Artist's Comments

'The Name of the Wind' ís a greeaaaat book by Patrick Rothfuss, please read it if you like fantasy!

I've wanted to draw fanart for it since reading it the first time ... took me a long time to actually do it.
Sadly, I'm ver bad at drawing people just from written (not very detailed) descriptions. It all feels very unfinished.
To me this pic looks like a mindmap now *laughs*. Too much and at the same timne not enough.
But I just had to finish it quickly at one point, no time for details, or I would have never finished it.
It's A3 ... and for me that is way too big. A4 is a nice size. How did I ever finish so many A3 pictures in school?!
A second copic in skincolours died on me ... will buy a refiller next month, when I have money again.

So, I'm not happy with the pic, but veeery proud because I actually finished it!

... now I'm going to draw stuff for my primary fandom.

[copics & polychromos & white paint]

*gg* s is das erste mal seit 2006 dass ich A3 angerührt hab! (seit dem Abi halt)
ich denk viel eher es liegt daran, dass ich meist zu faul bin Copic Papier rauszusuchen und Druckerpapier die Farbe ja so extrem aufsaugt -.-

Uwaah, you read the Name of the Wind too! It's a brilliant book, one of the best new fantasy I've read... can't wait for the sequel this year ^___^

ajfhldg and your art is awesome!! I looove the way you depicted Kvothe (mmm red hair <3), and the bottles look very shiny. I also love the little details, like Abenthy's message in his book, and the writing on the paper, and just. EVERYTHING. :heart: :heart: :heart:
