So I’ve been waiting, like everyone else, for tears of the kingdom. So in the meantime, I’ve been messing around in breath of the wild, and in my search for korok seeds, I have found some cool spots!
My favorites to visit have been the three secret springs in the hebra region! Some other places in these shots may be familiar, some may not. I forget how vast and beautiful botw’s map is. Sure, it can be empty at times but there’s always some cool areas to poke your head into. Maybe you’ll find a korok, or a bear to ride around and terrorize local travelers with! Go out and explore, look around the map and see if any landmarks or forests catch your eye and go explore them! Who knows, you might find something new or you’ll be able to compare and contrast breath of the wilds map with tears of the kingdoms! So go out and explore! Make the wait worth it!

These conditions make it awfully difficult to have a sardonic, cuttingly introspective film-noir interior monologue along with your drink.
This is actually from an animated vlog RitoBandito recently made in which he discusses working on Lackadaisy as a 3d artist.
You can watch it here!
Also, the 3d Rocky model was made by the marvelous Katie Nelson (Billie Bust Up)! We use it all the time in production as a scale reference for set design. Rito rigged it up and had some fun with it.

You know what I havn't heard anyone talk about yet?
The fact the Rito use what look like their own simplified version of compound bows.
So - for anyone who doesn't know archery, there's different types of bows you can use. The type you'll usually see in media is a long bow. (There's also flat bows, recurve bows, crossbows, etc.)
A compound bow is a more modern bow - and the most common type you'd probably use now days if you joined an archery club.
You can see the familiarities - the wheels, the supports, the shapes. The Rito bows are like a wooden version.
So why is it interesting? Well - they made the design choice to chose a more modern bow style rather than a more traditional one like a longbow dispite the fact the enviroments aren't modern. So this was a very specific design decision they made.
Why are compound bows more commonly used now days? Because they take less strength to pull and fire. Simple as that. To shoot a long bow, you need very good upper arm strength. Compound bows distribute the pressure to make them easier to wield if you don't have that.
Birds have hollow bones so that they can fly, and the Rito warriors seem to mostly have slender builds for dexterity. The liklihood is that they don't have incredible muscle strength. So using compound bows makes perfect sense. They can also be lighter, because a long bow or a flat bow must be made of a solid piece of wood so it can bend without breaking, but a compound bow is usually made from hollow pieces of metal (though theoretically could be made from wood), because they don't have so much pressure on them. So they'd be able to be flown around with much easier.
This probably isn't of any interest to anyone, but it was something interesting I noticed that I wanted to share!

Hyrule Polaroids 📷
As much as I still like the simplicity of the original black and white ink drawings, it's been fun experimenting with color 🌈

So I’ve been playing Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom, and the moment I realized you could fuse a shield to a Zonai cart and essentially skateboard I had to draw this!
Hope you enjoy this silly drawing, and have an AWESOME day!!!
