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
In this light she could almost be a beauty, he thought. In this light she could almost be a knight.
'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 ^-^
Is your stuff digital or (irl?) oil, I can’t tell, love it though 🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵
it’s digital lol. I don’t have the space or budget required to do oil painting. I loved using them in school though
Throws up
AYEE LOOK AT THE MESS U MADE IN MY INBOX!
Danaë of Brno, a Přemysl Revenant and Fiendish knight of Clan Tzimisce. Shaagra's worst great-great-granddaughter. My Vampire: The Dark Ages -- Prague by Night OC, painted by the wonderful Liesl @shripscapi.
Your OCs look awesome! Do you have more of them?
I do but you have unlock my 3 heart event to get them
time for my regularly scheduled cersei redraw
this was mostly a chance for me to try and nail down the look I want to go for with womenswear in westeros. i’ve been wildly inconsistent up to this point because tbh I much prefer drawing menswear... but I want to draw a certain someone else in a dress so this was my practice >:)
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!!
