Walk of Atonement-Sketch
Added 2019-08-14 22:27:05 +0000 UTCSo Tumblr is having a House Lannister appreciation week, and I've been wanting to illustrate the scene from this quote for AGES:
"She did not feel beautiful, though. She felt old, used, filthy, ugly. There were stretchmarks on her belly from the children she had borne, and her breasts were not as firm as they had been when she was younger. Without a gown to hold them up, they sagged against her chest. 'I should not have done this. I was their queen, but now they've seen, they've seen, they've seen. I should never have let them see.' Gowned and crowned, she was a queen. Naked, bloody, limping, she was only a woman, not so very different from their wives, more like their mothers than their pretty little maiden daughters. 'What have I done?' "
I saw a post discussing this on Twitter about how it would have been more impactful if Lena Headey's body double had a less conventionally attractive body, which I really agree with, but lets not talk about the show making scenes impactful since they decided to go below the bar of expectation every single time. lmao
EDIT: Got rid of Cersei's hair, and gave a little more life to the background figures!

Ooh no, thank you for pointing that out! I wasn't sure if they'd shaved it all the way down or not bc it's been a while! I'll adjust that though!

2019-08-14 22:32:09 +0000 UTCI don’t know if you’re going for the show version or the book version, but in the books I think the septas shaved her head completely, if that’s what you’re going for illustrating. (I hope it’s not rude to comment, I think this is really gorgeous!)
