Game of Thrones characters coming along nicely

I think I've found my flow again for drawing, and I think it's because I had 5 days off last week (including the weekend), it was really nice to have some time off work and recharge my batteries. I've managed to nearly finish 2 out of 4 drawings, the reason Bran, Rickon and Arya Stark aren't finished is because I need to practice my hands, so I need my other half to be my hand model:

Sansa Stark

Catelyn Stark, added in with Ned who was already finished

Bran & Rickon Stark

Arya Stark

I'm just about to start work on Robb Stark and John Snow. Once they're done I have Viserys Targaryen, Jaime and Tyrion Lannister, and Tommen and Mrycella Baratheon left, then I can start to colour these in! I don't have any plans for the next 7 weeks now, so there's no excuse for me to not finish these (although I find plenty of reasons to procrastinate, ha!).

In other news, we went to see Muse last night in Birmingham, and had a blast! I took a few photo's, but concert photo's never turn out well because of the low lighting:

Drones

There are hands on the screens, and it's like the hands were controlling the band members like puppets on string

The Globalist. Not my favourite song, but they played it in full

All-in-all I've had a productive weekend, considering I didn't do an awful lot yesterday except the concert and driving. No plans for this week, I'm counting down to my holiday now which is in 7 weeks' time.

So, before I go, I'll leave you with my Pinterest of the week, it's not art-related, but I made this on Monday, and it was delicious! So easy too: https://uk.pinterest.com/pin/314548355205608764/

Ned stark finished

I've got round to finishing Ned Stark:

I'm not sure who to work on next, my plan was to have Ned & Catelyn stood together, so I'll need to add her into this drawing.

From my local library I borrowed a book: Reading through the Starting a Business in 7 Simple Steps. It seems OK, but as I just want to be a freelance artist much of it doesn't apply to me (such as employing people, I'll be on my own!). I think I have the basics understood now. I'd like to get a few paintings/drawings in my local art gallery, but I can't paint, and I'm not sure my drawings are good enough (I'm thinking of things like the Portrait of a Boy (http://kimshibbybob.blogspot.co.uk/2015/04/portrait-of-boy-finished.html), and the cat (http://kimshibbybob.blogspot.co.uk/2016/01/the-cat-is-done-evil-will-not-triumph.html))

Aside from that, I don't have much to report on. As I spent so much last weekend (and went clothes shopping yesterday) I'm pretty skint. I'm only at work Monday - Wednesday this week, due to my car going for an MOT on Thursday, and then we have a long weekend as it's Easter. If the weather is good I want to go to the seaside, or go for a bike ride, if it's rubbish I'll hammer some more of these Game of Thrones drawings. I was hoping to have these finished for when season 6 starts, but as that's in a month, and I've only done 6 line drawings so far I'm gonna be pretty stretched to achieve that. I'm going to colour these in with coloured pencils, and I want to experiment with recording myself. I need to get some of these line drawings onto paper to do this though.

Well, that's enough rambling for one week, I'll leave you with my Pinterest of the Week, and it's one my well-known loves :) : https://uk.pinterest.com/pin/314548355205268962/
