Description "Master, the batteries in your wii remote are nearly depleted."

I love Skyward Sword. And when I say that, I MEAN it. It was my game of the year last year. It has its flaws, but so does every other Zelda game out there. It's a spectacular game nonetheless. And one of my favorite additions to the game was Fi. I didn't like how she had to remind you to change your batteries or find more hearts, but I found it really interesting that your companion is essentially a living hologram or something that inhabits your sword. She's not as interesting a character as Midna or Tatl, but her design is great nonetheless.

Anywho, this is a picture that I've wanted to draw for months. Since I got the game for christmas, in fact. I just wasn't really able to pull it off because I was dumb and didn't know jack about wireframes or digital colouring.

I'm pretty pleased how this one turned out, but I sort of wish I was able to come up with a better background. I had to mess around with the colours a lot to make sure that Fi's head didn't blend in.

Guhh, I'm rambling. Anyway, expect more fanart soon. I think it's fun.

Very nice! I like how the lines for her head arn't black, a very nice touch! I've kinda been wanting to do a Fi/ Girahim battle scene for a while, but it might be a bit spoiler-y for people who haven't beat the game yet xD (Like Girahim when he's in the PURE FORM OF BLACKNESS. or whatever)

but anyway! You drew her nicely here! her head looks nice and shiny : B hee ~ great stuff!

Ghirahim is super-hard to draw, evidently. I tried last night a bunch of times, but I wasn't able to think of a decent pose.

Oh well. I shall finish it eventually.

As I said, I loved it too. It's my third favourite Zelda game behind Majora's Mask and Wind Waker.

It would have been higher, but I adore Majora, it being my favorite game of all time, Wind Waker is one of the most artistic and beautiful games I've ever seen, and the I thought there was a bit too much backtracking and collecting random doodads in Skyward. But despite its flaws, it's still definitely a 9.5, juuuust about a 10.

lolol, yeah, SKyward sword was good, but not great. I loved it because of the unique story, and just the nostalgia, but I missed classic Link. :3
