Interlude I:1.
Stormwagon

*Note: I made this myself to add to my figure collection, it is not one of the Brotherwise miniatures!

Based on #StormlightArchive series by Brandon Sanderson

Stormwagons are sturdy wood carriages built to withstand Highstorms.

More details in Alt texts.
#cosmere
Miniature wooden storm wagon resting on a wooden surface. The wagon has solid wooden sides and a slanted roof. During a highstorm the wagon would be stationed with the angled roof toward the storm wall to break the winds. The wagon has a hanging lantern, a wooden bench for a driver, and two square wood beams that extend forward to be hitched to a chull. Photo taken of wagon from the front right side. Image of stormwagon taken from front left angle. The angled roof is visible from this side. Rear right view of the Stormwagon. The wood plank door has a knob created from a straight pin, and the door swings open (not pictured). Right side view of the Stormwagon. I made the wheels out of shields painted with metal hubs and outer rims.

Taravangian
King of Karbranth

From Words of Radiance by Brandon Sanderson

Images: Miniature model of Taravangian standing among Diagram books and pages, and crossing fingers behind his back.

Details in alt text.
#stormlightarchive #stormlightminiatures #stormlightminis #cosmere
Front view of Taravangian, a slender, elderly man in royal orange and white robes with heavy gold embroidery. He wears a flat topped orange hat with a gold band, and has white hair and a long white beard. His left hand rests on a wooden staff, while his right arm is tucked behind him. On the stone books with colorful ribbon markers and pages with faded writing are scattered at his feet. Left side view of Taravangian, arm resting on wooden staff in the foreground. Some of the book pages are visible with writing on them. Wish I had taken a top-down view of them! They are nearly microscopic and it took a lot of practice to get that part right! 😆 Right side view of Taravangian, his curved stature and long beard clearly visible. His right arm is bent behind his back at waist height. The gold thorn embroidery on his robes took many attempts, but I am happy with this look. In my own head canon, Taravangian’s robes were embroidered in white when we meet him in The Way of Kings, but by Words of Radiance, he has subconsciously been moving away from appearing as humble as he used to aim for and is subtly incorporating elements of gold. Rear view of Taravangian, King of Karbranth. His right hand, hidden from front and side views, can be seen to have the first two fingers crossed in the liar’s signal. The cuffs and scarf of his robes are white, and the back of his robes are orange and gold.

Pattern
Cryptic Spren
Character from Words of Radiance, Book 2 of the #StormlightArchive by #BrandonSanderson
Pattern was one of the first pieces I painted, and I would love to go back some day and do his head better.
Details in alt texts
#cosmere #artsarcanum #stormlightminiatures #stormlightminis
Miniature figure of Shallan’s spren Pattern as he appears in Shadesmar. Pattern is solid black except for his marble white hands. He wears stiff a robe in sharp folds, and instead of a head, there is a mass of lines in a fractal pattern. He is standing on shiny black obsidian land of Shadesmar. I painted the head too many times and much of the detail has been obscured. If I have a chance, I would do a more interesting paint job with his robes, and make his head look nicer. He deserves to look good- he’s famous! Rear view of Pattern Side view of Pattern. I hope to some day remove this paint and try again.

Her shardplate armor is silver-gray and the shardblade is a lighter silver shade.

Eshonai is posed in a somewhat heroic stance, left leg braced on a boulder in front of her. Right side view of Eshonai. A bit more of the cape is visible. I added small stones to the base of the terrain the make a rockier scene. Left side view of Eshonai Rear view of Eshonai.

And here are better photos and alt descriptions for the Shardbearer, whom I have painted in a very slightly garish red to be Highprince Torol Sadeas. I’d like to get another Dalinar and replace this unnamed Shardblade with Oathbringer.
#stormlight #cosmere #wayofkings #miniature
Front view of a Shardbearer figurine. A soldier is covered in heavy plate armor painted a shiny metallic red from head to toe. The figure is posed facing the camera, arms and body turned to the right holding a Shardblade above its head. The legs are spread in a wide battle stance, left foot forward, right leg back and knees slightly bent.The smooth helm has only narrow eye and mouth openings and is protected by a high collar of a neck piece. His left shoulder is lowered forward, and the pauldron has extra ridges at the top corner, curving up into a V shape that would catch blades and spears. The edge of the sword blade is turned toward the viewer, creating a thin band of silver as the sword is held up and angled over the head. The base of the figure is a dark brown covered with reddish stones. Right side view of the Shardbearer miniature. The figure is in a battle stance facing away from the camera, and the right arm is back, elbow up, Shardblade held in hand. Slightly more of the sword blade is visible, with curving edges on the lower half of the blade. A silver pommel extends below the left hand. This blade looks to be fairly straight in line with its blade, so the artist did a decent job not bending it. I added small stones to the terrain and painted them reddish with a tan finish of crem. Rear view of the Shardbearer that shows the flat blade of the sword extending above the figure. Both sides of the sword have symmetrical curves and ridges added to the lower half of the blade. This blade is not Oathbringer, and Highprince Torol Sadeas did not own one before, so we are pretending that this is him sparring in the training grounds with a borrowed sword. The special ridges on both shoulder pauldrons can be clearly seen, with their V shaped notches in the center. The back of the armor plates can be seen, and are all painted the same shiny red. The armor has a knee-length skitt of mail in overlapping diamonds on the front and back that attach to segmented plate armor on the thighs. The armor terms might be greaves or maybe cuisse. I am not a lawyer. The left front foot stands among rocks and a splash of orange-red Parshendi blood.

Dalinar Kholin, Blackthorn
1:34mm miniature by Brotherwise Games
I took better photos with my newer lighting arrangement, and added better alt text to the images ✨
#stormlight #cosmere #dalinar #stormlightminis #cremposting
Front right side view of figure of Dalinar Kholin in full Shardplate armor. The plate is a solid gray metal without adornment. Dalinar’s arms are raised over his helm in a grip on the Shardblade Oathbringer, which is nearly as tall as the figure itself. Dalinar is posed with left knee raised and sword held overhead and behind him in preparation for a swinging blow from above. He stands on reddish rocky terrain. Rear right side view of Dalinar figure in Shardplate. Oathbringer spans the length of Dalinar’s back from helm to calf, and is a lighter silver color than his Shardplate. Side left view of Dalinar Kholin posed in a forward lunging position, left leg forward and arms sweeping Oathbringer back for an overhead swing. The wavy edges and slight hooked tip are easily visible against the dark background. Oathbringer is a silvery metallic while the armor is a darker slate grey. It looks like the artist has bent Oathbringer at some point, so it isn’t perfectly straight in line with its hilt. That artist hopes no one else notices this and promises to fix it. Front and slightly left view of Dalinar miniature. The sword Oathbringer is no longer visible, being fully hidden behind Dalinar in mid-swing. The armor chest piece is heavily cracked and dinged on the left side. The helmet has ridges rising along the center and both sides, with the side ridges flaring up and out slightly before curving back down. The terrain is made of boulders and slabs of rock covered in areas by a lighter tan-colored layer of crem.
