Best Artworks of ASOIAF


EggBlue

Recommended Posts

I really like this picture of the Hound because a) the scars looks really cool, and b) it's one of the few fanarts I've seen of him that is based on the books rather than the show (younger, black hair, etc.)

Preston Jacobs uses images from various artists, but one I can recognize is The Mico, who does wonderful cartoony renderings of hundreds of ASOIAF characters.

I came to mention this guy. Bumped into his artwork through Facebook (to be honest, I just watched the 1000 worlds reviews by Jacobs, so I didn't know he used Mico's depictions in his videos aswell). I think he captures fairly well some characters; the rest are just cool.

As an addenda: the depictions of the fight between Rhaegar Targaryen and Bobby Baratheon are generally awesome.

I would say it's a tie between Dragonstone and High Tide.

I agree with you @The Bard of Banefort.

 

Poor George has been wrapping up asoiaf history in mysteries, yet, it seems it's being wrapped up in comedy more and more everyday...

This isn't technically artwork, but I really like these ASOIAF-women-as-Greek-goddesses collages:

I'm torn on who matches with which goddess, but there are a few I agree with:

Arya - Nemesis

Sansa - Persephone (being that she's both a goddess of spring and the underworld)

Arianne - Aphrodite

Ygritte - Artemis (mostly for the archery)

Brienne - Nike

Olenna - Demeter (being the Lady of the Reach and all)

I'm not sure if Cersei or Dany are Hera (Eris also works for Cersei). Either Eos or Hecate works for Melisandre. Ceto and Athena both work for Asha. I'm not sure about either Margaery or Catelyn.

Arya is totally Nemesis :) I think Hera would work for Catelyn(hating Jon and all that).

Alright, Hera for Catelyn then. With that in mind, I think I’d put the rest as Cersei/Eris (although the other Circe also works I suppose), Asha/Ceto, Dany/Athena (what with her conquering ancient cities and all).

Margaery is the hard one. Maybe Iris, the goddess of rainbows? Or Calliope, the goddess of poetry (since she loves singers and poets)?

good call for Dany/Athena... I think Demeter works for Margery better than Olenna. but Calliope is good too. Gaia could be a better fit for Olenna , I suppose .since she's more ruthless...

oh and while Persephone is a good match for Sansa , I think she could be Stark family's Hestia later on:)

I looked it up, and there’s apparently a Greek goddess of flowers named Chloris. I think that would be good for Margaery.

Yeah, the Hound’s bastards could pass for his. Plus he’ll have Loras. It’s a good way to spend his golden years :D

Man, people who stumble on this thread are going to be so confused lol.
