“Lannisport was the end of our voyage,” Prince Oberyn went on, as Ser Arron Qorgyle helped him into a padded leather tunic and began lacing it up the back. “Were you aware thatour mothers knew each other of old?”
“They had been at court together as girls, I seem to recall. Companions to Princess Rhaella?”
Quick sketch I had on my mind all day, trying to get myself to draw more, and for some reason I am stuck on a Ladies Of A song Of Ice and Fire…also wanted to do a full body drawing for a change.
“The two women moved off. She concentrated on Joanna, who was still patting the reindeer. Suddenly there was a click, and Brienne turned her head. Jaime, face flushed and grin wide, moved his phone from his face. “No, no, Jaime.”
“What?”
“I am not going on your Instagram account.” The day he’d set it up, hoping to show off his daughter in her lion onesie, Brienne had made it clear she was to never be featured. She didn’t do social media for a reason. “Delete it. Now.”
Jaime shook his head. “It’s not for Instagram. It’s for me.” He showed her his phone. Joanna patting the reindeer, held in Brienne’s arms whilst she had a huge smile on her face, was his new lock screen. “Not every photo I take is for them.”
The Knights Before Christmas: Chapter 5: "Instagram Ready” by @ddagent
I just can’t stop drawing scenes from your stories!!!
Finally posting this bastard! So, for starters, I genuinely picture Charles Dance for this character. For one thing, he was pretty close to the correct age (64ish at the start of the series, to Tywin’s 58). For another, his eyes have something leonine to their angle imo. They styled him wrong, of course, and he was directed to be much calmer/more cool than I read Tywin as being, but yeah. I think if they shaved his head and gave him the appropriate muttonchops, he’d be perfect!
Speaking of muttonchops, what a challenge those were! I’m not happy with the end result, but it was a tremendous obstacle so I feel I’ve done about as well as I could to render his hair style.
Also, I’m throwing an extra goodie at you:
Joanna Lannister
Let’s talk more about Tywin’s hair! So, he shaved it off as soon as he started to go bald. Was it curly beforehand? Somehow, I don’t picture it. However, the twins most definitely have curly hair, and their kids inherit that. So I’ve concluded that Joanna was the one with curls. My portraits of their kids take more after her in general.
(Also, she’s significantly younger than Tywin as she is pictured around the time when she passed away, FYI!)
In those days, his father had been Aerys’s Hand, and many people said that Lord Tywin Lannister ruled the Seven Kingdoms, but Lady Joanna ruled Lord Tywin.
