Game of Thrones Discussion Thread (Books and Show)

The newer face certainly makes her look a little more badass and less childish. Like, I know she IS a child, technically, but you no what I mean.

I like Viserired. :P
 
Yeah, is the problem of change direction in middle work :D
At first when i begin color it physically was more the very pale first daenerys we seen, so the insecure expression was kinda fitting
But after i considered that with dragons there the very first D make no sense, so i added some tan on her skin but the expression was become kinda wrong, i had to harden it a lil bit :D

edit: above i edited again the img, little things changed here and there
 
ooo.. art work. Lovely. lovely bits!

might I critique?

DO LETS!

hmm.. I feel the composition is very centered and even flow. I would like to see a break in the symmetry and a stronger focal point in Dae. As it is, my eyes kinda just drift everywhere on the page and doesn't seem to last or stick in any one spot. Having certain eye paths that'll lead to the focal point would be interesting.

I find the coloring interesting. The way you used the digital brushes to create your tones shows you have a general concept of lighting as it hits a subject. That said, multiple subjects can be a different matter. The characters don't feel like they're occupying the same space. The drawing suggests so, but the way the lighting is interacting with them makes them all feel separated. Lighting can enhance or take away from an image but the lighting here takes away from the depth of all 4 characters. If all the characters were drawn separately that lighting would be okay, but since they're all together, the way the light lands, bounces, and all that jazz is entirely different.

my main critique is that I suggest for the next piece you use a reference. That may sound like cheating but it's not. How something looks in your head, doesn't always match with reality or even belief. So having a reference always helps, mainly because it'll help with the details.

Like the way fabric hangs on skin. Body proportions and anatomy. Other details to create a sense of depth.

I also recommend doing some more life drawing to understand more of the human figure.

as for the dragons, I feel you could play with them a lot more. I feel there's more detail needed there, as it is, they feel more like gargoyles than dragons. The way you have the wings set up, study similar winged beasts to see how their wings fold, spread, etc. Also check out other artists drawings to see how they tackled their dragons when approached by similar issues to yours.

All that said, fun stuff! keep up the art! love love love it!

also.. Dae looks bored to me. it's a pretty bland facial expression, doesn't show her ambitions, doesn't show her personality. just a plain straight face like she's bored.
 
I'm kinda on hurry right now, but i've login to thanks for the big feedback
Some things are spot on(specially dragons), and i will probably work on it on my 9875 run at fix it (lol i've AGAIN worked on Eddard yesterday, she's going to get multiple new versions too), some others are kinda wanted in the way they are (composition, face expression)
Thanks again
