Fanart Fridays!

[Hazel]

So, here is where you give me suggestions for what you want me to draw each Friday of the read. Other artists out there, feel free to take on any of the suggestions you see. I will be picking which every suggestions interest me most but everyone is welcome to do their own thing. I would love to see some fan art from you :)

You can post directly into the board, or you can add links to your blogs/deviantart page or whatever.

Another fun thing--My Pintrest board for Blood Ties: https://www.pinterest.com/artfulscrib...

Here is an Eamon for the first Fanart Friday! I'm working on a Killian too, and I may get him up a little later this weekend.

[Abigail H.]

I like him! :-)

[Hazel]

Thanks :)

[Merenwen]

Awesome. :D

Suggestion:
A mini-scene with Riordan knitting and Keevan performing his antics. <3

[Deborah]

Coolness! :D I love his curls. ^_^

I found myself looking for a "like" for this comment. XD YES.

[Hazel]

Glad you like it, guys ^_^

@Merenwen: I will work on that one for next week!

[Joseph]

A fine drawing. I'm afraid when I think of Eamon, I always visualize him as some human (with hair) in leather armor, so it's nice to have a reminder as to what he actually looks like. :D Maybe hereafter I shall be able mentally portray him in a better fashion.

I'm really looking forward to this. :)

(@Deborah, I also searched vainly for a like button. :D)

[Hazel]

Haha, that can happen ;)

[Abigail H.]

Fanart of Eamon, based on Hazel's drawing above.

[Abigail H.]

My little sister, whose memory is apparently better than mine, has just reminded me that he is supposed to have black eyes. I should have asked her before I colored!

[Hazel]

I love him! Haha, yes, he does have black eyes, but that's okay ;)

[Abigail H.]

Thank you :-)

[Hazel]

Time for another Fanart Friday! Here is the request I got this week from Merenwen for Keevan and Riordan. And another bonus pic of the scene which I had drawn a long time ago :)

[Hazel]

Also here is a sketch dump of various sketches I have done for the series:

[Hazel]

Again, if you want to join in on Fanart Friday artists of any kind (it doesn't have to be actual art, it can be any creative media ;) feel free!
Start thinking of what you might like to see next Friday!

[Abigail H.]

So many sketches! :D I really like the one with Keevan upside down :P

[Hazel]

Haha, thanks ;)

[Merenwen]

These are so neat!! :D
My favorite is also the one with Killian doing a handstand on the couch. :P

I'm going camping for a week (I'll be able to keep up with the read-along cuz I got a print copy! And I have convinced my brother to start reading it!), and am planning on doing some fan-art facial sketches of the Company. :D

Awesome! I hope you have a fun camping trip :) I think the last section of the book I'll extend to the end of the month, so there will be plenty of time.

[Elizabeth]

I really like the Eamon fan arts! And Keevan upside down. :D

[Hazel]

Glad you liked them :)

By the way, I'm thinking of doing some Goblin sketches this week!

[Hazel]

Here's the art of the week! Some sketches of King Lorcan

:O WHY DOES HE HAVE TO BE SO DARN GOOD LOOKING. Ahem. Awesome sketch, Hazel!! :D

I have an idea for a fan-art thing but I never art, so I don't know how it would turn out. o.o Might try my hand at it though if I find time this week...

[Abigail H.]

These sketches remind me of a sinister 18th century aristocrat.

:O YES!

[Claire]

Ooh! Love the one in the chair!

[Hazel]

@Deborah: Haha, well, secret, I did fashion him after Benedict Cumberbatch after seeing him as Khan. (because he plays a totally awesome baddie) And I would love to see anything you come up with if you get around to it.

@Abigail: he does kind of look like that. Their fashion is based on a cross between that time period and punk rock :P

@Claire: Thanks :)

[Hazel]

Okay guys, last official Fanart Friday for the Blood Ties readalong :)
I wasn't able to get a lot of time, but I did get a sketch of Gorlan and Jarlath together because drawing goblins is fun :) Hope you like!

[Abigail H.]

You did a good job of showing their family resemblance. They look like brothers, and they look like they could be Lorcan's cousins.

[Hazel]

Thanks :)

[Deborah]

Aaahh, love it!! :D And I agree with Abigail. ^_^

This week's Fanart Friday to start off the Earthly King readalong, I thought I would do a wee sketch of Bree.

[Abigail H.]

She's cute!

[Deborah]

Aaahh, awesome! Love it! :D ...Eamon would say you left out the most important part: the freckles. XD

[Claire]

Ahh! She's so cute! :D

[Hazel]

Thanks! (And she did have freckles, it's just the quality of the picture is terrible because I was too lazy to scan it in and just took a picture of it instead.)

[Deborah]

That's actually what I figured but I had to say something about freckles because Eamon! XD <3 Anyways, love iiiit! :D

[Hazel]

It is very important ;)

[Abigail H.]

Bree--I digitally painted up a sketch of her, that I'd sketched before I saw Hazel's portrait of her. So not quite accurate :)

Aww, I like her :) I remember the sketch you send me a while ago. I always enjoy seeing how other people view the characters.

Thank you, I'm glad you like my rendition! :-)

[Deborah]

Eep! Love your drawing, Abigail! :D

[Hazel]

Any suggestions for this week's art?

[Hazel]

This week I drew Queen Eolande (view spoiler)[ Princess Sybil (hide spoiler)]

[Abigail H.]

Dramatic!

[Deborah]

WHOA! :O

[Hazel]

haha, glad you like it. She didn't turn out exactly the way I wanted her to, but I guess she's okay.
