Glokta, you old charmer! How handsome and debonair you look this evening!!!
I love me some Ardee and Glokta. I like the idea of them taking walks in the park and just mocking the shit out of everyone they see. Generally I imagine the fashions in the city to be like...a slutty Victorian with a horrible rococo palette, but something about the way Ardee was always described just made me think of Lizzie Bennet. That contrast inspired my "regency vs. rococo" before I figured out I just wanted to draw some fanart hahaha And I love the idea that the two least innocent people in this city just go around wearing white all the time. It's just too good.
Characters are from the First Law trilogy, which, as always, I highly recommend.
p.s. please full-view for the intended colors. Damn that compression is a bitch.

Sta.sh
love your art btw.
I do have to agree and say that I would like to see glokta in slightly darker clothes (but hey, you wanted to get a point across and it's pretty ironic to see them "saintly"), I actually imagined him to be much more gaunt too! However, I love the expression in this piece (as i've noticed in your other work) and find that subdued background to be very fitting for this. I'm very happy to have stumbled upon this!
