There are really gorgeous splendid artwork over here. My favorite being this fantastic portrait MKing did of Vin some pages ago. But I'm in awe in front of most of what InkThinker (got the name right?) does.

I did do a sketch of Vin I painted some months back, but I can't put my hands on it right now. It's not as extraordinary as some the art you can find here but still, it matched my idea of Vin so I guess it's quite enough. I find Brandon's stories very inspiring.

Finally got around to finishing a piece I had started months ago. Not a literal scene from the book, but I think it captured the feeling I wanted pretty well. So here's Vin in her shirt and trousers before she got a Mistcloak , with a creepy Inquistor stalking her. I also decided to go with more of the amber colored night time from the ashfall, rather than the blue I had been using lately.

Pretty slick, mking, you're really improving! Keep it up!!

Should his eyes appear gold, though? Steel spikes would reflect the ambient color, with perhaps a touch of desaturated blue/grey, I think.

Also, I imagine Inquisitors as always being intimidatingly large (though I don't suppose they have to be).

I don't remember anything saying they were large for sure.  After all they were regular people at one point.

. . . then again, so were Koloss.

Thanks Inkthinker and Miyabi!

I don't know why I had it in my head that the spikes were bronze-ish. I didn't have my books with me to reference, so I just went with it.

I think maybe it's just that they're always "intimidating", and I tend to automatically associate that with being big.

And given that Feruchemy allows a man to bulk up using stored strength, and Hemalurgy steals power in a way similar to the way Feruchemy stores it (am I right about that?), it made sense to me that even if you were the proverbial 98-pound sand-spitting weakboy, being spiked could bulk you up better than a year of steroid smoothies.

I guess it could totally work that way.  Like make them more muscular, but as far as taller I don't think so, but I get where you are coming from.

I love it, Mking!

I'm glad it's not a scene straight from the book though... if an Inquisitor got that close to Vin that early on, there would have been no story, haha, unless we were going to read about Vin's corpse for a few hundred pages.
You can think without acting and you can act without thinking... but which is worse?

Really nice. Just one thing: Vin could be shorter. She's mentioned as small and diminutive in the book.

Thought I'd post this up where the majority of Mistborn fans might see it.  I'm a die-hard fan of this series, and I finally got an excuse to do a bad-ass fanart for it.   This might be a bit spoilerific for people, and gory, so beware.

wow
I must not fear;
Fear is the mind killer;
I will face my fear;
I will let it pass through me;
When the fear is gone, there will be nothing;
Only I will remain.
