A strange thought just crossed my mind / Paid the rains back in kind / 'Twas the thought of sweet May coming on / The days are running so slow / My heart is aching to go...
[guinevere and her father leodegraunce for @mortiscausa’s march to camelot, for the prompt ‘heir’]
#em draws stuff#march to camelot#arthuriana#guinevere#leodegraunce#leodegrance#this one was a JOURNEY#the caption lyrics and a lot of the vibe I wanted out of this piece are from incredible string band's 'good as gone'#tho I've been listening to the wakefire cover for most of the drawing process and I highly suggest you do so as well#I wanted something bright and springy and full of potentiality since this is supposed to be at arthur and guinevere's wedding#but in the end as I worked with the palette it just kept getting cold. which is fair enough bc there is. so much snow right now.#so in the end there's less this sense of youth and life that I was going for and more a just-before-the-end-of-winter#which is fair enough for a wedding where everyone down to the father of the bride has brought a sword!#unrelated to that I'm once again doing my small fooleries as I try to practice more weathered faces - I think leodegraunce was once well#cast with daragh o'malley (in the starz camelot which. I have not seen) but that I could have styled him so much better#so here is me enjoying the fantasy of getting to design for an older mr o'malley in a production that was invested in him looking regal#so ends. cooking up something exciting for the next prompt but unsure if I'm prepared to go through with it.
