#no reference
As some of you perhaps understood from my Instagram story, I just finished “Son of the Shadows” by Juliet Marillier, second book in the Sevenwaters series. It grabbed my heart even harder than the first one, and I knew I had to draw fanart STRAIGHT AWAY, so here’s the first official wip of the first official drawing, because the first sketched I made were hardly worth posting here. Anywho, I have no idea how to draw tattoos but I did have a lot of fun designing his, and it turned out not quite as bad as I had thought!
And I can’t freaking wait to draw more on this and all the other drawings I have brewing in my mind! ✨
(And I’m not little proud to say I drew both their faces with no reference what so ever and they are damned close to how I imagine them in the book!)

Today’s portrait sketch is inspired by Brad Pitt’s Achilles in Troy, because I watched the film this evening and can’t stop loving his performance in it. He and Briseis is without a doubt the most heart wrenching film couple I have ever seen I think (except for obviously Aragorn and Arwen ).
I therefore did this portrait as my own version of Achilles, tho obviously inspired by Brad Pitt (hair and armour is referenced but nothing else) and I am in love. I may actually have cracked the code on how to draw faces (the wips show how I structure now), and I cannot wait to try to draw some other men I love using this technique!
Let me know what you think!
