Acrylic painting of the Shrike, a spiked creature standing with an evil expression and holding a baby in its blade-like hands. The image is mostly black and white with small touches of red.

Another interpretation of the famous Shrike from the Hyperion Cantos by Dan Simmons. This time in acrylic.

Work-in-progress sketch of the Shrike from Dan Simmons’ Hyperion Cantos. A tall, spiked, metallic creature covered in blades and thorns.

I’ve been working on this drawing of the Shrike from the Hyperion Cantos by Dan Simmons, one of my favorite sci-fi series. Still a WIP, just a sketch for now.
I recently heard that Dan Simmons passed away. I was very sorry to hear it...

Third copy of this. Sometimes you just need the familiar #DanSimmons #Hyperion #HyperionCantos #TheShrike

Just finished the first volume of #Mistborn. Next book has 14 people ahead of me.

First volume of the #DarkTower series is in transit.

Second volume of #StormlightArchives has 2 people ahead of me.

First volume of the #HyperionCantos has one person.

Wish me luck in juggling these. 😅

For years, I've had this idea in my head of a movie poster for a movie based on the book Hyperion showcasing the pilgrims. Finally got around to sketch it. Created by me in the Penup app on a Samsung Galaxy phone. #bookart #hyperioncantos #sci-fi #inktober

the thorn in His side. #hyperioncantos

Starting Endymion by Dan Simmons. I really enjoyed the first two books of the #HyperionCantos but I have been warned the second two books are a bit more divisive.

Is it weird that I’m hoping my Beta Readers 💩 on the excerpt from my novel?

I’m quite a meticulous writer so the scrutiny is a bit of a kink atp.

Why do I have 2 copies of Endymion, 2 Rise of Endymion, 1 Fall of Hyperion but no copies of Hyperion? Can anyone relate to this nonsense? Love The Shrike tho!

A roughly colored upper-body sketch of the Shrike from the Hyperion Cantos: four arms, a skeletal face, spikes jutting from the chest and forhead.

A very rough upper-body sketch of the Shrike from the Hyperion Cantos in strong contrast, glaring down at the viewer, its head spikes a crown. In the background, men impaled on the Tree of Pain.

Doodlings of the Shrike, also known as the Lord of Pain, Avatar, Angel of Final Atonement, Angel of Retribution or Angel of Retribution from Beyond Time from the #HyperionCantos .

If you like sci-fi, you owe it to yourself to read these books.

(Shame about the author, but what can you do)

Recently started reading Hyperion, and I gotta say I'm hooked! Had to draw the big boi obviously
