She looks like She Ra Princess of Power to me. Was kind of going for a semi-Roman thing.
This texture is awesome, thank you ~galaxiesanddust! Totally made the piece. [link]

marquess of pembroke
For the record, Anne Boleyn did NOT have blue eyes. They were dark brown, often described as “black”. But, the painting didn’t pop the same way with brown eyes, sorry.
dragon slayer
She is a young dragon slayer with a taste for outfits that are perhaps a bit too theatrical for her profession. BUT, that is why we like fantasy, no?
Happy with how this turned out! I could tweak it forever, though.

“I could keep you safe,” he rasped. “They’re all afraid of me. No one would hurt you again, or I’d kill them.” He yanked her closer, and for a moment she thought he meant to kiss her. He was too strong to fight. She closed her eyes, wanting it to be over, but nothing happened. “Still can’t bear to look, can you?” she heard him say. He gave her arm a hard wrench, pulling her around and shoving her down onto the bed. “I’ll have that song. Florian and Jonquil, you said.” His dagger was out, poised at her throat. “Sing, little bird. Sing for your little life.”
-A Clash of Kings, George R.R. Martin
You know you have a problem when you randomly find a picture of Lana Del Rey on someone’s blog, who’s chiding her for the themes in her music video seeming to portray a complacency toward domestic violence, and you instantly think, “oooh goody…wouldn’t this be a great reference photo for some SanSan?!”
Characters belong to George R.R. Martin and HBO’s A Game of Thrones. One of my favorite textures right now I must credit to ~Insan-Stock [link]
mermaids
Who doesn’t love mermaids?
I used a mashup of the following textures. Thanks to these artists for the use of them!

I’ve been working on a forever-project (alright, it’s for October) and I needed a break! Quick bitch, please!Sansa sketch and an older traditional drawing recently colored in Photoshop.
assassina
She might be a vampire…she might be choppin’ off people’s heads. It’s either that or her own.
This was a pencil sketch I did 100 years ago that I colored a few months back, wasn’t satisfied and shelved for a while. I started working on it again for some warm ups, and suddenly it started working. Yay.
Apologies for the posting hiatus…I’ve been finishing up a class, but should have some stuff relating to that up soon enough.
alas my love…
I was looking at tattoo art today and then made this instead of doing homework. :)
All Photoshop…I love drawing with ballpoint pens and was going for that.
Tudors garden scene
Here’s more of what I’ve been working on in Tim McBurnie’s class Drawing for Comics. Still finishing up the color a bit…
This is a concept from my Tudors graphic novel idea, The Field. Anne has just spied her family at the English camp chatting happily and is about to join them after not having seen them in many years (well, except Mary…it’s only been about a year there). Mary is with her new husband, William, George Boleyn and Lady Elizabeth. Anne hasn’t developed her cynical smirk quite yet.
All Photoshop, including drawing.
