I have an obsession with the compelling faces of Colin Morgan and Benedict Cumberbatch, as evident in my fanart. Pale cheekbones galore!

 

Well, my mum seems to fall asleep within the first half hour of any movie I recommend we watch together… Last was “The Fall” and then, just now, “What Dreams May Come”. Shouldn’t those be visually tantalizing enough? Ah, well… back to my laptop to paint some Sherlock (my default whenever I take a break from painting Merlin).

Can I just say how SUPER EXCITED I am that you're continuing the comic? Well... I'm SUPER EXCITED! <3

Well I guess I kept everyone in suspense for quite a few months, lol! I’m really glad - hope you enjoy the rest! ^^

Holy crap! I just realized that you're who did 'Arthur Arisen' and I don't think I ever told you how absolutely gorgeous it is. And if I've already told you, this masterpiece warrants me telling you again. :)

Well that’s much appreciated, thank you! ^^

HELP ME FANART

Can I use “fanart” as a verb? XD Okay, so, I have a growing list of Merlin-related fanart ideas… Which is ridiculous, because I have two older pieces I’ve put on hiatus, as well as a fan-comic I intend to progress more quickly… (I’m sooo sorry, second page will be up soon!)

Anyway! Dunno which one of these I should start on, so I thought it might be fun for my lovely followers to help me decide. You can share any thoughts, or just vote for whatever you hope to see from me soon. Comment or Ask away! (Would be very grateful for a reblog!)

Much thanks for everyone’s time! ^^

  A) Pict!Merlin and Roman!Arthur (So, skin painted blue, and centurion armour! Fun, fun, fun… I might have to watch The Eagle for some inspiration.)

  B) Merlin and Aithusa, post 5x13 (I’m thinking of situating this in the Victorian era… Might be angsty, them being the last of their kind and all that… Alone together.)

  C) Colin as a harpy (One of Ariel’s forms in The Tempest - a legitimate excuse to draw him with wings, huzzah! I’m definitely eager to incorporate his fantastic new hairstyle, yum…)

  D) Jester!Merlin (The dark, alluring sort… Ever since that juggling scene, I’ve been imagining an AU where Merlin meets Arthur while applying as court jester… His “tricks” would make him top candidate, eh?)

  E) Merlin, Morgana, and Mordred - dark magic alliance! (Merlin’s such a good boy… but they would look so sexy side by side, all pale skin and dark hair. I’m also fond of the fact that their names begin with the same letter - M for Magic!)

Well, do expect me to try and finish these all - unless I suddenly die, or decide to get a life…

THE ADVENTURES OF MERLIN: The Animated Series
1.01 The Dragon’s Call

because i’m desperate to relive merlin in any way possible, and if i spend the rest of my life drawing the entirety of seasons 1-5 it will never be over, right?? [inspired by cosmic-nerd-angel’s lovely sherlock series]

i just realized you started following me & wow?? hi!! i've seen your art on my dash a lot & wowow you're a cutie uvu

Aw, I don’t think anyone’s called me that before! XD Maybe because I never post pics of myself? lol Anyway, thanks so much! You have some delicious fanart, and I can’t wait for more! <3

Every time I think Colin Morgan can’t POSSIBLY get any more attractive, he goes and changes his hair. That bastard.

I think this may be grounds for a class-action lawsuit. I need compensation for emotional damages.

Gorgeous, scruffy sketches! I concur, that hair is heart attack inducing… Now, imagine how absolutely illegal he’ll look once he’s made up as Ariel. I mean, wings. WINGS.

ryuutsu asked
Oooh, hello fellow Merlin Art Fest artist! Ahh, I have NO idea how I'd never stumbled across your page before :O I am certain I've seen your art around, and it's glorious and amazing and ugh! <3 I adore your realism ones especially, since you never go too much into perfect likeness, but always seem to keep that 'painty' touch after which one can recognize your lovely style. Followed & watched, looking forward to see more of your stuf! ^^

Hi there, ryuutsu! Well, I welcome you, lol. Glad you’ve come upon my page, and thank you so much for the praise! It’s always interesting to me when someone says my style is recognizable. I usually feel like I ought to be more consistent, even among my stream of realistic pieces… So, yes, it’s nice to hear that thought from a fellow artist. Thank you again, dear!

unseenvisibility asked
Goodness, I just wanted to drop by and tell you that you have such lovely art! I'm really blown away by the talent you have--seriously, it's beautiful! I don't know how you do it, but really, it's gorgeous! <3

Thank you for leaving such a nice comment, my dear! ^^
