One of the most recognizable pieces of equipment in all of video game history is the Hylian Shield. This shield was originally introduced in Ocarina of Time, with its iconic design emblazoned in many gamers’ minds. Now if you want your very own Hylian Shield, you either have to be the chosen hero Link himself or you have to pay a hefty price online. Luckily, thanks to some DIY artists online, you can now create your very own and feel like the legendary hero.

And that’s who we’re looking at today, as Kamui Cosplay shows us how to make our very own Hylian Shield. Using varying foam cut-outs, airbrushes, flexbond, contact glue, and a whole lot of nose-to-the-grindstone, she’s able to build a durable yet affordable version of this legendary shield. What makes this DIY video work so well for me is the upbeat attitude she has throughout.
