Hello! New to the fandom

[ponpon123]

Hi all! I finished Oathbringer after a long break between it and WoR, and it really sucked me back into SA (which I've liked for a couple years). I haven't been so into a book series for a while, enough so that I had to come register here.

I've never been great at understanding the nitty-gritty of complicated fantasy, so my main form of contribution will probably be the occasional fanart, rather than any deep discussion. I've already submitted a couple of paintings to the gallery (Dalinar is my fave in case you can't tell.....) 

I'm looking forward to getting familiar with you all, and making more art!

Hello and welcome to the shard!

I like your art a lot!

Did you read something else but Stormlight as well?

Thank you! If you're referring to Cosmere, I've only read SA so far! I haven't had the chance to check out the novellas and short stories yet, either.

If you haven’t read Edgedancer yet, I’d highly recommend it. It’s a novella centered around Lift that takes place in between Words of Radiance and Oathbringer (if I recall correctly) and it is all around awesome.

Your art is fantastic!

I would also highly recommend reading the rest of the cosmere as soon a possible.

Welcome

Thanks everyone! I'll for sure try to pick up the remaining Cosmere works sooner than later. I'm excited to dive in further

Welcome to the Shard! I'm really just echoing what everyone else is saying but I really like your art, Dalinar is a bad chull!

I'm glad you like that, scars and damage are probably some of my favourite things to draw (no wonder I gravitated to Dalinar first)! Thank you <3

I've seen your Dalinars here and there (Reddit definitely, maybe IG too). I've been meaning to ask you if I can put them up on the Coppermind wiki so be on the lookout for a PM... somewhere

Very much looking forward to seeing more from you
