'tolerating' no. I am savouring these. I can't believe you drew all those flowers, they look amazing, the way the colours of the figures are is so wonderful...! if you post more oc stuff I'd definitely b interested!! no pressure obvs obvs
thank u!!! mwah mwah. unfortunately unless I make something I am particularly proud of I will probably keep my oc stuff off of tumblr i think. I like to be able to delete things when I suddenly decide I hate them <3 that has been my only gripe w tumblr I have to see art I don’t like anymore floating around forever. c’est la vie
I do have a tiny IG (same username) that I post my ocs and sketches on. I don’t promo it bc I mostly post there for friends and mutuals but that is the place to find my original stuff and glimpse into my wonderful world of deranged ocs ^-^
YOUR BRIENNE IS SO. HER. oh my god. your art is beautiful this is incredible. i always imagined her to look like that
thank u !! she is so fun to draw… girl of all time
I just found your art and I must tell you that I am totally in love, it is simply beautiful and precious. Your talent is incredible! ❤️❤️❤️
Could you comment on the clothes you use for jon? I never saw him represented that way and now I've fallen in love! Thanks for share. If you ever need to open commissions, I'll be happy to commission you!
hi ! tysm :) I am happy to share, but it should be noted that I am definitely not a fashion history expert. I tend to pull from fashions in the medieval era, typically in the kievan rus/old russia region. I also sometimes draw from Ivan Biliban and similar illustrators and the fashions they use to depict Russian fairy tales.
Jon’s coat is pretty simple. it’s nice enough to be fur lined, but not nice enough to have any sort of decorative elements. His hat (I think) is slightly post-medieval, but I liked the silhouette. it felt dramatic enough for a lord commander without being too extravagant, and thought it would definitely come in handy for keeping warm at the wall. Any time I’m illustrating someone in the North, I try to cram in a bunch of furs so they’re not freezing. Also his sheath is taken from Link’s sheath for the master sword bc I couldn’t find one for the back that I liked lol
At the end of the day it’s a fantasy, and if george is going to insist on everyone having long flowy hair, I’m not going to kill myself with making everything ELSE 100% accurate. I stay silly :3
I’ve only drawn cersei once when I had only just started fleshing out the general look I wanted to go for in my asoiaf art, so I wanted a chance to go back and update her. cersei’s design is tough because I always think of her hair, but it’s hard to make loose hair not look ahistorical and out of place grrr… This was the solution I came up with in the end. Not perfect, but I think she looks pretty anyways
Hello :) I really like your earthsea art, can I ask what inspired the fashion style of the characters? The clothes of earthsea aren’t generally described in detail, but I LOVE the way these look, they fit the feeling of the world perfectly.
hi!! tysm!! My Earthsea stuff so far has been mostly vibes based unfortunately, so i have no specific references to point you to… For Ged, I thought I it was important that his clothing be comfortable, practical, and humble but not ragged. he’s a powerful wizard, but he’s not showy, so his robes are colorful, but not opulent. I also considered what would look cool flowing in the wind while sailing on lookfar…
for Tenar, I started with the (obvious) base of the black robes. I figured they should be very basic because they’re mentioned making their own clothes. HOWEVER, Tenar is priestess of the Nameless One and thus higher status than her peers, so I wanted her to have more than just a plain robe. There are some small elements on the trim of her robe, and she has a decorative shawl which takes extra labor to make. even so, her belt is still only a rope. They are not living luxuriously.
I hope that makes sense!! I also was just influenced by what is fun for me to draw, and that happens to be loose and layered clothing ! :)
are you into any other fandoms, other than asoiaf? Adore your art, would love to see Tom Riddle in your style
you will never get harry potter fanart out of me. please read another book this isn’t your heart
do you sell prints, i would love to have your brienne on my wall 🥹
I do not :( but if you want you are welcome to make a print/take it to a print shop yourself!
Your asoiaf art is gorgeous! Finally someone who draws characters actually looking their age. Would you ever draw Shiera Seastar or Ashara Dayne? Basically, beautiful women😂😂😂 Do you have any future plans, who'd you like to draw specifically? Are you planning on doing most characters?
I don’t have any specific plans to draw most characters because I’m very fickle about having to really enjoy what I’m drawing to care enough to finish, but I do like a lot of characters so I’m sure more will appear over time… just not promising everyone! I’d like to revisit davos because he’s one of my favs. love that guy :) Perhaps joff tommen and myrcella. i think they could be fun. I should probably draw Catelyn eventually. But those are not really set plans, just some ideas floating around!
And I have a few characters in my inbox I’m saving for when I want to do another batch of sketch portraits, so i’ll add your requests to the list :) thank you!!
Your Jon and Dany have such similar expressions I love it so much. Like what if you were a teenager and suffering more that Jesus and you had various magic companions AND you were a part of a prophecy. Like what then. Anyways I love them and your art so much,, <3
I forget every drawing i’ve done as soon as I finish it so I had to go back and check but you’re right. thank you for this. extremely funny and my new fav analysis
your art is so gorgeous!!
thank u!!! :)
Your OCs look awesome! Do you have more of them?
I do but you have unlock my 3 heart event to get them
