Description Well, I've probably said this multiple times before, but I've lost interest in Wings of Fire a while ago.  That means that I'm not going to finish the Lost Continent concept art series that I started a year ago - so I'm posting the WIP designs that I did for Cricket, Sundew, and the Temple of Clearsight just to get them out there.

This was probably the most interesting of the ones I ended up doing!  Designing a building is a lot different from drawing characters, but I ended up creating something that I would want to visit.  (It looks very relaxing!  if only it wasn't used for so creepy a purpose in the books.)  I did this for a commission to do a scene set in the Temple (which I haven't posted as the commissioner is doing the colouring for it, actually) and I wanted to make sure my design a) was something they liked and b) matched the description in the book.

So I sifted through the chapters set in this and grabbed all the relevant quotes - I might have missed something (or maybe something else was added in Hive Queen or Poison Jungle, which I haven't read) but I think I did a pretty decent job of matching it.  I also created a very rough 3d model of it for my own use, as I was struggling a little with the perspective - I lost that file, otherwise I'd share it.

Art by me
Wings of Fire belongs to scholastic and Tui T. Sutherland

OH GOD you reminded me about that commission you drew of the Temple of Clearsight like last year!! ARGH I'm actually really close to finishing it, just need to shade everything, I can't BELIEVE I forgot about that!! I'm SOOOO sorry hahahaha. Will definitely post that in the next 1-2 months XD 

I'm extremely impressed btw with all the research you did for that drawing! You clearly put a LOT of thought into the geometrics, very cool!

No worries!!  I'm really excited to see what you end up doing with it!

And thank you - it was a lot of fun to try to bring to life a piece of the setting rather than a character!  I definitely want to do more things like it in the future.
