As a final project during my senior year's self-publishing class, I decided to make a Kholin Family zine. Unfortunately, I didn't realize until too late that I'm not able to sell the zine as I'd hoped to without violating copyright. So instead, I'm going to go ahead and post up the artwork that I made in here.
Plus, after talking things over with the Sanderson team, I can sell prints of the artwork itself. So that's good =)
Also, I'm allowed to give the zines away. I just can't sell them. so I'm going to be looking for some opportunities to set up Zine giveaways to other Stormlight Archive fans. Do stay tuned
Note: I feel really good about some of these illustrations, and not so good about others. That's the nature of art in general, but it's also a result of the crazy deadlines that I was under to get these made. They moved me to make a lot happen, but they also prevented me from spending the kind of time that I would have liked to on getting them right.
All that being said, I hope you enjoy them. Let me know what you think!
p.s. I'll be posting up more progress shots and finished Stormlight Archive fan art on my Instagram channel. Feel free to follow me if you want to see more. @grantmhansen.
I just recently finished this piece. It was so much fun to work on, but man was it a rabbit hole to figure it out The finished product was a combination of a bunch of real satellite data from US Space Shuttle missions, blended together in photoshop and then passed through a 3D rendering program and a bunch of digital painting tools for the final result.
I've attached a lower-res version of the piece here. For more detail, go to wayofthemap.com
