Odds and Ends

Hello, i go by T-Duck! Drawing the Odds and Ends of Arthuriana and Other Assorted Medieval Lit. I post a comic called Knights am I Right every week! Just have a look in the Knights am I Right tag for more!

Last of the #kriksiswoodlandart drawings! This is pretty complex for me, so I took ages working on it on and off (clearly more off than on, which is what I do when I find a drawing difficult ๐Ÿ˜ญ).

Anyway: this is Gawain and Kundry (or Orgeluse, or l'Orgueilleuse de Logres), a couple for whom the sailing is definitely not smooth, but who find each other in the end.

Gawain is my favourite and I love him dearly, but I actually love Kundry/Orgeluse/Orgueilleuse for being very rude to him and calling him out on Knightly Stuff. She's Luned/Linnet/Lynette levels of rude and mean, and I just enjoy that in a medieval female character ๐Ÿ˜ฌ.

Gwineu Goddwf Hir: one of the Three Spirited Horses of the Isle of Britain, a category which also includes Gringolet/Ceincaled; the horse ridden by Sir Kay/Cai ("Triads of the Horses") Cath Palug: the legendary giant aquatic cat who killed nine score warriors according to "Pa Gur"; said to have been fought and usually slain by Cai, Arthur, Ogier the Dane, and others in various sources in various languages Could Cai's calamitous colt kill the callously clawed colossal cat Cai killed, that is the question.

Since it's April fools I'll share some fun facts about my character designs.

I give sir Kay a horrible fringe to hide the fact he's balding.

His hair was also turning white in his early twenties that's why when bedivere had some white hairs he was going to point out that they're finally going to have the same hair colour Kay's hair was dyed a disgusting pink cause someone decided to stuff up his hair dye
