Artist's Comments

Back from Mexico, boo. :(

I shall get to commenting on friends' artwork ASAP... starting tomorrow. xD

This is Keladry of Mindelan again, with Lord Raoul of Goldenlake on the left and Domitan of Masbolle on the right. :heart: Lord Raoul is captain of the King's Own, Dom is a sergeant, and Keladry is Raoul's personal squire. I like Dom a lot <3 Although he was difficult to draw. :x Someone requested a while ago that I draw Kel and Dom on horseback together... well, I'm working on it (kinda, up in my head), aaaaand we'll see. I think it'd make for a cute picture too. :>

I tried using other people's fanart of Raoul as reference for my version... I dunno, I just remember that he had curly hair and was a big, big, big guy.... :< And Dom is handsome. <3

I like these three a lot! I wish Tamora Pierce (the author of the Protector of the Small quartet) would write more about them, and soon.... ;)

Drawn at work today (kekeke) and fiddled around with in Photoshop CS3. I wanted to ink and tone this, but I got home and I had a huge headache... fughhh, so, yeah. Photoshop it is. Sowee :<

I know Kel's primary weapon is the glaive but she rocks with just about any weapon, right?! And...

*SPOILER*

...she gets this kick-ass katana from the King's Champion, Alanna, right?!?! <3 <3

/End Spoiler Alert

And yeah, that's the castle in Tortall behind them! (I guess...) Photo stolen from :icondinkthemushroom:'s collection of Poland pics... which I have... which I haven't really asked for permission to use like this yet... I will ask tomorrow when he's online again >_>;; Hope he'll forgive me and let me use it... <3

BEDTIME! xD;;;

You're so pro-status. :D I really love their hair and just the whole sketchy but still nicely rendered look of it.

Wow, this is really great! Great job!! Hey, is it just me and my weird way of thinking, or would Dom and Kel make a good couple? If they weren't so oblivious, of course...

Team Niether. Selene would fuck Jacob and Edward up!

Yeah, I've been to the dark side--They lied about the cookies.

Bitchy?! Sorry, I wasn't taught how to say 'FUCK YOU' politely.

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH. This is my favorite series, but the boys have beards. Its the fashion when Kel's in training. LOOOVE Raoul, but his thing with missy Cap't Queens Own was a little weird for me.
