Description
Survivor of Hathsin
“But you can’t kill me, Lord Tyrant. I represent that one thing you’ve never been able to kill, no matter how hard you try. I am hope.” The Final Empire / Brandon Sanderson
Kelsier is the main “culprit” for the entire chaos in “Mistborn” trilogy. Blond guy with the distinctive scars running down his arms, to be precise.
Other bald guys with spikes through their eyes and facial tattoos are Steel Inquisitors…hard core sort of “people”.

Tnx! Gave my best to represent it properly.

Your style here is fascinating and reminds me of... something... maybe Samurai Jack? Regardless this is awesome, I love the expression which seems to capture the attitude of Kelsier and the Inquisitors. Fantastic job!
I hope you don’t mind, but I would like to ask you a question. I am TheBlueShifting, and on my YouTube channel I am doing a series called “Leters From the Cosmere.” They are a series that Brandon Sanderson helped me start, told from the perspective of a Worldhopper named Elsric who explores the Cosmere and reports on his findings. The series is meant to be a place where new fans of Brandon’s work can find information about the inner connectedness of his books, while also providing a fun narrative. This series is great because I have been able to work with artists like yourself. I would love to feature your Cosmere art in my series! I promise to only use your art if you approve, and I make sure to do my best to direct my viewers back to your websites to see more of what you can do.
I am so grateful for artists like yourself who help me see the Cosmere in ways I never could. I hope this is a project that you feel you can support. If you want to see what this project is like, here is a link: youtu.be/9T5Aw5rJ8nQ
I look forward to hearing from you!

Sure, mate.
If you want to use some of my Mistborn fan art there's no problem at all.
Just give me credits with my info/dA link in project's description.
And I hope it's just for project's presentation purpose?
Wow, Brandon Sanderson helped you with it? Really? That is so great!

Yes, its just for showing while I voice act the letter. Your art would just be featured as a visual enhancement to my writing and only to be used in these videos. I hope that I can help share your Cosmere work with other fans of the series. Your link will be listed with the other artists first thing in the description. If you follow the link, you can see exactly how the art would be used. If there is anything you are concerned about, just let me know.
Yes, Brandon gave me permission to make the series, and helped me establish the character's backstory. I also recently saw him at a signing and he said he really like how the series was progressing and asked that I continue to link the videos to his twitter. It's a pretty awesome story, and I do my best to make each episode with care.
Like I said, let me know if there is anything you are uncomfortable with, I don't want to use your art without you being 100% okay with it. Also do you prefer that I use the Deviant Art link for your work, or do you have another website that you would prefer?

dA link would be just fine.
Let me know when you finish with montage. I would like to see how it fit with your narrative (though I'm pretty sure it will be great).
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Will do, I try to match themes and topics, but there just isn't enough art of enough variety to make it 100%. But I'll make sure to show it off in the best way possible. I'll dm you a link when I publish!

Always makes me so incredibly happy to see some Mistborn art: HUGE Sanderson fan here. These are gorgeous pieces, and Kelsier's smile is pretty great.

napokon shvaćam što se tu dešava

Hahaha, jeste, priznajem - potpuno je konfuzna cela ilustracija, ako nisi upoznata sa celom pričom.

Those inquisitors look so frustrated at not being able to catch him. I like the sense of movement here, that he's just out of their reach.

Thank you very much for nice comment. Well, you know Kelsier...always like to play with this "guys"...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
You're welcome, and you have a nice gallery.
I enjoyed reading the Mistborn series. I suspect that's about how the inquisitors felt about Kelsier.

Yes, just great trilogy!

Dude, I swear. You draw these exactly in the order I read the books. It's kinda creepy. But they're awesome.

Oh this is really cool, it has some nice details that the thumb really doesn't do justice.

I do, it is pretty cool! I wish i could think of something more original to say, but I do think you did a great job!

This is more than enough for me, believe me!

How so? I always feel so bad when I can think of something not very interesting. I am happy you are friendly about it though.

Well, I have the same problem when I need to thank in reply...

I see, I can find it hard for the same reason too!

What to do - I'm just a modest man.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well modesty can be good, especially since it is easy to have an ego on a art site. You are friendly to talk to and that is really great!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yes, ego is all over this place...

Sadly yes

i must admit i did visualise the spikes much longer... my distorted imagination!!! think yours are more realistic xD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Honestly, I was in doubt about the size of spikes. 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
ok, so it's not only my twisted imagination XDDD, I think I'm due for a reread of them, so I can start to pay attention to details and descriptions, and maybe be inspired to do some illustrations, Sanderson is a pretty good writer, and the ideas in Mistborn are so cool! you actually did a very good job!!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yes, I really like that dark dystopian world, with all the concept, characters and Brandon's writing style. Very inspiring.

I have to say Mistborn was only a blip on my radar, although I DID like it. But the best part is definitely the Steel Inquisitors. AWESOME!
