MY COTILLION ARTWORK WIP.
Hi there! I am BRAND new to the Malazan Empire, and am about half way through Gardens of the Moon. My favourite character so far, is definitely Cotillion, and as I looked up art online, I found it did not match the image that I had in my head for the character. And so, I've decided to manifest my interpretation on paper.
I've been recieving insights on reddit in these two posts:
Reddit Post 1
Reddit Post 2 after taking suggestions
And it's been really helpful! I've gotten to a point where I believe he is at the age he would be in the book. But I feel like I am not quite done yet, so as I discovered this forum, I thought it would be a great place to garner even more understanding of the Cotillion character. If you can illuminate any characteristics that may be missing from my artwork's tentative final sketch, that would be greatly appreciated.
Any passages in the book that pertain to his appearance would be helpful, but be mindful that I am only halfway through GotM, so only appearance spoilers please! Nothing pertaining to his journey/story, etc.
Any suggestions or theories as to what you believe him to look like would help me shape my final work as well. Thanks in advance, guys!
