Excellent detail, and very characterful! Something about Rhaegel makes him come across a bit more hostile than I imagine him being. I understand that he was mad, but I also read that he was relatively meek as well. Perhaps his cameo was supposed to depict him as being scared/nervous? Either way, well drawn! Kudos!
Sadly we never see Daeron and Mariah in person in the novel but this picture is my head canon for them now. As other people said, your cartoon style is quite a unique take, that differs from the usual "pretty face" art.
I think all of your sketches are amazing. I was really impressed by the amount of detail and time you must have put into this. Also, I loved your portrayal of the Mistresses and how none of them were generic-looking in appearance; I really appreciated that. What was also intriguing to me is how you felt all this Mistresses needed to be beautiful, but in different ways - and I loved the open-mindedness of how they're drawn in a very realistic manner - strictly speaking, it seemed historically accurate, because back in the medieval period, I believe women were viewed as beautiful for many different reasons; I.e cheekbones, hands, jaw-line, hair and eyes - any one feature could have been honed in on and complimented.
In this I just love the diversity and similarity. However, I am more so astounded by how you drew Daenerys - as an innocent young girl, not full in bloom, with a slender and petite frame and delicate features, as described in the book. She must have been considered extremely beautiful back in the day; but it is her personality and timid mannerism that really struck me and how you didn't portray her as so many others artists have by basing her off of the actress from the show! <3
I hope to one day get around to sketching a few characters from GoT's myself
You're talking about the Daenerys on this pic or the Daenerys at the very end of the Tree ? For the one on the Tree, I did base her on Emilia Clarke, but yeah in her more "innocent" years. For the Daenerys on this picture well she was 15 or 16 when she got married in Dorne so yeah she's young and frail indeed, also her mother was known for her delicate health so it was a logical choice.
Daenerys married Prince Maron Martell of Dorne. His daughter Mariah had married Daeron II previously and these two marriages allowed Dorne to brought into the Seven Kingdoms of Westeros.
It was probably a good thing that brother and sister didn't marry this time. That custom should have been done away with a long time ago.

Something about Rhaegel makes him come across a bit more hostile than I imagine him being. I understand that he was mad, but I also read that he was relatively meek as well. Perhaps his cameo was supposed to depict him as being scared/nervous?
Either way, well drawn! Kudos!
As other people said, your cartoon style is quite a unique take, that differs from the usual "pretty face" art.

Have you drawn the Starks or any other houses?
Wait a minute Daeron II. wasn't married to his sister? What blasphemy!
Great picture, I hope you will create more.
