Have you ever tried your hand at woodburning? It’s a skill that few possess, but many covet. Woodburning involves using a heated instrument aptly named the woodburning pen. It is heated using electricity by simply plugging it into an outlet. The woodburning pen has interchangeable tips, which allows the artists to vary the thickness and wispiness of his or her strokes.

You didn’t click on this post to undergo a tutorial on woodburning, so I’ll start telling you about this amazingly…

Hello and welcome back to our Wednesday Weekly Feature: The Fan Music Spotlight! In this feature, we’ll be presenting a YouTube musician showcasing their abilities through a Zelda-related composition or cover.  After last weeks excursion into ten different genre interpretations of the main Zelda theme via electric guitar, we’re taking a bit of a step in the other direction this time.  While our starring artists still excel in the guitar, they prefer the acoustic route, taking our favorite tunes and strumming them out, without amplification. 

 Everyone knows Link’s Hyrule Warriors scarf is what’s “in” this season. Since the game’s release, variations of the scarf can be found for purchase online. These, of course, differ in length, material, and quality between sellers. For the fan that wants authenticity and accuracy in their scarves, some of these online versions may not cut it. However, if you have the time for a little bit of arts and crafts, a tutorial from instructables.com user Namisuke can help fans make their very own scarves to their liking.

The tutorial outlines exactly what you need for the project, all of which can be gathered from your local craft store. It features…

Youtube user Futurised has uploaded a video featuring some lovely Zelda poetry, with an interesting take on what Link really does. As the title suggests, it tells the tale of a certain Hero in Green, who is unusually lazy for being a hero. The real story of Link and his adventures turns out to be rather a lack of adventures. It’s very creative, and of course everything rhymes. It’s very well done and worth checking out so make sure to…
