When it comes to the final result of this Korok mask, at the same time I know this isn’t its final and true form. I can’t wait for the green in its color to make it stand out, and I’m happy with the way the patterns make it look more like a leaf than ever.

The start of my mask. At first, I was worried it looked too simple. After some deep thinking, I looked more into actual leaves. What makes a leaf look like a leaf? Well, all sorts of leafs have very different patterns, so how can I make this stand out? That’s where I decided that I should wait for it to dry a little more, and then carve into the mask to make patterns.

My cut out’s inspiration was actually based off of a spade from cards.

Probably my biggest mistake. After days of playing with clay, carving into several pieces, each and every single one shattered. I was scared that the same would happen here, so I waited till it was bone dry and faced the consequences. You know, for the first time aside from my wheel experiences, I realized I can’t be scared of something I can learn to control. In reality, I just need to be in tune with my work and feel out where it’ll go. I’m glad I learned about that.

I think the most fun thing about these Korok masks is how their facial expression is cut into the leaf, representing their inner emotions and true personality. There’s so much more about this mask that I find really enjoyable, and I love Legend of Zelda which this game features.

The korok mask character I was working on. When I try to picture this guy’s personality, I imagine someone a bit clueless to the things going on around him, but happy, aloof, and carefree. Probably my favorite too.
