BOTW is like a completely different series than the other games. I recommend either picking up a classic first, Wind Waker, Twilight Princess, Ocarina of Time. Maybe the retro ones, Zelda, A link to the past, Links Awakening. Majora’s Mask is a personal bias, but that ones really hard for beginners. I recommend a modern classic like A Link Between Worlds or Skyward Sword first, before you create a crippling addiction to the games, and play them all lol. BOTW shouldn’t be your first game, if you want to play the others. Other than that, if you wanna play, pick whichever one you want, and have fun with it! :)
Adam…sometimes I feel like you don’t give yourself enough credit. Every single tiny nerdy thing you make comes out looking great!
It would’ve been REALLY cool if you did one of those floaty-thread things that destroy the laws of physics to hold the second island up! That said, still REALLY cool! They are called tensegrity I think

Dude, thank you so much for making this. This game was my childhood, and it’s one of my top three games of all time (LoZ Skyward Sword, LoZ BOTW, ACNH - two zeldas, one animal crossing, all three Nintendos. I have a distinct taste in games lol)

AHHHH SCREAMING (as I take a running leap and my Loftwing fails to catch me) this is amazing!
I highly enjoy your narrating style. makes me smile every time!
"Let's give this a go..." Proceeds to build the entirety of Skyloft in micro detail. Your skill with that brush and clay is on point. Great blending and leading the eye. Well done indeed!
The detail is incredible!!! I love the waterfall idea too!
Love that remix of... Saria’s Song? At the end!
I started the video and immediately paused it so I could say the thumbnail sells it so good my eyes got huge and I said to myself.... Thank you for blessing my eyes with this majesty!!!!!

Your work is stellar. Because of you it's in my bucket list to make dioramas like these at some point in my life. I've always wanted to venture out of just painting in canvases and to work on sculptures.
I just gasped with glee when I saw the tumbnail and have just been sitting here, bouncing with exitement watching you make this. It looks absolutely amazing, thank you so much for the hard work and patience 🙏🏻😌✨
I'm not a gamer so I have no context whatsoever but I do love tiny nerdy things and this ticks all the boxes. The little green ledge by the waterfall under the main island would be my favorite chill spot. Just stunning!
I am sick right now and your voice and this video are making it so easy to fall asleep to an amazing build
This is great stuff, glad I found your channel :) I really appreciate the dash of quality humor you throw in while still keeping the energy calm.
This is wonderful!! I loved seeing the process and hearing you talk about it
This is so AWESOME!!! One of the best creations I've ever seen! I love The Legend of Zelda games.
I love watching these craft channels and they get the knife out, and then a couple of shots later, they have a great big plaster on their thumb.
Your personality and creativity really show in these videos and I am so happy I found your channel!
Watching your videos always makes me want to create something!! And I especially love the aesthetic of floating islands, maybe I'll finally take some inspiration and make myself something interesting. Love your videos!! Keep on doing what you love :)
This is amazing! I played this game quite a while back, many years ago. I was a little younger so I don't completely remember everything in the game and the whole map, but I can definitely remember some parts of it! It really brings back the memories! Thank you for making this, it's wonderful.
This is extremely impressive but what really gets me all awed is how precise you are. I feel like a fumbling giant when I try to put a thread in a needle and here you are meticulously inserting extremely tiny, thin and delicate objects into a material like foam. And the bazaar looks fantastic! Genuinely amazing stuff!
The amount of detail is incredible, everytime that I see your builds my jaw drops
The detail you put in is amazing!
YES!! My favorite Zelda game and you go all out on the detailing. Truly amazing. Also totally forgot about your video this week. Just had final pin ups for architecture today and this is the best way to end it.
The level of detail on this diorama is massive! Amazing work!
The fact that I get your jokes reminds me how old I am, but it’s okay because I’m clearly not the only one. I love your work because it’s nerdy, but also because you just have fun. You make amazing stuff, but you don’t get upset over the tiniest things. I loved the Molduga and I really want to buy it. I’m also considering joining your patreon :)
I only found you a couple weeks ago but I AM SO GLAD I DID. You are so captivating and I love your content please keep it up!

Dude this looks amazing!! Skyloft is such a beautiful cozy place. Can't wait to get off work to go play!
I love this DIY! But if I may make a suggestion: Next time you make metal bars of this size, try to use floral wire. They would hold up much better than clay, as you've shown when making palm trees for Outset Island.
Just started playing this game yesterday. Thanks for informing me someone lived under the island 😳 wonderful recreation!
You really brought this to life so well! Amazing job as always.
you’re so freaking amazing oh my gosh all those little details you made blew my brains out
This is definitely my favourite so far. The tiny bunting is bloody adorable!
This is brilliant 😍 I'm so glad to see Skyward Sword getting the love and appreciation it deserves.
Impressive as always!!!! I look forward to seeing your work every week!!
Dude stop being so hard on yourself this was freaking cool I would never in a thousands years be able to make something this good! I love it
Honestly such a beautiful piece of work. It's really impressive!
This is absolutely mesmerizing!!! I'd say it was 10000% worth the struggle, they say beauty is pain after all, and this is a great example ;D Even without the goddess statue it's a gorgeous recreation of Skyloft, and your process is a joy to watch as always!
