taken me ages but behold archive karecktors
adolin and maya beloved but also the most time consuming because i had to figure out how the hell i was going to do adolin's hair and not hate looking at it, and maya took me forever to figure out the colours lol. looked at so many references trying to figure out what dead vines should look like and what i would like it to look and i couldnt really find what i wanted lol. but what i went for was like really dried out and very very dead looking fibre. that wasnt too bad but trying to figure out her clothes that would look decent before and after she becomes a deadeye was hell for me an amateur colour theory understander lmao
i have drawn shallan before so she wasn't too difficult but i was truly torn about which version of pattern i wanted to show?? so i did a few of them hahah. i did a canon compliant version, alluding a bit to BE NOT AFRAID angel vibes. but im pretty passionate about ferrofluid-looking pattern as thats what i picture in my head (but i couldnt really find a good reference so i couldnt really do it well. it's also like, about the way it moves more than a still frame so extra challenge). and if you've seen my shallan art you know i. asdlkfjh. i originally pictured pattern as a QR code so i was compelled to continue it. @mistbjorn this one's for you because youre so right <3
syl i usually picture similar to kida in disney's atlantis when she merges with the crystal and you can see her scalp beneath her transparent hair, so thats the inspo for her. for the sylspear i designed it to look a bit like a caduceus as homage to kaladin's medical training and his dad, and like it's not that deep but i guess the swirly glowy bits are his duality and being torn between two worlds etc etc or you can just picture spren zipping about if you want lol like i definitely pictured syl was one but the other makes no sense
the kholins i dont have much to say since they were not part of my original plan hahaha but i couldn't help adding them too. i lowkey struggled to make them unique but also similar because family alksdjfhs i was sketching this around a time i did a lot of face studies so it was so whack and the colouring absolutely killed me so it is what it is asldkjaklsdjf

I painted Maya for a Cosmere art challenge. I hadn't realized how strange she really is until I started drawing out her features.

17 - forest 
Our protagonists hiking through the weird, glassy forests of Shadesmar. :) image description: image of the group travelling shadesmare in Oathbringer, hiking through a forest of weird glassy plants in various spiky and bulbous shapes and with life spren bobbing in the air around them as small green glowing lights. In the back to the left are Pattern and Syl apparently in deep conversations. Syl is carrying a long harpoon over her shoulder. In from if the walks Shallan in her white coat, throwing suspicious and interested glances at the vegetation. In front are Adolin and Kaladin, with Maya packe between them. Adolin holds her hand causally while saying something to Kaladin and looking into the direction they are heading. Kal is in uniform, carrying a second harpoon, and bag strapped over one shoulder and across his chest. Adolin wears fashionably adapted lighteyes clothes and a rucksack on his bag. Both men sport proper beginnings to a beard.

i think what's really special about adolin and maya is that he hears a word in his brain and he thinks it's her name cause he's been obsessed with what he thought was an inanimate/not sentient object since he was like 14 or smth but he can't be sure. like he's not sure. and yet when it matters and he really needs her (seven heartbeats) the first thing he does is give her a nickname LOL

As tense and hard as Adolin's trial chapters are, I just LOVE how it leads up to Mayas outburst.
"We chose"
"You cannot have my sacrifice"
And it just rings so strongly to me of what so much of this book/series touches on with its many themes. Ugh. I love Maya and Adolins friendship so much and how they reciprocate a bond without Maya being a full spren anymore.
Idk, I just really enjoy this part of the book.

so my hope was to have more time and energy for free work and fanart indulgence over the Sommer but it was blatantly false. So very quick and rough paintings before going to bed is all I manage for now.
This one turned about a man, his friends and his swords, although sometimes it is difficult to distinguish between the latter two.

Behold, Maya the autism creature
Tumblr media
She's perfect
ID: A digital cartoon drawing of Maya as the autism creature. She is green. She has a perfectly round head and a small four-legged body like a cartoonish animal. Her very large eyes are scratched out and she has a neutral expression. Behind her, red and violet blood is spattered everywhere, like there's been a massacre. She is strangely clean.

What Stormlight Characters Want for Their Birthdays
If they get presents for their birthdays, that is!
Shallan: I would like new drawing implements, Veil wants a jug of Horneater, and Radiant would like sword polish!
Adolin: …Can you even polish a shardblade?
Shallan: Radiant means to find out!
Stormfather: I would like my children to stop disobeying me!!
Stormfather.: …also a really nice wind chime.
Stormfather: …a strong one.
Lift: And I’ll take HIS lunch!
Wyndle: Y-You can’t steal the Stormfather’s lunch!
Lift: A Voidbringer WOULD say that!
Wyndle: W-Well, I am actually cultivating a very nice garden of lamps, and I would LOVE another specimen!
Syl: I’d like a tiny hat! Oh! And a bucket! And a cool rock! And a horse puppet to tease Kaladin with! And a….Wait, is there a limit?
Pattern: Mmmm…Wit introduced me to something called Sudoku…I’d like one the size of the universe please…
Adolin: I’ll take literally anything from the latest fashion magazine out of Azir. And a matching outfit for Mayalaran too please!
Mayalaran: …
Adolin: That means she loves the idea!
Rlain: I’d like the Alethi to have literally any sensitivity training.
Skar: Whoa! When did Rlain get here??
Rlain: …Literally any.
Mraize: An exotic poison. A new knife. One of those guns from Scardial. Anything festive, really.
Renarin: Something to fidget with is always nice. But I’ll happily take that sensitivity training Rlain was talking about!
Kaladin: I don’t really want anything except for my friends to finally be safe.
Kaladin: ...
Kaladin: Well, and maybe one of those “puppies” I’ve been hearing about.
Dalinar: I do not have many wants. Perhaps some sort of new fabrial. For Navani.
Szeth: I also choose a fabrial for Navani!
Dalinar: …
Szeth: Am I doing this right?
