It’s really funny getting into Game of Thrones as Star Trek fan because you’ll read a phrase like targ madness and start worrying about what they’re doing to the boars

Woo first (successful) watercolor portrait

Sketch and a little back story under the cut

So I've got a project I want to do involving drawing aegon, so I wanted to practice with a couple of standard portraits because I realized though I've probably done at least in the low hundreds of portraits with charcoal, And a few with colored pencil or marker, but I've never actually painted one. Most of my art is still of people, but usually full bodies and very small so I don't really have to worry about facial details all that much. Anyway, I tried last night to paint aegon

It started off well, I liked the sketch a lot (even the nose looks good), the line art was fine (I even gave him an earring because I saw that Tom glynn carney has one irl) but oh god it went badly fast, the shadows were too dark, I brought in the green way too soon so the whole thing had a weird undertone, the expression looked weird, I was getting impatient so the colors were smudging together. I tried to fix it with a little bit of gouache and that made it SO MUCH WORSE

He looks insane hungover. His eyebags (which i considered key in capturing his 'ive been drunk for the last 23 hours' essense) we making him look 50 years older than he was supposed to. I just decided to scrap it, didn't even peel the tape off, didn't bother doing cross hatching on top and went to bed. I decided to give it another shot tonight and I'm very happy that I did because I LOVE how the second attempt came out. It was also honestly pretty fun to paint, kinda wanna do more, haven't done portraits in a while so it might be fun to get back into it. I'd love to do one in my more impressionist-y style or one fully with gouache or with weird or interesting color pallettes idk

Point is, glad I didn't give up because now I have one more painting that I like

Rhaenyra Targaryen: The Black Queen

[newearthresolutions]

if b’elanna has a soft toy targ that means either

a. klingon children have targ plushies

b. HUMAN children want and thus have targ plushies

c. one of b’elanna’s family members on either the human or klingon side custom made her a targ plushie

What if Saerys brought Rhaenyra the news her crown had been usurped instead of Rhaenys?

Many thanks to the Targaryens for curing my writer’s/art block🙏🏻 Timelapse below for those who like that sort of thing ⬇️
