Popular Post Braizier Posted April 14, 2019 Popular Post Report Share Posted April 14, 2019 This recently rediscovered image is believed to be from the final days of the false desolation. This “Full Set” is perhaps the final strike team to be issued out of Urithiru before its abandonment. Consisting of one representative from each order of Surgebinders they were tasked with pursing escaping Parsh and what was at the time believed to be the last remaining Thunderclast into the broken ruins of Stormseat. Tensions between the orders were already apparently high at the time of their sending, regardless no one save the Bondsmith ever returned, and no other record of what they found or experienced exists today. (scholars note: there are several spren, plants, and cremlings scattered throughout the background and margins, one wonders what other secrets may be hiding in this sketch.) 23 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGirlWhoLookedUp Posted April 14, 2019 Report Share Posted April 14, 2019 That’s amazing! I love all the details you included like the glyphs on the Shardplate and the different radiants in the background. Feels very real. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m very detail oriented and since the actual illustration size is huge (much larger than would fit on a screen at full size) I was afraid many of the little details would be lost. These are the “secrets” the scholars notes refer to. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
king of nowhere Posted April 14, 2019 Report Share Posted April 14, 2019 At first, I thought it was a piece of official art commissioned for the 4th book that we got a preview of. it's really good. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+ILuvHats Posted April 15, 2019 Report Share Posted April 15, 2019 Wow, that’s a fantastic work. Quick question though. Which order is the cloaked figure in the middle of the upper left quadrant? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Braizier Posted April 15, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2019 Lightweaver. There’s a cryptic on the hem, and I guess that one soulcast so much they’ve started to look rather inhuman Underneath the cloak. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Invocation Posted April 16, 2019 Report Share Posted April 16, 2019 Quick question: is that a Cryptic or a plant clinging to the wall level with the main Truthwatcher figure's hand, diagonal and to the left of the jumping/falling figure? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s supposed to be an open vine bud like the closed one in the foreground. I rushed that one really bad.

+Keeper Exile Posted April 16, 2019 Report Share Posted April 16, 2019 I just noticed the eyes in the bottom right canyon. That kind of details makes this an amazing piece of art. Please make more! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was one of the last touches I added, and there are still several more Easter eggs that haven’t yet been noticed . Since I just finished this one after working on it on and off for so long I’m not really sure what to draw next. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Doomstick Posted April 17, 2019 Report Share Posted April 17, 2019 why is there a shardblade stuck in the ground and not dismissed? (bottom of upper right quadrant) and is that a space whale I see? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Braizier Posted April 17, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2019 Not only that but it’s a very specific sword. (And the space whale is a hastily added cloud) - and if we’re really pulling hairs here why are ANY of their weapons out- why not spren floating next to them. Because swords are cool. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s fairly recognizable; in the official art of all 3 books. And... yeah. 2 clouds. Like I said. I added them towards the end when I just wanted the drawing to be done. I also think they look like rocks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Invocation Posted April 17, 2019 Report Share Posted April 17, 2019 (edited) That's Jezrien's Honorblade, I believe, judging from the ripples. I'm almost tempted to say Oathbringer as well, though. Am I correct on either count, @Braizier? Edited April 17, 2019 by Invocation 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Braizier Posted April 17, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2019 (edited) No! Sorry, I feel like by now they have all been guessed other than it! My fave shardblade design so far is Adolins- Mayalaran pre- deadeye. I think she was bonded to an edge-dancer .

Braizier Posted April 17, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2019 jezrians is probably the most frequently illustrated one though, and Honor blades have a notable history of being stabbed into the ground and left behind, but I really wanted to include at least one blade we had already seen in a pre recreance state. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Described in edgedancer as circular ripples in the air above people’s heads. It’s my theory that concentration spren will have a connection to truth watchers in the same way windspren are tied to wind runners, creation spren to light-weavers, and glory spren to bondsmiths. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
