I’ve been dealing with the stress of preparing for this weekend’s HermitCraft charity streams by re-reading the first two books of the Stormlight Archive.

Last night I had a dream that Jasnah Kholin called my cell phone and was annoyed with me when I answered “Joe Hills, master of mysticism!”

Took these from my shit posting TikTok, maybe they'll be better appreciated here

The Stormlight Archive by Josh Corpuz

Shallan, Dalinar, Kaladin, Jasnah, Szeth

Pattern, Moash, Adolin, Syl, Rock, Gaz

Hoid, Lopen, Eshonai, Navani, Zahel

Sadeas, Lift, Veil, Teft, Rlain

Ben McSweeney: Pretty excellent, I like a lot of these!

The artist is from the Phillipines, and they do superb animation work as well. I think they're tied up in videogames, working on JRPGs.

jasnah makes me a bit insane because she wants to act all aloof and unaffected but if you take a step back and look at her actions it's actually ridiculously easy to see how she cares so so so so much. talking to the assassin in secret because she doesn't want her family to worry. paying a huge amounts of money for liss to only keep watch because even though she suspects that *the wife to the direct heir of the throne* is actually a traitor she doesn't want to do that to her little brother. willingly putting herself in danger so she can eradicate any threats to citizens who are unable to protect themselves in the way she can. goes out of her way to solve all of her ward's problems even after she knew shallan had been lying and planning to betray her since day one. and on top of that being worried that shallan (who, once again, had been planning to cheat her all along) would not be happy with the solution she found because she doesn't want her to be unhappy. jasnah kholin i love you.

taken me ages but behold archive karecktors

adolin and maya beloved but also the most time consuming because i had to figure out how the hell i was going to do adolin's hair and not hate looking at it, and maya took me forever to figure out the colours lol. looked at so many references trying to figure out what dead vines should look like and what i would like it to look and i couldnt really find what i wanted lol. but what i went for was like really dried out and very very dead looking fibre. that wasnt too bad but trying to figure out her clothes that would look decent before and after she becomes a deadeye was hell for me an amateur colour theory understander lmao

i have drawn shallan before so she wasn't too difficult but i was truly torn about which version of pattern i wanted to show?? so i did a few of them hahah. i did a canon compliant version, alluding a bit to BE NOT AFRAID angel vibes. but im pretty passionate about ferrofluid-looking pattern as thats what i picture in my head (but i couldnt really find a good reference so i couldnt really do it well. it's also like, about the way it moves more than a still frame so extra challenge). and if you've seen my shallan art you know i. asdlkfjh. i originally pictured pattern as a QR code so i was compelled to continue it. @mistbjorn this one's for you because youre so right <3

syl i usually picture similar to kida in disney's atlantis when she merges with the crystal and you can see her scalp beneath her transparent hair, so thats the inspo for her. for the sylspear i designed it to look a bit like a caduceus as homage to kaladin's medical training and his dad, and like it's not that deep but i guess the swirly glowy bits are his duality and being torn between two worlds etc etc or you can just picture spren zipping about if you want lol like i definitely pictured syl was one but the other makes no sense

the kholins i dont have much to say since they were not part of my original plan hahaha but i couldn't help adding them too. i lowkey struggled to make them unique but also similar because family alksdjfhs i was sketching this around a time i did a lot of face studies so it was so whack and the colouring absolutely killed me so it is what it is asldkjaklsdjf

Wit and Jasnah  This is the other art coming from the little art trade with Pekgna. Among their suggestions was to do something based on a J.C. Leyendecker painting and so we did. They actually have another lovely rendering of a Jasnah and Wit scene. Check it out ;)

i just finished words of radiance and my dudes this is probably the best fantasy book I’ve ever read

points about it:

. okay so mr kaladin “honor is dead but i’ll see what i can do” stormblessed carried this book, he is becoming one of my all time favorite characters

. my bestie shallan working the oathgate? revealing to dalinar that she is one of the radiants? i love her honesty

. my boy adolin killed sadeas, finally that slimy rat got what he deserved

. renarin????? truthwatcher????? i knew he was going to be important, i’m so happy for him

. moash my dude, i’m disappointed

. dalinar bonding with the stormfather, you go bondsmith!!

. the whole parshendi summoning the everstorm part was so freaking good

. kaladin saving everyone while revealing he’s radiant, not going to lie. i’ve cried a bit at that part

final consideration:

it is certainly one of the best fantasy books out there, sanderson manages to build the world and the characters so well. can’t wait for what oathbringer has in store for me.

Thing is, you're going at it wrong. "Is Jasnah's atheism an accurate belief?" boils down to "what does 'god' mean to Jasnah?", not "what does 'god' mean to modern American Christians?" or even "what does 'god' mean to the average Vorin?".
