It's Rhaenyra's sons! From left to rigth, Lucerys, Aegon, Joff, Viserys and Jace. Despite not having much lore on the three eldest boys, I find them fasinating. and of course, hella tragic. My favorite is Jace. You know, the one who befriended the Starks, the one that married the Stark bastard girl, Sara Snow, possibly having a child with her, and the one with the dragon (Arrax) that maybe lied eggs in Winterfell. So much mistery around him. Plus, tragic death in water, mirroring Rhaegar. Fasinating!
As you probabily know, I support the idea of Alyssa Targaryen (Rhaenyra's gramndma) being the child of Queen Alyssane with Alaric Stark. So, of course I went out of my way to give the strong Velaryon
boys Alyssa's eyebrows, wich are the eyebrows I commonly do for Starks. I went all in for their ayes, bc who says brown eyes cant look as impresive as violet ones? Even if they dont have the classic Targ look, they still can have beauty. I also give them another of my headcanon hereditary creations: the mole under the eye. You will notice I often draw Targs with it. My Aegon I, Rhaena, Rhaenyra and Daenerys have it, among others. You know who wont have it? The greens. Yes, it can also a mark of my favor, hehe.
I also wanted to give each of the five boys them their own style, while including some elements to binding all togheter, like little braids, jewerly and scales.
Do you wanna know one of my favorite details in this, besides the eyebrow and mole thing? Viserys has a missing baby tooth! Look at it! Cute? I hope so!
Let's talk backgrounds. Man, are those hard! This one is picturing some terrace in Dragonstone. There is this small dragon statue behind them, see? I'm still not entirely sure about how to capture the idea of the fused stone Dragonstone is made of. I tried some sort of reflective, shinny black-red thing. But also didnt wanted it to look overly gloomy...
Anyway, what do you think? Who is your favorite? Or are you a green?
I have some other WIPs to show you later. More Jace, you know...
