I make lego fan art and animations of books I like; it's a slow process so art posts are infrequent. He/him. Pro-vax, pro-choice, BLM.

The White Tower at Tar Valon from The Wheel of Time by Robert Jordan. 1/3 #thewheeloftime #robertjordan #lego
A lego build of a white tower with two wings on opposite sides. There is a bustling street out front. Closeup of a merchant cart with the sign Ol' Rigney's Pipes and Tabac. The merchant is wearing a dark wide brimmed hat. In the alleyway behind, vendors sell lionfish and ice peppers. A novice in white is marking a corner of the tower with graffiti that says Elaida is a goat-kissing silverpike. A woman in red with a gold ring is rounding the corner with a scowl on her face. Nobles, novices, Aes Sedai, and guards mingle in the entryway to the tower.

A lego scene of a ship sailing on an ocean towards a port in a cliff face. Three lime green skyeels dive in and out of the water near the ship as a smiling young woman with red hair studies them. The port city is build into a notch in the cliff face. There are terraces of houses and towers with ramps zig zagging up between them, climbing to a palace at the top.

Wandersail, from chapter 57 of The Way of Kings (The Stormlight Archive book 1) by Brandon Sanderson. #thestormlightarchive #brandonsanderson #lego #blender
A lego scene on the edge of a vast, broken plain. Night is falling and the horizon fades from light blue to deep blue, with stars and a purple moon becoming visible. In the foreground, a man in black sits on a boulder playing a flute while a man in ragged clothing watches. A small campfire between them emits smoke in the shape of a sailing ship.

(The Way of Kings spoilers) The Tower, from chapter 65 of The Way of Kings (The Stormlight Archive book 1 by Brandon Sanderson. #thestormlightarchive #brandonsanderson #lego #cosmere
A lego scene of a battle. The terrain is an enormous plateau broken by deep chasms, like a mud flat cracked in the sun. On a distant hill, thousands of red and black figures surround a smaller number of warriors in blue. In the foreground, soldiers in green and white trudge away from the battle, surrounding a smirking man in red plate armor.

I'm excited to see there's a #booktok #book conversation tab here. Book art is my favorite art to do. I've got #wheeloftime art out the wazoo. Here's Rand being all...Rand. I really don't think he was whiny. I think he was a kid and handed a heavy burden. #sympathyforthedragon

The Lesson, from chapter 36 of The Way of Kings by Brandon Sanderson. #thestormlightarchive #brandonsanderson #lego #fanart #blender
A lego scene showing a curved alleyway at night. Two women are surrounded by four rough-looking men. To the right, tiers of buildings climb a steep mountainside. Overhead, a field of stars surrounds a pale blue moon. One of the men has been turned to a glassy quartz and another is enveloped by fire. Lightning bolts are emanating from one of the women’s hands and are striking the two remaining men. The other woman appears startled and concerned.

Happy holidays! Here's Brandon Sanderson sporting a Mistborn holiday sweater. The original sweater was designed by Priscilla Spencer (@priscellie.bsky.social) of Dragonsteel, and I modified the proportions slightly to fit on a minifigure. #brandonsanderson #mistborn #lego #fanart
Lego minifigure of Brandon Sanderson wearing glasses, a dark red holiday sweater, and jeans. The sweater has three rows of allomantic symbols interwoven with snowflakes and zig zag lines, matching the design of the sweater sold on Brandon's website.
