A Storm of Swords – Leeches

Melisandre brings out the leeches she used to take blood samples from Edric Storm to perform some blood magic with. This one allowed me to do the portrait of Stanis, now gaunt from what we assume is making shadow babies.

Unfortunately, I don’t think I made Stanis quite as gaunt as described in this scene.
In hindsight, I think this might have worked better if I zoomed out farther, but if I had done that, I wouldn’t be able to focus on the brazier or the leeches.
