Doodles Of Me Trying (emphasis On Trying) To Make Jaskiers Clothes More Book Accurate. I Also Referenced

Doodles of me trying (emphasis on trying) to make jaskier’s clothes more book accurate. I also referenced a lot of 15th century Italian clothing since they’re very colorful.

Found an old doodle of geralt and dandelion. enjoy,

Burdened with the knowledge that bards as a profession have celtic origins and given that The Witcher is set in the 1200's when this would still be true it means Dandelion himself is probably either of celtic birth or education but nobody outside of me probably gives a fuck about that [he also operates more like a celtic bard than a modern one we won't get into all that though] basically what I'm saying is that Dandelion is Welsh to me thank you for listening

I wanna do dandelion doodles, pls give me your ideas and wishes. I'll draw almost anything (especially if they're silly and camp)

I wanna do Witcher doodles in general but I haven't done a base design for a lot of characters yet where as I think I could probably draw geralt or dandelion with my eyes closed by now

One day when I have enough free time to properly sit down and focus on it, I'm gonna do a concept project on how I'd adapt the Witcher :3 for fun.

I have a lot of thoughts on it and fun ways I could make it visually interesting. I don't know if I'd ever share it because I worry that my personal readings of the books and how I'd portray them probably wouldn't be favourable and I'm sensitive to rejection around my special interests.

But I think it truly deserves so much better, I'm forever bitter with the Netflix adaptation. I don't think their character designs and costuming are strong nor do they clearly communicate the characters personalities imo. I also need an adaptation in which the cultural context of the stories is held with the importance it deserves and not completely thrown out to appease a western audience. Similarly with the writing and pacing I feel it was really lacking. Also I want to put more colour into it because I'm personally tired of the grungy fantasy aesthetics.

I do really like more experimental and theatrical approaches to film tho, playing with what maybe isn't accurate to real life but evokes feeling and whismy. So I'd really want to play around with that, though im only trained as a concept artist. It's not like I'd be pitching it to anyone though at the end of the day, would be entirely for fun.

i know its to introduce us to him but why would she say those things when geralt alrdy knows all that ? i hc she wanted to insult him so bad but couldnt do that in the temple so she simply said those as the holiest insults she could muster, accidentally complimenting him in the process
