Laranthir of the Wild | 2026 Paintover (sketch\/not final)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

My time has been occupied by trying to squeeze in as many final edits to the book as I’m able to – which has involved some painting, and made me feel like like doing a small paintover of one of my older Laranthir artworks today. I’m not sure if I’ve ever posted the original before, because I wasn’t happy with how it turned out. Above is the paintover from this morning, and the original version is in the full post below: <\/p>\n

\"Laranthir<\/a>
Laranthir of the Wild – Original version (older art)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

My problems with the original are mainly I found the pose disinteresting. When looking at it again this morning, I tried to correct some proportional errors in the original, which I think moderately helped the pose feel slightly less stagnant. <\/p>\n

I don’t consider the paintover “finished,” but I’m not sure I’ll take this one further, because there is another Laranthir painting I would like to finish sometime. :D And that I think has a much better foundational pose. <\/p>\n

But that is for the future, after books are printed! <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
