It's Hylian, not Hyrulian.

Not that it matters!

Interesting. I wonder if they were so obsessed that they actually followed the polygonal layout of Link, Zelda, and Majora's Mask. Some people have WAY too much time on their hands.

Next in the series: Life size origami Ocarina - Look like an uber-fanboy (or fangirl) without all the nasty papercuts!

I hate to be so geeky about this (and it is copmletely off topic) but I think Hyrulian is correct.

I had a Nintendo Power strategy guide for A Link to the Past, and from what I remember Hylia is an ancient land that was in the same location as the "modern day" Hyrule. Accordingly, Hylians were the inhabitants of that land. Hylians possessed special powers such as telepathy. While Zelda and possibly Link are of Hylian descent, they are infact Hyrulian.

That Link looks really cool, but am I the only person imagining one of these being smashed in by a foot? J/W

I wonder if anyone has made a plugin for 3d apps that will automatically generate these papercraft printouts for you.

@8: ALttP is post-Wind Waker. So while LttP Link and Zelda are Hyrulian, the pre-TWW Link and Zelda from OoT/MM would be concidered Hylian. By ALttP era, information of what OoT-era Hyrule was like has been distorted by time and legend.

Similar to how a lot of people wank out what the Egyptians Greeks and Romans were like in our society, it is very likely that those same kind of distortions about what OoT/MM era Hyrule was like would have cropped up by ALttP.

Id rather say hyrulians.

Hylians are the name of the people that live in Hyla from the game beyond good and evil.

Hyrulean = People from Hyrule (Zora, Gorons, Minish, Hylia, you name it.)

Hylian = Link's race, decendants from the Hylia, first race of Hyrule.

That great the everyone is loving this new art form.... wait a minute the Japanese been doing this for years already. This isn't new people they have catalogs so you can buy just about anything in paper form. Games, Anime, Hentai. You call yourselves gamers. For shame.
