Description

Shallan and the Symbol heads

Here is a sketch I did of Shallan doing her famous sketch of the Symbol head people in Brandon Sanderson's Way of Kings.

This is a scene that really stuck out to me while I was reading the book. Also, I hadn't seen any other depictions of it so I decided to be the first.

This is mostly a concept sketch. I want to do up a larger more detailed drawing using some references for the foreshortened body parts (hand and legs, etc).

The symbol I chose for their heads are based on Celtic knotwork with an attempt to make them look kinda creepy. Not sure if the symbols are what Brandon had in mind but I like them.

Let me know what you think!
