Link`s Blacklist: The Miniblin from the Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker
|
“I managed to grab my absolute favourite Legend of Zelda enemy, the Miniblin from Zelda: The Wind Waker. I’ve said it before, I say it again, I love imps and these little devils managed to poke my heart with their pitchforks. They might not be too threatening alone but they always hunt in packs so the hero of the wind might need to reconsider if it’s wise to fight them (especially if you’re still missing your sword).” ~ The Miniblin’s are totally some of the cutest enemies in the whole Legend of Zelda series and I am not even sure they really belong on the Blacklist, at least I myself was always trying to avoid killing these loveable little guys 🙂 TamarinFrog from Finland is one of the artists that are featured on GA-HQ since years and also became active contributors with the time. She created a good handful of artworks for our art collaborations already but her take on the Miniblins is her first one for the Blacklist! |

The Miniblins are known as the weakest members of Ganondorf’s army in Zelda: The Wind Waker and indeed…they can be defeated with one weak hit already. They can only be a small threat if they attack in a horde. There are places in the game where Link does not have his sword and needs to distract these little foes with an All-Purpose-Bait ..and run away. There is a strange glitch with the Miniblins in Zelda WW. When Link is distancing himself from the Miniblins they search the nearest supply of water and..kill themselves =S (poor little things)
Our first illustration of the Miniblins was drawn by Gakoru from Belgia who participated with multiple submissions to Link’s Blacklist already! He described his illustration with the following words: “This Entry was I think the one that was most work, but that was only because I had messed up some thing with the background so I had the redo it and reorganize parts and stuff.
