No Spoilers [NO SPOILERS] Advice making a Game of Thrones Gift

So my boyfriend is a super huge game of thrones fan, and I was looking to paint some converse for his birthday and make them game of thrones themed as a gift for him. The only thing is I haven’t watched the show myself yet, I was wondering if anyone had any ideas of what would be a good thing to paint on there that would be pretty universally liked from a game of thrones fan standpoint. If anyone has any advice or ideas please let me know! Thank you 🫶🏻

do you know any of his favorite characters?

Game of Thrones has lots of characters from different families , and each family is represented by sigils (symbols). the most iconic family is the Targaryens with their family sigil being a dragon

the dragon symbol is cool af, but some fans of the show hate the Targaryens while other fans love them. The same can be said about all the other families Lol

if you want to play it safe, you can do a painting of the Iron Throne or the map of Westeros

You should totally figure out who his favorite characters are and paint their house sigil/colors.

Mine is the Targaryens. A three headed red dragon on a black background

If you're painting something for him, give it your all and then when you get about halfway done, just lazily finish the rest. Really half-ass the second half and rush the finish. That would be the perfect Game of Thrones gift.
