Bridging Chasms Page 3! As we enter the Chasms of the Shattered Plains I moved away from traditional panels to a more organic visual flow. Swipe to see close-ups! For those of you who are new, this is a page from my one-shot fancomic of Brandon Sanderson's Words of Radiance novel. The first to pages can be found in my profile. #bridgingChasms #shallan #Kaladin #StormlightArchive #cosmere https://www.instagram.com/p/B5tHnpPgTjV/?igshid=btkz74xa9n4v

The first page of Bridging Chasms featuring the characters Kaladin, Dalinar, Adolin, and Shallan on the shattered plains. For this particular project I wanted to do something different than I normally would-- a limited color palette with minimal dialogue. #bridgingChasms #StormlightArchive #Kaladin #Dalinar #adolin #shallan #wordsofRadiance #cosmere https://www.instagram.com/p/B5nu9HUAkPN/?igshid=2u2jh6kr60yd

Bridging Chasms page 2! I wanted to keep the style of this comic loose and more painterly. Most of these pages were painted in greyscale on a single layer with a color layer on top. #bridgingChasms #Kaladin #Dalinar #shallan #syl #falling #StormlightArchive #wordsofRadiance https://www.instagram.com/p/B5qVZlbAuQX/?igshid=cr15pf9w619p

I may have added in a Zelda reference cause it was too good to pass up... Bridging Chasms Page 10! This depicts the scene where Kaladin finds out Shallan has a shard blade in the book Words of Radiance by @brandsanderson #shardblade #pattern #wordsofRadiance #StormlightArchive #cosmere #kaladinstormblessed #comic #bridgingChasms https://www.instagram.com/p/B6I6_wQj3Oc/?igshid=4znqp7fec31s

And thus concludes Bridging Chasms! Thanks for everyone who followed along as I posted these pages! What did you think? I'd love to hear what your favorite parts were. As I worked on this piece I wanted to show how Shallan and Kaladin come together --not in a romantic way but as friends who have a new found respect for one another. And even though Kaladin is facing the failure of losing Syl he's able to find that spark of hope. Hopefully that comes across in this conclusion! On Thursday I'll be posting a link to where you can download the compete PDF for free so keep an eye out for that. #bridgingChasms #wordsofRadiance #StormlightArchive #BrandonSanderson #cosmere #adolin #kaladinstormblessed #Shallan #comicillustration #artoninstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/B6d69fCD2ki/?igshid=141cxvwlajkrp

They made it! I thought it would be appropriate to have Teft be the one who was waiting for Kal even after the highstorm had passed. This particular moment wasn't written in the book, but this is how I imagined it. And I wanted to show visually how far Shallan and Kaladin had come from the beginning of the arc till now. From being completely different and divided to being able to rely upon one another emotionally and physically. Together, they faced exceptional odds and survived-- and were better people for it. #bridgingChasms #teft #bridgefour #wordsofRadiance #StormlightArchive #comic #comicadaptation #Shallan #kaladinstormblessed https://www.instagram.com/p/B6V6vQkAYkk/?igshid=kknpuh08mzcw
