Portrait that I painted of Wit/Hoid. DEFINITELY a favorite character in Brandon's Cosmere. Every new discovery about this guy and his past/nature/powers opens up the universe in a way that most other characters can't quite compare to.

Thank you, Brandon, for writing us such an intriguing role.

If you folks know any cool facts about Wit that I don't know (and you probably do), tell me abou 'em!

Definitely will =) I'm wrapping up a new Kaladin Piece right now, then I think I'll pop the lot of them up in the forums and gallery and such. 

 

Thanks for checking them out!

Awesome art work! He looks a little more like Benedict Cumberbatch than I'd imagined him as, but I love the piece irregardless. :D

Yeah, you know I'd never thought of any sort of Cumberbatchiness to Wit (though, truth be told I don't exactly put a set face to any character when I'm reading. More an amorphous generalization) but as I started looking through head shapes and such Benedict came to mind and I thought: "hm. Benedict wouldn't be half bad as Wit, would he?" 

So I inducted some of his features into the illustration.

 

Earlier versions had WAY more Cumberbatch in them, but I didn't want to rip too directly off of his face (it also didn't quite match the aforementioned amorphous generalization I had for Wit) so I made some changes. 

 

Thanks for loving the piece!
