Game Of Thrones – Practice Dummy

Game Of Thrones – Practice Dummy

Finally got back to working on my series of Game of Thrones pen and ink sketches. I’m still getting my pace back after a couple of months.

So let’s start with a picture of Sandor Clegane practicing his tilting on a practice dummy in a manner that may or may not be a way of intimidating the Starks.

The biggest challenge I had with this piece (beyond my inability to draw horses) was figuring out Sandor’s helmet. I find the one from the show too bulky and clunky to be practical and I couldn’t find any real animal shaped helmets from the period. I ended up trying to wing it as best I could, making it more hound like rather the snarling wolf from the show.

Game of Thrones is the Property of George R. R. Martin.
