A Daenerys sketch and the old rule that a 5 minutes sketch ends up looking better than something you’ve been working on for 5 hours.
I was watching gods of egypt (where the 2 main *egyptian* gods are played by white people :/) and I started doing a egyptian Daenerys so if anything on her resemble the goddess Hathor it’s because it is pretty much taken from there, also this is the first time that I made a semi decent chair. Given how much I do sketches of Dany is actually surprising that I don’t post content about her more often.
Ok, so i increased the saturation and honestly is kinda better than it was(I’m a sucker for intense bright colors) so I thought I should post it.
Let’s assume that one day Winter will arrive in the ASOIAF Westeros and Dany will have to go North to assist with The Long Night (before or after taking care of Cersei/the scramble for the Iron Throne idk).
I had a lot of fun designing a Winter outfit for Dany. Incorporating furs, recognizable jewelry, a combination of the blinding whites and deep Targaryen red/purples. Especially because I knew I could layer up sooooo much fabric and fur XD. She must be so cold in this new extreme-opposite climate.

AU Rhaenys and Daenerys! Talking about who they get to dance to with at the Tourney of Winterfell in honor of Jon’s legitimization. They have their eyes already set on Jon and Robb, they just have to decide who gets who.
Wanted to spend more time designing the outfits but this was supposed to be quick! Still, I ended up with the idea of contrast between them between gold and silver, sun and moon. While Daenerys dresses in more Targaryen colors of dark wines and blacks with softer touches of pink, Rhaenys favors Dornish colors and gold and polished leather accents, but using more Targaryen styles. TBH I now just wanna do a whole series out outfits for them cause fashion.
Of course since the books haven’t been completed yet Just how Dany get’s to the sticky note that D&D based season 8 on remains a mystery. But let’s have some fun and imagine for a moment that she does become Queen of the Seven Kingdoms. If you haven’t picked up on it yet I decided really early on to base Targaryen fashion very loosely of that of Imperial Russia (Anastasia is always on my mind and if you look at the first Dany all the way back in… November? September? There’s some Anastasia sleeves & crown going on)
So after she leaves her conquest of Slaver’s Bay/The Great Grass Sea she starts to use Targaryen fashion to reassert her claim for the Iron Throne. She has been wearing Kokoshnik-inspired crowns/tiara’s from the beginning, and hopefully the pattern of trailing sleeves and high decorative collars creates a nice through line as she redefines her identity as the Targaryen Heir.
