So its a LEGO mosaic, mimicking pixel art, in a stained glass style…of a cel-shaded cartoon version of Link from Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker. Did you get all that?

This formidable piece of geekcraft was made with translucent 1 X 1 LEGO blocks so as to create a luminescent glow when introduced to light. It was on display at Seattle’s BrickCon festival back in September. I didn’t know that BrickCon even existed, but if this is the kinda stuff to come out of it…well, where do I make a donation?

I don’t care what a lot of the “mainstream” players thought, I consider The Wind Waker‘s art style to be beautiful and an original/fresh take on the Zelda universe. DeviantArtist croix22 seems to have thought so as well, having drawn several other characters from the Zelda series in the style of the modern GameCube classic – only the fourth game to receive a 40/40 from Famitsu.

You can see some more examples of croix22′s work after the break and at croix22′s deviantART gallery, which I highly suggest you check out.

Young Ash and her husband decided to have a cake themed after The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker made for their wedding, claiming “this was the one way we could really express ourselves in the wedding without making parents go crazy.” As you can see, it’s clearly one of the best video game cakes the internet has ever seen. Honestly, gamer or not, who actually goes to be the one to cut a cake like this? At the very least, it’s hard to imagine someone going at it without severe amounts of guilt. In fact, a cake like this should go in a museum.

Check past the break for photos of the whole cake. They’ll take your breath away.
