Orion the Hunter he/him Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 I'm planning on making a large woodburned piece to sell at a fundraising auction, and I want to do some cosmere art. The problem is, there is so much cool stuff to choose from! Some stuff that I have already done for a few small projects are my Aon Pendants and Knights Radiant Pendants. I would love any suggestions that you guys have. 1
Hemalurgic Headshot he/him Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 You haven't done any Allomantic symbols yet. I suggest the Allomantic chart, arranged radially.
Orion the Hunter he/him Posted March 15, 2017 Author Posted March 15, 2017 Keep in mind that this is intended for people who probably don't read Sanderson books. I'm not planning to do pendants for this, though Allomantic symbol pendants is a great idea. 1
Hemalurgic Headshot he/him Posted March 15, 2017 Posted March 15, 2017 So you want it to be cosmere related, but not blatantly cosmere? Perhaps the chapter symbol for Kaladin? The spears and flag. It looks good by itself.
Orion the Hunter he/him Posted March 15, 2017 Author Posted March 15, 2017 (edited) Well, if I was going to do the allomancy table, I wouldn't have any of the text or explanation of the symbols on it. By the way, I'd also rather stay away from shading. Edited March 16, 2017 by Orion the Infinite 1
Hemalurgic Headshot he/him Posted March 15, 2017 Posted March 15, 2017 Okay. Well, I can't think of anything else.
TheBlueShifting he/him Posted March 15, 2017 Posted March 15, 2017 What about the large hourglass shape that depicts the 10 essences. its intricate and beautiful. It would be better for a large display. 2

You realize that it's probably gonna be bought by someone who gets the reference anyway, yeah? edit: Totally awesome idea for some other time, you should totally make a Lurcher shield. Like, make a sweet shield, then burn decorations and stuff onto it, with a giant Allomantic iron symbol in the middle. Edited March 16, 2017 by Gargoyle
Orion the Hunter he/him Posted March 16, 2017 Author Posted March 16, 2017 By the way, the maximum size my piece can be is 12" by 24". If I try to do a large and complex picture, such as the image below, I may not have the space to really make fine details.

I'm not seeing an hourglass particularly, plus this is the chart of the orders of the Knights Radiant and their associated Surges.

The hourglass shape is in the stylization described in the book. Now, this obviously has the ten orders and the surges, but if I remember correctly the surges have gained multiple meanings in the book.
Orion the Hunter he/him Posted March 24, 2017 Author Posted March 24, 2017 Here is the final product! For sake of time, I did the table of allomantic metals instead of the Knights Radiant glyphs. See a few more pictures of this in the Gallery. 6
