Joffrey Baratheon finished, Sansa Stark started

Well, I mostly have Joffrey finished, I just need to sort out the length on his arms and add some hands:
And I have started Sansa, but I've only got the body shape down so far, which isn't interesting enough to post on here.

It's a long weekend here in the UK this weekend due to it being Easter, but I've been on holiday since Thursday (car had its MOT... and failed. It's OK, I got it fixed though). I was supposed to spend a big chunk of this weekend drawing, and instead I spent Thursday drawing for about an hour, then went out Thursday night in Nottingham (and drove!!). Friday I went for an 11 mile bike ride, interspersed with a couple of pubs and a trip to the local wildlife sanctuary:


What duck?

Peekaboo!
Saturday I went to the pub for the day (surprise surprise) and today I went to watch the new Batman vs Superman film. My verdict? It was OK. Better than what people are giving it credit, but it wasn't amazing. It didn't help I spent the first 2/3 of the film confused! I think I should've watched the last Superman film beforehand. Tomorrow is due to be bad weather, so I'll stop in, and *should* get some more drawing done. I'm about halfway there now with the line drawings, and I've sped up considerably. My longest character, Daenerys, took me 3 hours for the line drawing (she was the first character I drew), Joffrey took 1.25 hours. The quickest was Catelyn Stark at 1 hour.

I've spotted a good Kickstarter campaign that I'd love to back, but I'm skint at the moment, and to be honest I can do the same thing by scanning my art at work. You can find what I'm talking about here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/642311833/rocketbook-wave-cloud-connected-microwavable-noteb?ref=users

Anyway, that's enough of my waffling for one week. No plans mid-week next week, but on Saturday I'm going to see Muse, and I'm so friggin' excited!

So before I go, here's my Pinterest of the Week: https://uk.pinterest.com/pin/314548355205477344/ I love the detail on this, how they've done the water droplets first before the rest, and it gives me hope that I'll be able to produce something this good with coloured pencils one day
