All Men Must Die

The idea for this illustration was conceived when a friend approached me wanting a mural to be done in his house. Originally, we did not have anything in mind but after a lengthy (and fruitful) discussion about the latest (and many) ordeals to fall upon the land of Westeros, our mutual affection for the Game of Thrones tv series lead us to the obvious: DUDE IT CAN BE A GAME OF THRONES MURAL!

I approached this illustration with the composition being my main concern. I wanted things to flow nicely from top to bottom, and after making a quick sketch I came up with the final version of where I wanted the elements to be. I placed them in a zigzag pattern trying to balance it all out and not have one side feel heavier than the other.

Now all that is left is to copy it on the wall...sigh






And after a little photoshop..
