A Storm of Swords – The Painted Table

A Storm of Swords – The Painted Table

Davos arrives at the Drum Tower to see Stannis port studying the map on the painted table.
This was a nice chance to show the majesty of the painted table. The last time I did this location it was only a small detail that Stannis was leaning on. Not getting into how badly I got Westeros itself, I’m happy with this. I like the contrast, in fact, I almost wish that I had broken out the markers and done jet black instead of the hatching. So, I now have another candidate for a color piece.

At the very top of Stone Drum, within the great round room called the Chamber of the Painted Table, they found Stannis Baratheon standing behind the artifact that gave the hall its name, a massive slab of wood carved and painted in the shape of Westeros as it had been in the time of Aegon the Conqueror. An iron brazier stood beside the king, its coals glowing a ruddy orange. Four tall pointed windows looked out to north, south, east, and west. Beyond was the night and the starry sky. Davos could hear the wind moving, and fainter, the sounds of the sea.
