For WIP Wednesday I thought it would be interesting to post a piece I'm taking a second pass at! This is based on Leyendecker's Fall Foxhunting. The left is my first attempt from about a year ago that I abandoned halfway through, and the right is my current reworking of it, hopefully to be finished by the weekend :)

More yapping under the cut 🍂

I started the original after reading the first half of TVL and I made a bunch of conscious artistic choices that I ended up regretting. Since the new season started and we're getting more human Lestat, I was inspired to take another crack at it with a reworked sketch and a larger canvas. I adjusted the dog and horse breeds to be more accurate (previously beaucerons and a percheron, changed to mastiffs and a thoroughbred). The dappling on the original horse was fun and interesting to do, but I'm really happy with how coppery and textured the new horse is coming out.

I think my grasp on Sam Reid's face has definitely improved! Love the guy but I find him a lot harder to draw than Jacob Anderson. I'm still not fully sold on the clothing though. The most recent episode put him in a brown coat but that would make everything in the painting brown. I like the red coat as a sort of foreshadowing to the wolfkiller cloak, but I'm concerned it looks a little to "regency sport hunter" and not "practical game hunter". I'm open to suggestions in the comments!

If you actually opened this and read my rambling mwah I love you <3

"I feel very proud to be a black Creole vampire, in the show. I mean, I hope that all it does is opens the gates for more. Let's tell more stories. Let's be monsters! And enjoy it! Yeah, let's be problematic. Give us the space to be a problem." - Jacob Anderson

The best thing they could've done after releasing that picture of Louis that says "the ex" is then release a picture of Armand that says "the ex" and a picture of Nicki that says "the ex" and a picture of Gabrielle that says "the ex" and
