Dalinar the Blackthorn

Before I say anything else, I'd like to first point out that if you are in to the epic fantasy genre and havent read any of Brandon Sandersons works...please do yourself a favor and pick up Mistborn or Warbreaker. I honestly can not sing enough praise for Sanderson, but there are other forums for that.

In terms of the piece, this is Dalinar in his Shardplate during the greatshell hunt. My mental image of the chasmfiend may be slightly different from others. Most would imagine it with a more lobster-like head, but I had always imagined them as a mix between a gigantic snapping turtle and a crab. The book only had the head description as: An arrowhead shape, with green eyes with a mouth full of mandibles.

I tried to keep Dalinar's armor true to the soldier image, as opposed to the beautifully decorated Shardplate that a normal Alethi General would wear. The Kholin blue cape flying behind. Cheers to the most badass Highprince on the Shattered Plains. I plan to do more Cosmere fan art soonish. I'm thinking either Kaladin, or Vasher with Nightblood. Be on the look out for those C:
