Yaaay, it's story time.

Once upon a time, there was a girl who was horrendously photosensitive whenever she had a headache (which was regrettably often). During one particularly bad episode, she noticed that the light from her ancient CRT seemed to be exacerbating said ailment. "I've got an idea," she thought to herself. "I'll turn the brightness way down, instead of getting off the computer and lying in a dark room for awhile, as would be the intelligent thing to do!"

The headache passed, and all was well. Some time later, the girl played a really awesome game on her new Wii, which made her want to draw pictures inspired by it. So for hours a day for a whole week, the girl worked tirelessly , articulating each precious detail with loving care, suffering a surprisingly merciful number of Photoshop crashes. Guess those two gigs of 2700 finally paid off.

Upon completion, she posted the picture on her SheezyArt, went along her merry way, and lived happily ever after.

... Or so she thought. Later, upon looking at the image on her fiancé, Matt's normal monitor, she had a tizzy fit, and succumbed to her itch for perfectionism, and dug out the freshly buried file. Now, she worked on it another few days, fixing not only the colors but every other little thing that bothered her about the original, until at last she could say she'd done the very best she knew how to do.

The moral of the story is either not to mess with your damn monitor settings, or to mess with them a lot, because it's the only way you'll do the best you can. I can't say which, I've got a headache right now...

THE END

Epilogue: I did a cheap, Photoshop spamming, filter-mongering lamer BG, and stuff, and there's words now, too. Amoung other changes from the old file are...
- Heightened contrast, and richer colors
- Longer right (our left) leg
- Thinner, less disruptive Twili markings, with no glow
- Redone brass and leather fixtures, since the old ones made me want to barf
- Repainted the loin cloth thing
- Adjusted proportion to at least vaguely resemble the same species as Midna

I think that's it...

All the usual jive: Link and the LoZ series are © Nintendo, this design (which is totally my own creation, does not appear in the game EVER, and is not a spoiler) is intellectual property of Mie Yoshida, and is not to be copied, edited, altered or redistributed in any way without prior written consent.

... Man, this monitor sure is hurting my eyes...

Very neat pic.

This is a really great piece but I don't believe it belongs in vectors. Especially since it was done in Photoshop.
