This is an illustration for Fantasy Flight Games collectible card game named A Game of Thrones, which is based on the world of best-selling author George R.R. Martin’s A Song of Ice & Fire.

The character is Tormund Giantsbane, and he is a big wildling. He is a loudmouthed braggart who always tells crazy stories about all the incredible things he’s done. And yet he’s strangely likeable, and his stories are a lot of fun to listen to.

Illustrations for card games like this always have short deadlines, and are supposed to be viewed on a smaller scale than here.
