Something about the majesty of the Legend of Zelda series makes people go above and beyond in their passion for the series. Just yesterday, we shared a wonderful hand-drawn map of Breath of the Wild's world, and then a LEGO version of Link's house, and now we have yet another wonderful creation we felt worth sharing with the world.
This next project is from Mason Drumm who spent 65 hours over six weeks completing the map. He says, "Inspired by hundreds of hours spent playing The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, I set out to create a wood and epoxy, hand-crafted, 3D topographical map of Hyrule. Every nook and cranny of the map has an adventure or memory I can recall from playing the game with my wife on the Nintendo Switch".
You can actually get a great look behind the scenes of the map being built in the video below, which also comes with its very own Game of Thrones opening-inspired intro.
Amazing stuff. Great job, Mason!

All I can see now is the Game of Thrones intro but with this map.
How much and where do I send the money?!
He is fast! 65 hours fly by quickly enough, and it super cool. I haven't done much woodwork so it would take me a lot longer to make something like this.
65 hours isn't too bad. That's quick, considering how nice it looks.
It sounds odd, but the map was one of my favorite parts about Breath of the Wild. This topographical map is utterly fantastic. Very cool!
@Ooccoo_Jr I don't know the price, but there is room left on my account for more money.
That is fantastic.
@Grandiajet Exactly my first thought when I saw the pics!
The game is Streetview for this map.
@HenFjo experience makes the difference. the more you've done the faster you'll be. it's like a second nature and go very fast. Just like when you get your 1st job.. sure it will take some hours, but after some experience it doesn't take more than 1 hour. experience, experience, experience
I wish I had the patience to create something like that, looks really good.
So uh...I made a joke a few days ago about building the botw map in lego...uh I guess I was wrong, it IS possible!
Duh duh
Da duh da duh duh da da
Duh duh da da duh duh da da duh duh dad da
Duh duh
Da duh duh da duh duh daaaaaaa
Watching the video, I was amazed at how casually & accurately he poured the lava and water resin without mistakes (before he busted out the squeegee.) Cool video of the process. I like it.
HOLY COW first legos now this this man should get a huge raise.
This is so freaking cool. Gods now I want a Zelda tabletop game.
AMazing. Simply beautiful
nice
nothing else2 say
I'm horrible at wood working so that just makes it all the more amazing to me
Very impressive!
