I suppose that calls for an obligatory mention of Keith Thompson's art for Scott Westerfeld's Leviathan trilogy.

It disappoints me that Hollywood has yet to do an adaptation of a Westerfeld work, either Leviathan or Uglies. They're the only YA dystopians I'm actually interested in seeing on the big screen.

Leviathan kind of let me down because it has this great potential between the setting and little details here and there, but ends up just being a typical YA travelogue adventure story. The ending comes about so abruptly and with a few loose ends that I can't help but feel like there should have been one or two more books that got cut. Ultimately I guess I'll just forever long for something more developed and mature to really fill out the whole 'dieselpunk v. biopunk World War' concept.

Anyone have any depictions of magic or the supernatural being used for completely mundane tasks in a modern setting? I'm talking things like food preparation, taking out the garbage, office work, whatever. Anything you would expect a random nobody to be doing in their day-to-day life, only with some sort of magical or supernatural element.

That hair, That ruff, those sleeves; amazing. Although on my phone, I first mistook the sleeves as giant muscly arms, which also works well I guess.

The Abhorsen trilogy is a young adult fantasy series that ages immensely well and is a joy to read. Strong female protagonist too, a bit early before it became a Thing.

From a few pages back, but...This is a colourized photo quote:The monk pictured in the above photo, taken in 1925, seems to be performing the dance known as Durdak Garcham, “Dance of the Lords of the Cemetery.” The dance celebrates the liberation that comes from acceptance of our impermanence.

I need more pictures of horizon-spanning monstrosities. Creatures of unimaginably vast size and utterly alien, enormous, yet pictured from a great distance - so far that they're practically only visible as silouettes. Stuff like these: Or pretty much every Eldrazi from MTG.

You should totally check out the art for the new MtG block Khans of Tarkir. Some good examples here: EDIT: Also, none cheesecake warrior lady, from the set. STANKBALLS TASTYLEGS fucked around with this message at 09:39 on Oct 26, 2014 |

Grand Prize Winner posted:Wesnoth question: I seem to remember older versions having more cartoony portraits. Were those yours, too? If so, can ya post some? Most of these aren't drawn by me (the Dwarves and the Drakes are the two big sets I did, plus a few singles, incidentals and campaigns here and there), the majority of the portraits are drawn by an artist called Kitty. (Her full name is in the credits, but I forget it offhand). A lot of the rest are by another great artist who goes/went by LordBob. I don't have easy online access to many of the older portraits any more, but you should be able to find them by downloading older versions of the game. The older certoony portraits were mostly deprecated but a few do still hang around in odler campaigns. Under the Burning Suns, in particular, has a bunch of the decent older-style portraits: https://github.com/wesnoth/wesnoth/tree/master/data/campaigns/Under_the_Burning_Suns/images/portraits
