Results Day #4 - King Richard Armitage Fan-Art: RIIKKA





The King Richard Armitage Website (KRA) is highlighting the artwork and the artists who contributed to the Fan-Art Event in October.

Today the KRA artist in the spotlight is:


Riikka

To read a wonderful interview with the artist and really see her beautiful work plus a lovely video of Riikka's art and stories by CDoart go to the King Richard Armitage site at the links below:


Riikka's inspiration is the historical King Richard III of England, but her artwork and stories have a definite fantasy element. King Richard rides again after the Battle of Bosworth as a ghost.  


Below are only a few examples of Riikka's work, you can see much more by going to the KRA website.



Riikka was inspired by the historical king, but I can see a resemblance with Richard Armitage as Guy of Gisborne not only physically but in the aura of the character as well.














Maybe Riikka's work, and the work of all the KRA fan artists will inspire the look of a future Richard III series with RA.
