An inspired The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom fan spent hours creating a stained glass version of Link’s iconic weapon, the Master Sword. This creation depicts the Master Sword as it appears in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom after the awakening of Ganondorf.
The Master Sword is one of the most popular weapons in The Legend of Zelda, appearing for the first time in 1992’s A Link to the Past. This legendary sword has appeared in most entries in The Legend of Zelda franchise, allowing Link to defend Hyrule and save his beloved princess. In Tears of the Kingdom, Ganondorf’s Gloom shatters the Master Sword’s blade and causes the weapon to decay. While Link can still use this weapon, it loses its efficiency in battle. However, the soul of the sword remains intact and plays a key role in the story of Tears of the Kingdom.
A talented The Legend of Zelda fan created a stained glass version of the Master Sword in its decayed version from Tears of the Kingdom. This artist, known as GlassWarProject on Reddit, shared a short video to showcase this stained glass Master Sword, with its colored reflection on a white background. GlassWarProject stated that they spent a week creating the Master Sword with stained glass and were happy with the outcome. Besides the Master Sword, this artist previously created stained glass replicas of the Guardian Sword from Breath of the Wild and the Elegy for the End 5-star bow from Genshin Impact.
Fellow Tears of the Kingdom players were impressed by this creation. In the comments to the Reddit post showcasing the stained glass Master Sword, several players asked whether GlassWarProject would consider selling this creation. The artist confirmed that the stained glass Master Sword would soon be available for purchase for about $500 due to the complexity of this creation which required many small pieces to accurately depict the decayed Master Sword from Tears of the Kingdom, with some pieces being smaller than the artist’s nails. Those curious about the creation process of this stained glass Master Sword can check GlassWarProject’s Reddit profile, as the artist previously uploaded videos to showcase how they created the pattern for this weapon.
Tears of the Kingdom has been inspiring many artists, who regularly share their creations on social media. An artist recently shared an original watercolor painting of the Great Sky Island, while another used LEGO to create a diorama of Link’s deaths in Tears of the Kingdom. Besides those real-life artists, some Tears of the Kingdom players prove quite creative in-game, building incredible machines such as a controllable propeller aircraft to travel throughout Hyrule.
The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is available now on Switch.
