Making The World Map From The Wind Waker - Polymer Clay Tutorial (The Legend Of Zelda)

[@trunkit8749]

It’s sometimes called “links oasis” because one of the side quests lets link own the island. Also, outset has a forest on top of the island:

[@Kerobyxclay]

Yeaa I couldn't exactly fit it up there sadly.

[@Equalyze]

My goodness, Kero, what a genuine labor of love this was! I'm just in awe that you created all 49 island areas of the Great Sea, and that you even went and differentiated the islands that otherwise look very similar at a glance. The level of detail work here is wild, and I'm always amazed at how you can work with such precision at a miniscule scale. In particular, my favorite islands here are the Tower of the Gods, Diamond Steppe Island, Ice Ring Isle, and of course Dragon Roost Island (heh, Valoo does indeed look a bit like Yoshi :p). The color choices are spot-on, and I love the marbling effect you created for the water. It's so cool to see each piece cut individually to fit, and to see them assembled piece-by-piece to create such vibrant and fun designs! And all of the little texturing details, like making notches and grooves, really help the scenes to come alive. Wonderful editing work, as always. It really gives a comprehensive look into the process, while keeping the pace engaging and exciting! The zooms, pans, and rotating camera angles are so professional, and I especially love that transition at 0:17, switching from the map to the box of clay. I really like how you stay on each shot for what feels like the ideal amount of time, and the overall flow is just stellar. Hey, I like your new employee - and he's even got his own ID badge - so cute! 😁 I'd say your quality passes with flying colors each time, but it never helps to have a second pair of paws- ... er, eyes to check on things. I look forward to seeing Zippy in future videos, too! 🐁 And thank you so much for the kind shout-out at the start of the video, and for the opportunity to have the music included in this absolute masterpiece. It means more than I can say that you were interested in having me contribute, and I'd be more than happy to do so again sometime! 😊 Once again, fantastic work, Kerobyx! 🌟

[@Kerobyxclay]

Go big or go home! ;) Good choices, those are some of my favorites too! That's actually really nice to hear because I always struggle with things being too slow or too fast. I end up tweaking clips so many times until I think it's prefect. It's nice to see it's noticed! He's a nice employee, he really helps out around the studio! Did you notice the signature on his name badge? 😅 You're very welcome! I hope it brings you some new subscribers!

Thank you sooo much!

[@MilkyClayGALAXY]

I think you practiced a lot making this video 😂

[@StarlightStrive]

Wind Waker is probably my favorite Zelda game, I've beat it so many times! I absolutely love this project! It looks great and it's clear you put a lot of hard work into it! It's amazing! Great job! It makes me want to make my own! 😊

[@Kerobyxclay]

Thank you very much! I'm glad you enjoyed it, and good luck if you do make your own!

[@Samoanuceganglava76]

Hi Kerobyx it is me again just wanted to say good job on this clay creation and as I see it is a clay creation that is a map from the legend of Zelda which looks cool and creative and all and yeah good job and keep the good work that you are doing and all keep it up and all and yeah bye and good day bye -_-

[@Samoanuceganglava76]

Hi me it is me again what’s up me hahaha -_-

[@Kerobyxclay]

Hey thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed the video!

[@MintyFries]

I'm glad you decided to work on bigger stuff because this came out so wonderfully, and reminds me of so many Windwaker moments. Especially using Action Replay to allow for infinite swimming and, being a preteen with way too much free time, swimming slowly from island to island without using the King of Red Lions. Man I wish I had that much time to spare again.

[@Kerobyxclay]

Whaaaat I didn't know you could do that! I never tried out action replay though. That must have taken forever to swim from island to island without the boat!

[@MintyFries]

@@Kerobyxclay Yes. I had 🅰 🅻🅾🆃 of time on my hands, lol.

[@Kerobyxclay]

Clearly haha

[@Rellik165]

I adore these long-form huge projects with tons of small details slowly adding up into a whole. And it really adds a new perspective and dimension to something that (for me at least) I have seen a dozen times. You breathe life into worlds that I thought I knew, Kero, even if you haven't played all the game like Super Mario World XD

[@Kerobyxclay]

Thank you! It's really nice to hear someone appreciates all the time I put into it! Yea... I had no idea anything about that game lol.

