Thank you!

Probably not! I would do more animated movie redesigns for special requests or for commissions but I don't think I'd go back and add more to a completed movie character unless I really wasn't happy with the art anymore.

Up Next: Myr

For me, Myr was all about the lace, and for outfits that have extravagant amounts of lace my mind went straight to the Spanish mantilla. Inspired by the 1600s and the huge lace cuffs and collars, paired with a lace veil pinned up dramatically over the hair.

This was also good for me because I could link it visually pretty directly with Braavos. This way they would "post-renaissance" fashion buddies, but with lighter colours, a Lot more lace, and smaller hats and feathers.

The test print of the next fantasy fashion colouring book came in and it looks goooooood!!

There’s a few little updates to make but this one came together really quickly! (Which also means ‘Across the Universe’ will be unpublished soon)

A pair from Pentos

(These two are unrelated, just near each other.) An older merchant man and a younger woman. I was thinking about wealthy merchant men and women who are favoured by them. A wife, a mistress. Those are the thoughts are in the direction I was thinking.

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

There's nothing to do but experiment and see what happens now! XD

That's very fair, it's still very early in the Essos series and with the feedback from the last few days I've made some adjustments. Both in my hopes for the series and in the posting schedule.

No, I'm sorry to have brought you guys down. I've been oversharing and you guys visit me to have fun, not hear about my anxieties about running a business. I was being impatient about getting feedback, when I really should have tempered my expectations for a slower-start into interest for the new series. Lurkers are great and I appreciate every like, no reblogs are obligatory.

I'm so glad you and your daughter are enjoying the colouring book. It means so much to me that you are enjoying it. <3

ASOIAF Essos Infographics: Pentos

"The Pentoshi descend from Andals, Valyrians, slaves, and ancient peoples. Like the Braavosi and Lyseni, Pentoshi are great lovers of song, and generous with those who please them. Some of their men dye, oil, and fork their beards.

Pentos was founded by merchants, traders, seafarers, and farmers from the Valyrian Freehold as a trading outpost." - A Wiki of Ice and Fire (https://awoiaf.westeros.org/index.php/Pentos)

Pentos

Pentos had me second guessing myself quite a bit. I wanted to connect it visually with Lys and feel like something a rich merchant city would invent while being distinct from the other places in Essos.

A wild goose chase later and I eventually settled on Minoan inspiration crossed with Eastern North African fashions. The clothing is light and flowing (my memories of Dany's first chapters), hairstyles are oiled and forked. There's some pearls and gold but not worn to the level or extravagance of other city-states/countries. The strands of pearls in the hair was pretty key to my desired direction.
