Description One of my favourite moments in video games is when Ganondorf transforms at the end of Ocarina of Time. In particular, when the familiar boss text gives us his name. Because in that moment, we are fighting GANON. In that moment we know - this boss doesn't need a prefix. There's no extra detail or description other than what's looming in front of us.

In that moment, shit got real.

I like how simple Ganon's form is in the game.Β  When he transforms, he appears mostly featureless, cast in shadow, with two round white glowing eyes.Β  That's all you need to see to feel fear.Β  He doesn't need to be some eldritch abomination or disgusting monster.Β  Like Darth Vader.

The Demon King himself. It has been a shame that none of the other 3D games have given humanoid Ganon fights. Hyrule Warriors did a good hybrid between Demon King and Demon Beast, but still, the Ocarina version had something to it I've not seen since.

I thought Wind Waker had a pretty cool interpretation of the ol' rascal.

Ganondorf never appears in his demon form in that game. He simply uses a giant puppet in its image.

Absolutely gorgeous painting here, hhhhooOOOOllly crap this scene made my childhood too and I think you captured it perfectly. Great details, excellent style, and while the cheery colors are a bit unappropriate your work with color is super nonetheless. Amazing job overall! Ganondorf is always at his best when shown alongside his Dark World form. What seemed like a great, big evil can be even BIGGER.

EEP.

I can still remember the first time I played Ocarina of Time and came up against Ganon. The music just screamed of "This is it, it's all or nothing!"

This is some awesome work
