Mistborn Shadow Box Master Post

Recently, I began working on a Shadow Box concept using paper, resin, and various mix-ins in a 4" square coaster mold.

Mistborn has such a dynamic and bold aesthetic that it felt like a wonderful place to start. It was also my first Cosmere book.

At least if it's Ruined, it's still perfectly in setting.

I started by drawing out a high-contrast, dynamic silhouette of Best Girl Vin above Luthadel.

Each layer was cut out of card stock. I picked a shimmery metallic for the skyline but it doesn't read through the resin so I'll skip next time.

I poured a layer of resin mixed with gray and black mica powder for ash into the channels around the rim of the coaster.

I alternated resin and paper to space the pieces out, swirling white ink between the rooftops for Mist.

A quick peek through the bottom of the mold shows nothing shifted out of position...

The last layer has a lot of red and Garnet ink swirled in. I deliberately under-blended it to get some variety in the pockets of color.

Something I didn't anticipate is the difference in density between the paper and resin. Thin spots tried really hard to float leading to some odd curling in the corners, but nothing deal-breaking.

And the big reveal!

... kinda underwhelming. I went too hard on the mists, and a lot of that ash escaped containment making the whole effect muddied and hard to see ...

BUT WHAT IF WE BURN TIN!?

Awww yeeeah, there's our girl. The red background being transparent and irregular really let's that fiery red sun POP.

A softer background mutes those lovely Allomancy lines but the effect is just too pretty to fault it.

I learned a lot from this project and already have some exciting ideas for more!

Stay tuned for the next one in progress right now

Got my friend into Stormlight. Don’t regret it one bit.

"What is coming?"

YOUR LEGACY.

THESE WORDS ARE NOT ACCEPTED.

I HAVE SEEN A GLIMPSE OF WHAT IS COMING. I WILL NOT PREVENT IT.

genuinely one of the funniest things is that every time i read “meridas” as in meridas amaram i actually read it as “mierda” (shit)

They say you either die a hero or live to become a villain. But sometimes you can do both.

Has anyone made a waffle press shaped like a Cryptic yet

i can’t believe i was sat here like ??? when a character called milan was introduced when i KNEW melaan was in mistborn era 2

personally, I think Hoid is the actual main character of the Cosmere. we just don’t know it yet

Cosmere fans: what non-Sanderson characters are you convinced are secretly Hoid?

Sarene: Well, my husband's apparently dead, so I have nothing to do. Time to troll people in power.  Ashe: Please don't troll the King, my lady.  Sarene: Of course not.  Ashe: Oh thank goodness Sarene: That would be too easy. Now, that religious crusader with the armor, psychopathic sidekick, and massive army of priests… he might be fun to play with Ashe: Oh sweet merciful Domi why *meanwhile in zombieland* Raoden: I am going to cure everyone's depression using shoes and history books Galladon: Pretty sure that hasn't ever worked Raoden: Of course it hasn't worked, it hasn't been done by ME yet. 

I love Elantris so much. The rest of the Cosmere gives us complex backstories and traumas seasoned with snark and philosophy and epic magic systems. Elantris is just two separated soulmates who decided to punch fate in the face because they felt like it. Simple, but delicious.

See, when I found out that opposite of my particular flavour of queer was alloromantic, I misread it and was like "Damn, why don't I get to burn metals?"

You relied on wit and people died on it? Something something sigzil? Something something dawnshard?

Sixth of the Dusk gets roped into a game show where they play Name That Bird and he’s going up against a Rosharan who thinks every bird is a chicken (but always gets shown chickens), meanwhile Sixth’s getting birds like the roseate spoonbill.

Another victory to share!!! My dad is now reading Stormlight after refusing to read it repeatedly!!

So, this is my petition to call jorge Rivera-Herrans the brandon sanderson of music. With the amount and the quality of his works, and how fast he releases them.

Also, boyhe are payed in trauma

I love the idea, that we, as a fandom managed to collectively agree that the hottest character in the source material is *Main character *

*Hit Send to all fandoms and ran*

I think I hauve covid
