Listen to this [link] to really put you in the mood :) Courtesy of Zelda Reorchestrated

This is a relatively simple photo-manipulation I did in order to create a more realistic Great Deku Tree for my tabletop Zelda game. Technically, the one in the game is the same one as in The Wind Waker (and presumably the Deku Sapling from Ocarina of Time), but I never liked his WW design... too... Shrek-like. I wanted something more like the original Deku Tree, something that looked more like a wise, old forest deity.

Here's a link to the original image, taken by Tai Power Seeff: [link]

Very neat. I can see this as being how the Deku Tree would look in real life! :)

Wow...! Very awesome, and original. May I ask how you did this (other than obvious photo manips. lol) and if I could add a few things, and submit it as a collab?

Thanks! For the most part I just changed the hue/contrast a bit, then used the clone tool and the healing tool to spread the desired textures, adding in darkened/lightened areas where needed. Really nothing much to it. But sure, go ahead! I'd like to see what you could do to enhance it. Let me know when you have something!

Awesome^^ Thank you, and that sounds quite clever. I sometimes forget about the clone tool and just use the spread tool.
And I likely won't be adding too much, but I hope you'll like what I do^^

This looks excellent. And I completely agree about the preference for his design.