[@JayMonoto]

I much prefer your longer videos but thr short ones are easier to digest immediately upon release. Love this one. Stellar work

[@Kerobyxclay]

That was such a meticulous project, WOW! I too seem to be afflicted by the "Twice the amount of hours that was originally planned" curse when working on projects. Also Zippy is so cute 🥺❤️

[@Kerobyxclay]

I hate getting that feeling of "what did I get myself into..." Thank you! :) 🐹

[@Wickelle]

​@@Kerobyxclay I feel ya, that is the worst! 😭 I can't imagine doing all those little islands. I would have gotten overwhelmed after sculpting 3 of them!

[@Kerobyxclay]

I don’t know how you managed to stack the forbidden fortress without it collapsing under its own weight, props to you

[@Kerobyxclay]

I was really worried about it tipping over while it was baking, but it worked out!

I recently played through the wind Waker so it’s really cool to see this amazing creation.

[@Kerobyxclay]

Oh awesome! Did I capture it well?

[@MasonH9612]

Kerobyx you captured it very well, the map looks great and has a ton of details that look really good.

[@Kerobyxclay]

Thank you so much, I'm glad you enjoyed it!

[@SumcallmeBrooks]

Personally I think a good mix of both would be nice, like have a really big project one week then a smaller project to relax with the next week or so

[@Kerobyxclay]

Thanks for the suggestion!

[@twobadour]

I love the bigger projects! Thanks for always making such awesome stuff

[@Kerobyxclay]

Thanks for watching!

[@CluelessCrafts]

Loved this! I think I prefer your longer videos with bigger projects, just because I like seeing all the little details come together. But I enjoy all your videos!

[@Kerobyxclay]

Thank you! Longer seems to be pretty much everyone's answer so far.

[@RikkiGibson]

this is amazing! I was very nervous that the forsaken fortress would break when you lifted the paper up. I prefer these long form videos, it lets me get into the zen of it. Also, we love Zippy! More Zippy is always better! :)

[@Kerobyxclay]

I had the same worry! Thank you, and I'll let him know!

[@fradonalds9549]

All the time spent on the map definitely payed off :) Also, glad to see the kerobyx family growing ever larger 🐹

[@Kerobyxclay]

[@Memelord2020]

You should make Klonoa to celebrate the release of Klonoa Phantasy Reverie Series

[@jellyrollz6937]

Man this stuff is so cool! You should totally make an animal crossing island out of clay!

[@Kerobyxclay]

I've thought about that! Thanks :)

[@ShadowCurito]

I love the map, but three things would really pull it together, the hemrock king in its nest, link in the king of red lions and the tower on the island you start on. Those three things might be a bit hard to do in that scale but if i do this i'd have to add them as they were impossible to forget for me

[@Kerobyxclay]

I did think of all of those, but it's just way too tiny at this scale. Thanks for the comment!

[@lunamoon8066]

Great designs! I do more painting and sewing myself. So seeing someone work on clay, is mesmerizing! Also, Zelda games are my jam. You captured the islands very well, even though the scale is so small! Keep it up! Subscribed!

This was super impressive, easily one of your best creations right up there with the Super Mario World Map. This must have taken an insane level of patience. The only problem was when you hated on my boy Tingle!

Tingle is actually far from my most hated character, and actually is one of my favorites due to one game, and one game alone..... Freshly-Picked Tingle's Rosy Rupeeland. Would definitely recommend giving that game a shot cause man... it's such a fun and unique experience... makes me sad that we didn't get it in the US. Would love to see some of the companions you meet in that game in clay form! If I had to pick just one though... that would go to Barkle.

[@Yaered]

Also forgot to say, Great work, love the world of wind waker. Just the act of sailing alone is what I had loved about this game so much. Glad it is starting to become more popular nowadays simply due to the fact that the consensus back then wanted the more gritty and realistic game they revealed before wind waker and least on the gamecube version holds up better than twilight princess nowadays.

[@Kerobyxclay]

I have seen that there's a few tingle games, I'll take a look into them! Maybe it will change my mind haha. Thank you very much! I don't know why, but I always had a hard time getting into twilight princess. It was fun and all, but not my favorite. I wish they would have made the wind waker sequels on console, not handheld, but oh well. Anyway thanks again for checking it out and commenting!

My favorite videos are the longer ones with many details. Like your Mario World video. How much time are you putting in daily for such a project? When I do something (anything) there are days I will just not work on it. Or maybe some minutes. On other days I spent the better part of the day on something. Probably correlates with motication.

[@Kerobyxclay]

I'm probably doing like 6-8 hours a day on it. At least for this one because I was really into it. Sometimes I can slack off pretty bad though. I do a mix between editing and clay. If I get sick of one, I switch for a while.
