I finally get to share some Six of Crows art I did last year for @insighteditions! Here’s Kaz Brekker as he appears in A Darker Shore: Letters from Ketterdam, the new Grishaverse short story told through found documents and set in the years after Crooked Kingdom. Merchants of Ketterdam have been under attack. Ships sunk. Slavers hunted as they once hunted their victims. All the work of a mysterious sea captain and her ship, the Wraith. As the lead investigator tries to piece together the truth behind the latest massacre, he makes sketches in his journal, which are actually my sketches! 😄 I’m not sure how many I’ll be allowed to post, but this one of Kaz might be my favourite.
I was beyond excited to draw this scene. Normally I get asked to draw romance, but this time it was a...different kind of passion. Something inside Kaz came loose, indeed 💀 It's one of my favourite moments in the book, despite what he just did, because it's when I understood exactly what Inej means to him. It's amazing what we'll forgive in fiction that we couldn't in real life.

She is tolerable, but not handsome enough to tempt me; and I am in no humour at present to give consequence to young ladies who are slighted by other men.

Time for some classics! Here's the sketch for now, will try to colour it soon
