Dropping this super fun papercraft that was commissioned by Brandon Sanderson and the team over at Dragonsteel for use on their upcoming paperback Sanderson Starter Pack (to be soon available on their TikTok shop!)

If you dig down into the depths of my Instagram feed, you'll find that Mistborn was one of my very first papercraft inspirations, and it was lovely to have a chance to revisit it with this new rendition. But then to find out that they commissioned three different papercraft artists for this starter pack? 😱 How cool to be part of a little papercraft tribe for this project! 🙌 They're all so wonderful!

You can check out the full announcement on Brandon Sanderson's Youtube channel (posted last week!)

stormlight book six: shallan and adolin's marriage breaks down because they both guiltily confess to cheating on each other. two weeks and several very awkward conversations later, they realise they were cheating on each other with the same person - kaladin - who was under the impression they were in an open relationship.

Some little sneak peak for the Mistborn world guide :) since three pages have been showcased at Nexus this year. 

So here is Luthadel. I carried my value and composition studies from the Final Empire reread over to how I made my thumbnails and it helped a lot with creating the pages (made it faster, too) than the primarily line based approach in the earlier stages which I used mostly before. 

I think my favourite of all the scadrial pages is still the one for the Roughs, but Luthadel has many bits I am really happy with and which turned out close enough to how I envisioned them.

A non-comprehensive list of media that makes me go "your house really shouldn't be doing that, man":

House of leaves

Piranesi

Blue Prince

I read Piranesi earlier this year, and I’m currently playing Blue Prince. I had no idea about the similarities and since I came across this post, I’ll definitely be reading House of Leaves next month.

rereading TotES for the 3rd time and I think about this drawing every single time Huck is mentioned. I adore this cute lil guy

Ugly sketchbook - february wrapped is here!

My challenge to "draw more" is going pretty well so far. February is a short month, so it hasn't been as productive as January, but I think I'm doing fine. This month I've had some unsuccessful oil pastel attempts and some cross-hatching attempts that I'm happy with. Anyway, here are the pages:

Ok, so I am now watching the full 18 minute video on YouTube and it's amazing.

Especially the line "I realised I have absolutely no idea how to teach an octopus piano."

For a long time, I hadn’t been keeping a sketchbook regularly. I realized the reason was that I couldn’t stand seeing bad drawings in my sketchbook. I had to spend a lot of time on each drawing to make it look the way I wanted and I just don’t have that much time anymore.

This might sound a bit romantic, but it reminds me of a sentence I read in a book I love. It’ll probably get lost in translation, but it’s something like: “Out of fear of hanging a bad painting, I never hung a painting; out of fear of living badly, I never lived.”

Anyway. I finally accepted that my sketchbook doesn’t have to look like an art gallery. And you know what? In January 2026, I drew more than I did in all of 2025. I’m happy with my ugly sketchbook. Here are some pages from it:

I cannot wait to watch Gavilar's bitch ass get murdered every season. I'm so excited to see the show only fans slowly start to realize what was really going on.
