I came up with an idea for a "what if" timeline in the Zelda series which goes a little like this: what if Ganondorf had been successful during the events of Ocarina of Time? What if he managed to completely take over Hyrule and rule it for centuries? I wanted to show a realistic, renaissance-styled papal Ganondorf. He is inspired by many portraits of popes, Christ, the facial likeness of Peter Cushing and Emperor Palpatine, and the borrowed hairstyle from Gary Oldman as Dracula in Bram Stoker's Dracula. Oh, and I'm sure "Grandpadorf" from Brawl subconsciously inspired me to make a truly old Ganondorf.

Fantastic, really just simply phenomenal, it gives me the chills. Then again all you work does so why should I be surprised really. The Legend of Zelda is the location of my inner fanboy I love the series and your Ganon is just .... I feel like I'm staring into the face of Justified Evil he would make an awesome final boss someday.

Cheers! I really took inspiration from Dracula (the Gary Oldman variety), and ya know... I still want to see a Dracula-esque Ganon; I think about it from time to time. I am inspired to attempt this concept once more now. Thanks for reminding me, and stay tuned!

Hate to burst your creative bubble but Nintendo was waaaaaaaaaay ahead of you...

the entire point of Ocarina is that the game sets off a huge amounts of "what ifs" and certain games correspond with that. The reason why ganon is always a pig monster in some games while he isn't in others. That's because in those games he's already recieved the triforces power by defeating Link in Ocarina.

I submitted this on January 6, 2011. Nintendo unveiled their timeline at the end of 2011. Until they did, no one knew about the third "failure" timeline. I believe my thoughts coincided with theirs.
