (as Mikau) as he dives down to the bottom of this underwater pit and into their nest to save the three Zora eggs there. ...I don't think Valerie's doing a very good job...she's only got the one.

So I guess this painting also features my redesign for the Deep Pythons. I figured that its head would stay how it is in the game and seem rocky, though I imagine it's just leathery, in order for it to blend in with most of the rocks in its territory. I kept its top-half scales the same black and electric-green, but decided to make its underbelly the colors of sand in (varying degrees of) shallow water. I decided to give this particular creature being illuminated a pair of scratch marks behind its eye and trailing onto its jawline -- signs of former battles with others of its kind. Note the sand in some of their holes; I imagine that they carry it up there in their mouths to...I dunno...make them more comfortable...?

I had a bit of fun with this -- mainly with the background and giving texture to the rocky walls. I felt like I HAD to have my first picture of the year of the snake have...well, a snake. I don't remember if there was any particular song that inspired this, but I listened to these two remixes a LOT while painting this:

"Depths Of My Heart [Song of Healing, Stone Tower Temple]": www.youtube.com/watch?v=wcB57B…
Termina Field (Dubstep Remix): www.youtube.com/watch?v=jriqQX…

This one doesn't have any realation to this picture apart from the fact that I listenen to it while making this -- oh, it put a tear to my eye:

Ballad of the Wind Fish [remake]: www.youtube.com/watch?v=FPWEJM…

(Yes, I have played Link's Awakening. I've beaten it may times now...but I still don't know how to get all the pictures.)

In the game the snakes weren't too bad...but when you look at them from above and have them swimming I'd probably never beat the game.

Yep, that's the downside to adding realisim to a game, no matter how awesome it would be. XD

Woooow. Epic picture is epic! X3 I love how you did the pythons, and Val's sea dragon form is pretty awesome.
Honestly, I love snakes/serpents/etc., but the Deep Pythons scared the crap out of me in the game.
I think Link is probably thinking something along the lines of; "Just keep swimming, just keep swimming- OHMYGOSHGIANTSNAKEMOUTH,IT'SGOINGTOEATME! Swim awaaaay!"
That's what I'd be like, at least! XD

Heh, thanks!

I wouldn't be surprised if I had -- the first time I went through the Great Bay story -- been eaten in letting Link sink to the bottom, unaware of the threat. -.-'
