A Clash of Kings – Chapter 34 – Jon

Sam and Jon stand at the edge of the ring fort looking at the view of the Milkwater and the Frostfangs. The hardest part about drawing all of the Land Beyond The Wall scenes is my preconceptions from the show. The barren Icelandic location shots dominate my memory. This makes it hard to think of anything else when you sit down and read the scene. In the books, it’s forests all the way up to the Frostfangs. I have to remind myself of this every time.
