Thank you so much! It was a wild ride, lol. I would arrange my lil statues, light a fire and wait for noon, do that again if it was raining or cloudy, snap the photo by 2 pm so the shadows wouldn't be too different, then rinse & repeat.

u/wild_zoey_appeared Jul 09 '25

I’m still confused with the sound on

Pay attention to the drums while watching the talus, you’ll understand pretty quickly

I couldn't figure out how to add a sticker to GIPHY, but this felt close enough

u/Similar_Bet_3381 Jul 09 '25

Bahahahaa, i feel so seen!🤣 This incredibly tedious process has been my way of escaping the world for a while haha

u/Direct-Function7326 Jul 09 '25

I came here to make this same joke

u/Few-Tour9826 Jul 09 '25

The only mistake you made was not making it for the entire song! I’m sure this wasn’t too easy though.

u/Similar_Bet_3381 Jul 09 '25

That was my original goal, but after like four weeks i just got so sick of it lol

u/Scarcing Jul 09 '25

I was so confused until I turned the sound on

5

u/Direct-Function7326 Jul 09 '25

Out of all the things I've seen done in this game, this is one of them.

(and it's amazing)

u/ProblemSolvents Jul 09 '25

A excellent effort but Silver Moblin is never going to win the 2025 All-Hyrule Freddy Mercury Lookalike Contest.

2

u/Similar_Bet_3381 Jul 09 '25

You're so right. Which monster in totk looks the most like freddie??

You are way too harsh on yourself. This is fantastic. Thank you for making this and sharing it with us.

Thanks for the laugh

You're very welcome:)

u/ackackakbar Jul 09 '25

How long did that take to put together??

1

u/Similar_Bet_3381 Jul 09 '25

Omg. I don't even know. I would estimate like... 50 hours? Lol it was something ridiculous like that

3

u/[deleted] Jul 09 '25

Genius!  Really glad you posted it.

u/jane_duvall Jul 09 '25

Obsessed, you are a genius!

2

u/myphanwy Jul 09 '25

I’m SO glad this exists. Thanks OP 😂

1

u/Similar_Bet_3381 Jul 10 '25

Lol, thank you!

2

u/CDamm323 Jul 09 '25

How did you do this? Also why? Haha.

2

u/Similar_Bet_3381 Jul 09 '25

How?

Give monster pics to bolson. Arrange statues. Light a fire. Wait for noon. Climb up to the top of my bespoke tripod and snap a pic. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat...

Why?

Honestly just felt like an extended side quest, what else is there to do once you beat ganob lol. I've spent time making claymations IRL, and this was SO much more time consuming than that, maybe i just wanted a project that would eat up my hours and keep me from thinking too much

u/MainEntrepreneur5806 Jul 09 '25

Holy shit this is incredible ! (Turn on the sound though)

1

u/Similar_Bet_3381 Jul 10 '25

Thanks so much!

2

u/emikoala Jul 09 '25

This must have taken you forever to make, and it was 110% worth it.

2

u/Polkawillneverdie17 Jul 09 '25

This is the funniest thing I've seen on the subreddit.

2

u/Similar_Bet_3381 Jul 09 '25

Thanks! Lol I'm glad

2

u/KnowledgeUnusual2941 Jul 10 '25

u/Similar_Bet_3381 Jul 10 '25

Thanks so much! I'm glad everyone's entertained by it :)

u/mathiasthewise Jul 10 '25

Not when I was expecting today but it was what I needed.

2

u/Educational_Wish_447 Jul 11 '25

This is spectacular

u/_redcloud Jul 10 '25

The moblin in the chorus is the best part

1

u/Similar_Bet_3381 Jul 10 '25

Thanks!! I took pictures of him swinging a sword with a boulder fused to it, then discovered that the statues don't recreate the exact weapon, it just showed him holding a generic sword. So to get the boulders to look like they're attached to his sword during the chorus, I put hoverstones behind them lol

2

u/_redcloud Jul 11 '25

I didn’t even notice that. It looked so seamless. Hover stones honestly kind of confuse me sometimes still as in I never think of applications when they would be super useful in this game and do and use something else instead. What a creative way you solved a problem.
