Description
On tumblr: whimsycatcher.tumblr.com/post/…Hi! I’ll be posting this and a couple other WIPs today. They’re not finished, but they’re over a year old so I thought I better share them as they are before I forget they exist - but I hope you enjoy them still! I just never got around to finishing them, and doubt I ever will. I’ll be busy with other fanart ideas, haha… ha… Oh, what is my life?
A little about this piece: I started this when the final few episodes had yet to be aired and my head was floating with ideas about how Merlin’s magic would be revealed - and how Arthur would react! I decided to depict this angsty outcome… Well, I definitely bit off more than I could chew by going for such a level of realism - and by using colour in place of my usual grayscale palette. It looks near done but there’s still much to refine. Colin’s teeth, hair, and eyelashes are what finally had me give up and put this file on the shelf! Boo!

Hello! Your art was featured here:
Feature for Merlin artHello, my dear friends!
You know, "Merlin" (BBC) is one of my favest TV-series. I love it sooo very much!
"Merlin" is fascinating, so interesting and gorgeous TV-series with great and very talented actors!
Colin Morgan and his character Merlin are just wonderful, brave, kind and handsome! Love them, love Merlin's smile and his magic eyes!
"Merlin" inspired me to drew many arts about this amazing story, and will inspire me in the future.
If you have not watched this TV-series - watch it. You won't regret, I'm sure.
This story is really incredible and will take a place in your heart.
So, I want to show you in this feature a wonderful collection of Merlin art from amazing dA artists!
I chosen the most impressing and beautiful arts from my Merlin faves.
You can find all of my Merlin faves in my big collection

Thank you, Nick! Really appreciate your thoughts. I'm probably just my worst critic, as many artists are... Besides nitpicking the hell out of this, I was just planning to give his hair some highlights - and I must pinpoint that I did not give him any lower eyelashes, lol! Well I'm pleased that you like everything else so much! <3
