9 years of work on and off, with a frustrating/disappointing 5 year shelving in the middle due to some pain/muscle problems, is finally complete and I am so happy
I've loved Hokusai's work since I fell in love with the calming and yet terrifying beauty and detail of the great wave of Kanagawa at a university poster sale. This idea came to me after finally having to throw that print out from the wear and tear of the years;some time after I first made the ultros perler, but before I finished the rest.
I have a similar hokusai (edit: looking it up the painting I'm thinking of is a Hiroshige) meets legend of Zelda idea I've prototyped but it's still missing something I've yet to figure out. Hopefully I'll figure out out now that I can stop thinking about this one being incomplete 😅
Nice! I remember the first time I went up against Ultros, I could not win at all. I had to do this trick where I put a c clamp on the “A” button because then you go around in a circle in the water leveling up.
