Part 4 of my Shattered series is complete! I’m at a crossroads now where the next installment isn’t super obvious. Who should it be????
Here’s The Blackthorn, The Highprince and the Bondsmith! Who do we want next????
The next step in the “Shattered” series of digital paintings I am doing! First was Kaladin, then Shallan, any ideas who’s next?
My first attempt at Sanderson art! (Please ignore that I have no grasp of anatomy 🫡)
Forgive the mistborn paraphernalia at the bottom. Its a full sketchbook. This one just came out okay and the sub looked like it could use a few more posts
I am working on a “Shattered” series of the 5 flashback characters from their different identities in their lives, here is Kal, the bridgeman, the bodyguard, the Knight Radiant.
This prompt gave me a little trouble as the obvious choice is the contest of champions in WaT. The problem being that I haven’t read any of the previews and didn’t really look at any theories on possible champions.
I looked up the whole contest of champions thing on the coppermind and couldn’t find any previous thing.
So here is Adolin in his Shardplate with Maya, dueling his way through Words of Radiance and gaining shards. I feel like he deserves a bit of recognition for this :)
(On a side note, it would be really funny now if he turned out to be Honors champion)
Oooo, this one was fun to make. Portraits are always nice to draw and I feel like this one holds quite a bit in terms of content :)
I was debating on what Immortality meant in the Cosmere since the guy who made everything got shattered… Kelsier isn’t really immortal but I feel like with him making a religion out of himself, being called the Survivor and everything it fits pretty well. (Also him deciding that he wouldn’t die which is pretty cool)
We don’t really know what’s going on with Wit exactly so I wasn’t sure if I should put him in.. would have worked as well.
My first Cosmere book was The Way of Kings and as it was also a book that set of major events in the Stormlight Archive I felt it would be nice.
Also the prompt for today was very fitting, I hope eveyone that wanted their Bands of Mourning copy got it :)

Hers and Adolins? (Putting spoiler down just in case :) )
"Hello! Would you like to destroy some evil today?"
I did so mich Stormlight stuff, so here’s something from Canticide
I haven’t read White Sands (probably going to wait for the prose version) so here’s something from Shallans first Ghostblood meeting
A man no longer blind to his truth waited at the end of an era, contemplating the end of all things. He sat atop the highest tower in the world, overlooked by the souls of the people he had murdered.
Can truth be taken from a man? Truthless.
Image description: A digital comic of Teft's third ideal from Oathbringer. Caption reads, "Teft huddled somewhere dark. Maybe the darkness would hide his sins." Teft huddles in the darkness, hunched over himself sitting on the floor. A glowing figure of a woman in a dress stands before him, then floats closer. She kneels down and holds Teft's shoulders. "Do you see it Teft? Do you feel the Words?" she asks.
Teft says, "I'm broken." The comic shows his face, a tear running down his cheek. He grimaces with his eyes closed. Phendorana leans in with a serious but compassionate expression, glowing blue. She says, "Life breaks us, Teft. Then we fill the cracks with something stronger.” He says, "I make myself sick." She says, "Teft, that's what the Words are about.”
In the next three panels he opens his mouth and says, "I..." Then he grimaces again, tears streaming down both cheeks now. He looks upwards, eyes shining with tears and starting to glow blue. From off-screen he says, "I will protect those I hate. Even... Even if the one I hate the most...is...myself." Phendorana smiles a proud smile as he says it. End ID.
I’m not exactly sure in which of the books the flashbacks took place and I’m not going to check now so I’ll just say era 1 spoilers.
