Up Next: Volantis

The connection to a major river, warm weather, wealth, etc lead me right to India for the starting inspiration. It's not one to one but hopefully some of the reference carries through. Naturally we also had to have the canonical face tattoos.

(Wow the favouritism is reallllly obvious like this)

A Dothraki pair

Not necessarily a couple-couple but could be. They are similar in age and in decoration.

She is wearing almost like the 'winter' version of Dothraki clothing. Still a riding outfit but with an under-long sleeve/jacket. In a warmer time of year she too would be shirtless underneath her vest.

(If you see this without the other Dothraki images know that this is a companion-post , not the whole picture. ;D)

Essos Infographic: Dothraki

"The Dothraki people are a culture of nomadic warriors in Essos who range across the vast grasslands of the Dothraki seain hordes known as khalasars. People of the Seven Kingdoms and the Free Citiesalso refer to the Dothraki as horselords.

Dothraki typically have copper-toned skin, black hair, and black, almond-shaped eyes.Dothraki men wear their hair in long braids, oiled or greased with fat from the rendering pits.Dothraki warriors carry small bells in their braids, which ring softly when they move. They are only allowed to braid their hair after they have won a victory. A bell is added to their braid after each victory; The braid is only cut when a Dothraki warrior is defeated in battle, an act through which he lets the world know his shame. Only few men die with their braids never having been cut off.Men further might wear metal rings bound in their mustachios.

Both men and women might wear painted leather vests over bare chests and horsehair leggings cinched by bronzemedallion belts, although wealthier Dothraki might also have silver and golden medallions on their belts. Others might wear sandsilk trousers. For footwear Dothraki wear leather boots, leather sandals which lace up to the knee, or sandals of woven grass." - A Wiki of Ice and Fire (https://awoiaf.westeros.org/index.php/Dothraki)

Up Next: Dothraki

Like all of these fashion illustrations I started with the book description of things and tried to work out real-world parallels that either were the inspiration or could be interesting inspiration.

For the most part I was inspired by Mongolian clothing for the Dothraki. The deel, the horse-hoof cuffs, wrestling pants, the beaded headband, etc.

While coming up with variation in the four example heads I decided to add a younger member of the Dosh Khaleen. I thought it would be really interesting to have them wear a horse-head themed headdress.

(Off topic but has anyone ever see 'Ever After'? The nice step-sister's masquerade outfit? Neigh. If you know you laughed, if you don't know, don't worry about it)

Let's talk about the PLAN

Here's the general outline of what I have planned colouring book by colouring book for the rest of this year/next year.

They will maybe look like this? Right up until Gentlefolk... that cover & title is still hotly debated around here. We'll see what happens as we get closer. Lots to do before then

so.... the doll series I've been drawing is a lot of fun but I've come to a crossroads. There is a pretty clear divide happening within it however between the strictly historical and the fantastical historical.

so... it's time for a POLL !!!!

The friend I would usually bounce business art ideas with is dealing with irl life crisis (Wildfire evacuation type things in North America) so I'm making the questionable decision to ask y'all instead.

Some of the doll-inspired as "fantasy" because they have their hair out. Others have... fin-ears and snake hair. So the question becomes...

Also I always love reading comments with more thoughts! I appreciate the feedback <3

A young man and woman from Norvos.

Her status is higher than his, the silver of her jewelry and clothing should put her in a slightly higher 'tax bracket' if you will. He's a little more of the average citizen, or has a less distinguished/newer household. Also since he does not have a mustachio he is a very young man/teenager.

(If you see this without the other Norvos images know that this is a companion-post , not the whole picture. ;D)
