A final tribute to my favourite character from Game of Thrones.



I get such a sinister vibe from this, it’s awesome. :)

Do you ever draw any psychedelia?

Nah. Anime and attempts to draw portraits only.

I rework from existing photographs usually.

Staedtler pencils only (2B to 6B). You can get the super darks by pressing very hard with 4B (that's my favourite range) and higher.

I like to apply a simple monochrome colour filter to the drawings after using a simple phone app.

I have no idea how to use charcoals.

Inclined to say female, don't recognise those characters.

Have you ever tried to branch out from portraits?

Maybe some day

Basically I wanted to see what Anna from Frozen might look like with long hair instead of braided hair...

My friends from Taiwan found one of my precious long lost sketchbooks (it was sitting in the ROC this whole time!).

The drawings are not dated but I know the stuff in there is 2-3 years old.

Here's two of them:

I'm thinking maybe the Jaime Lannister (Whispering Woods) one could use a rework. With better eye proportions/spacing and even more contrast, it has potential...

I know that blue is the party color but after experimenting with filters I think the light red/maroon works better.

I went pretty crazy for the week of New Year.

I created a "psychedelic" variation for the anime girl drawing:

This is also my favourite character from The Boys.

The full power and might of the United States of America personified...



And then I picked one Walking Dead character.
